i used to be ok at this game.

apparently i suck these days.

crash and burno busto busto. 2k roll down to $623 and playing a very strict movedown br system (IOW always playing the highest stakes I can afford and moving up and down accordingly). I always reinvest rakeback into my roll. This is the second time a cliff dive like this has foccurred. The first time my roll dropped from 2kish to around $600. I took a week off, thought about the game, read some, and then dove back in. rebuilt to a little more than 2kish and dipped the toe into the 5/T game. Then crasho busto sucko again. My style hasn't changed. I think tilt accounts for less of these results than leakiness does. I play recreationally and I don't know that I have the stomach to rebuild at limit holdem again.

Things I think I know:

I play an aggressive style pf.
I only ever play two tables at a time.
I tend to start tables if there are no 60% vpip ones available. (there usually aren't)
I don't watch tv or porn or anything else while playing.
I screw up the turn alot
I play the river better then my opposition for the most part.
I play an aggressive br plan (bankroll always = 250bb)
The games have gotten much much worse lately.
Rake at 1/2 is killer.
Tight aggressive loses in loose aggressive games.
Tight aggressive wins in loose passive games.
There aren't many loose passive games online at Stars or WPEX these days.
I play better HU than 6 handed.
I probably play better full ringed than 6 handed.
I don't like playing NL.
I could consider a pot limit or split pot type game.
The nearest live 10/20 game is still heavily raked and is about 90 minutes away.
My wife would kill me if I left every weekend to play poker.
I like poker. Alot.
I have no confidence right now.

alright. done. thx. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
