Isnt it crazy how poker works. Not to long ago i was tilting out of my mind. Down 1k b4 lunch, up 600 b4 breakfast the next day. Actually i should even say dollar amounts because thats a huge leak in peoples (myself included) game. Down 10buy ins b4 lunch up 6 buy ins before breakfast the next day.
*warning....rounders quote coming up*
So ive been grinding 100nl for just under a year. I take it for granted how I beat the game, then overspend in my life cuz "meh im overrolled for 100nl and beat it at an ok rate" Then i withdraw money that i really dont need and blow it on bs.
Ive been very careful with my bankroll management, but ive come to realize, as i do every so often that "If you're too careful, your whole life can become a fuckin' grind" and because of this, combined with the fact that i feel very confident in my game, im giving 200nl a shot once again. Im not sure at what point ill cut it off if things go bad. Maybe at -3 buy ins, maybe at -10. No more than 10 for sure, but who knows. I feel like my game has advanced a lot and i feel like im more ready to move up than i was when i tried previously.
So no more being to careful for awhile, hopefully things stick and in a month or two ill be overrolled for 200nl. I really feel good about this shot and thats after i just had a pretty swingy day at it but ended up down less than 50bb.
Just like with everything in poker, take what i say with a grain of salt and apply it as u see fit.
Gl to me at my 200nl shot and GL to you at achieving ur goals
