Your biggest winning session is 50BB? Do you just quit when you win 50BB or something?

Sadly yes! Like a moron anytimes I got over $150 I counted it as a good day and quit! Often this would happen after just 200-300 hands. I didn't play scared poker in respect of hands but did in respect of not wanting to ruin a good session.

That is bad. Read Malmuths Gambling Theory and Other Topics. Any kind of stop win or stop loss is bad because you are inevitably leaving in some profitable situations when you do not need to leave yet.
