Bad BR management fails.... and then totally redeems itself!

[Swatched]

So today started out like any other day, with a little bit of bored 1 tabling 100PLO. Some days I win a buyin or two, and other days I lose 1 buyin, get pissed off, and move up to 400NL or 400PLO to regain my lost $100 as fast as possible!

Now, most days I end off there, but some days that doesn't go well and of course I am forced to move up to 5/10 NL to regain my lost $500. I've done this several times successfully, but today was different. TODAY I HAVE ACHIEVED THE FOURTH LEVEL!!

If you are wondering what that is, it is of course fullstacking 10/20 NL to regain my lost $1500. I start off badly, and am quickly stuck $2000 total. I reload and many hands later I've inched my way up to $2500... That's when this beauty happened.

It's good to hear that "move up to chase your losses" isn't just a pretty saying for some people... [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Yeah but the turn wasn't my whole BR. If it was that'd just be reckless.

Edit: Seriously though, I has a read.
