Take a shot...or slow grind?

I'm sick of reading of i turned 50 into 8k in a week posts, they life tilt me.

I'm at 300 on UB right now and want to take a shot at 25NL, with 9 buy ins(ish). I am afraid i'll play to nitty, and i don't want to go on a 3 buy in swing when this happens. What should i do and what are your past stories on taking shots?

thanks in adv,

IJ

my thought is, that if you dont mind redepositing/are able to then go for it.

If you have a steady income, be aggressive with your bankroll.

I don't have a job and parents dont want me working during college(and frankly i dont wanna work in two weeks, when i leave).

I wouldn't then. Wait til 450 or something, it sounds lik eyou'd have a hard time re-depositing if you lost

yeah i would like to but rents are on my back and money is tight being at a private college.

So take a slow grind, work on your game, then own nl25. There's really no rush.

I'm just eager and kinda mad at those who get 1k weeks in with 50 deps.

They'll be kinda mad in just over a month when you're scoring 1k weeks every week and they're busto and redepositing 50 again.
