kit,
IMO, a bigger BR (30 buys) isn't pansy in the least. You say that your worst downswing has only been 7 buyins- you are very fortunate. I had a 30 buyin roll for 200nl, and on a -10 buyin downswing right now. Bankroll grows faster than skill (aj). Also, you see guys move up perhaps a bit too quickly and get owned. It works sometimes (moving up fast), ie. Grim/cts, but you have to be very lucky and learn at a faster pace than others.

I agree that dropping down in limits is probably the way to go when hitting a rough patch. anyways, just dropping in to give my short opinion, carry on.

You're right, I am quite fortunate that my biggest downswing is 7 buy-ins but I still think aggressively moving up and down limits is a good way to go. Obviously it's not for everyone though. And maybe 30 buy-ins isn't pansy, but it's my blog and i can say whatever I want.
