if my memory serves me right you had a great run a month or two ago at higher stakes and stayed there.

Could you share your thoughts on shot taking?

So the funny thing is that whenever I moved up I played looser and more aggressive. I played a nitty 19/15 at 100NL. I've played 30/25 so far this month at 5/10. My stats just kept getting looser as I moved up. I think I got looser because I managed to not play with money, but I played with chips.

Also, the villains I was playing against didn't know what the [censored] i was doing while i was running them over. Eventually they adjusted, and that led to a temporary downswing.

As for actual shot taking... just man up when you are playing well (not BBV style chasing losses), play one or two tables and put a tenth of your bankroll on the line. If it goes well, keep playing a couple of tables at most until you are comfortable. Don't play with money, play with BBs.
