So I'm starting to take shots at 100PL/NL for the third time. First time I got kicked from Pokerroom by Frist, cashed out and put the money in my mattress to play live, restarted at 25NL. Second time I hit a horrible 8BI downswing due to thinking I could play 60/40 profitably after some ugly beats. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] This time is going to go better. I bought in short here deliberately for three reasons, one, because when I sat down the only player with more than 75 was a reg I didn't want to play against. Two, I'm trying to get better SPR's per PNL. Three, I'm trying to stay in my comfort zone as I move up.
