Re: What you are Doing Wrong as an SSNLer
good post man, thanks very much! I really needed some motivation to start being more aggressive with moving up (considering I'm wayy over-rolled for 1/2).

Re: What you are Doing Wrong as an SSNLer
Great post.
I especially agree with reviewing sessions...Except I do it while playing and think about it continually. I hate making mistakes, it drives me nuts. Even if I'm down 4 buyins and haven't made a single error, I'm still happier than having made a whole swing of mistakes and being breakeven. Every time I make a mistake and lose my stack, I force myself to learn a lesson so that it was not for naught. If I lose $200, then it was a $200 lesson that I had to learn. Hopefully, I won't do it again...but I probably will. Then it will be a $400 lesson. And then a $600 lesson. Some lessons just cost more, but I will eventually learn it and stop losing money that way. Just pay attention to what is 'right' and what is 'wrong'. And when you don't know anymore, post here, in 2p2. You'll find out.

I would be willing to guess the time trying to get better vs the time playing is very low in your case. Maybe try to shift that ratio a little bit and see what happens.
