nice
very good post TP and yea pretty much agree with all the swa stuff you said, since all my blowups I have learned to control myself to a point. Do I have a gambling problem? most would say yes, myself I don't really know....maybe. I think JD just loves to gamble which is exactly what I used to feel, lately though the gamble part has gone away and the controlling my bankroll has set in.
I actually do have a suggestion in all this though, I think you should take out alot of your bankroll and leave just enough in to say play 2/4 NL and at end of each week withdraw. So lets say you want to stay at the level 2/4 NL you need 20 buyin for that so that would be 8k right? OK so end of week take out all the money over 8k, this is what Chuck and I plan on doing with our bankrolls but we are playing at much smaller scale and playing limit.
something BB said awhile ago rings true, I used to say how bored I was playing low limits and he said it shouldn't matter what level Imam playing with as long as I'm playing, playing poker is playing poker no matter what level you are at. I actually don't have any money on line right now and like I said earlier this month I don't want to play until next month and I'm sticking to that and wont deposit till beginning of next month but when I do deposit I will be playing real low limit like $1-$5 and $3 re-buys, $3 re-buy satties, .25/.50 limit ( yes I said limit, I like this game its easy and with my $600 bankroll I'm well bankrolled for it) I will never go broke playing this level and poker is poker right?
I hope to one day show that I'm not the same SWA player I was in the past but I'm man enough to admit that I earned that name from my past.
