Well, I guess I'll bring to life a dead thread, just cause I am bored at work.

As some people may know, I bit the bullet and stayed away from the 20/40 game from Feb until the beginning of June, focusing on building my bankroll (and confidence) at the 8/16 game.

The first time I 'took a shot' at the 20/40 game, I was trying way too hard. I was being overly aggressive, and not letting the table come to me. I learned from that, and have been much more successful up there now.

Of course some of it is running good, but rarely do I look around and pick out more than 2 people who are better than me, which means I should be a favorite in the game.

I have been running so well, that Howard keeps hinting at me to take a shot at the 40/80 game, but not yet.

I am glad I kept at the 8/16 game instead of trying to force a new game on the location. It has also made me feel better about my game, being able to win at the 20/40.

Again, sorry to bring up a dead thread, kinda bored at work.
