You really are an idiot aren't you?
Good luck.
I for one don't want to hear even one post from you if (and more than likely when) you bust out, assuming you are playing over your head.... and it sounds like you may well be doing just that.

actully chip im about $100-$200 under what im supposed to be at to play the level I'am playing. I dont think that is stupid if I lose money and drop down to $600 then I drop back down to $1-$2. Now if i where to stay at $2/$4 with $600 yes that would be stupid but I dont think $1,000 is too little to play $2/$4.

I think $1000 is fine to play $2/4 - but don't be surprised when you take 4-5 big hands on the chin. Not to mention when you start missing some of those draws...

I dont draw anymore...unless I got a draw to the nutflush and straight im not messing with it. Loses money in long run sir, most money ive made is from people trying to hit there's. Yes I have seen the hits and I have gotten them, lost close to $60 when I first started playing tonight now im up close to $100.

I have learned to deal with the swings and to stop drawing to stupid hands that hit seldom and most likley are already beat. I used to draw to flushes and straights no matter what and lost tons of money doing it. Even when board is paired I use to draw to them. Also used to never raise and play stupid which I have stopped, now im not saying im some great player now but I play alot smarter now.

It sounds like Brian is having a very good week. Like you, I'm waiting for next week, when QQ doesn't rock and his draws don't hit.

I hope you keep winning B, but realize, it's only a matter of time until the tides start turning. I'm not the first (or last) to warn you of playing outside your limits.

It takes a lot of discipline to DROP DOWN when you're on a losing streak. Most players UP the stakes because they want to win money back. Don't take this as an insult, but I definitely see you being one of those players.

Back to my NJ bar application.

maybe I used to be but I got this bankroll by moving up levels one by one and im not about to lose it too some stupid shit like that. I agree with you totally that 6 months if I took a hit and lost $400 i would go to 3/6 and try to win it back. I can honestly say I would go down no problem at all!

not arguing with you at all and no im not even close to a great player but I have seen improvement and that is all I want. I feel real comfortable at this level and plan on staying here for a long long time no matter what my bankroll is.

Brian,
Are you playing stictly limit, NL, or switching it up?

I am considering giving NL ring a try. but I can feel that i would go in a bit unsure of myself and I know that can be a recipe for disaster right there. $25 NL tables, hmm, do you all think I should give it a shot. How soft, aggressive, whatever are these at Party?
