Up & Down Week

What it week it's been. With a starting banroll of $400 i was up to $600 before playing a couple of tournaments and playing badly at the cash tables and before i knew it i was down to $300. From there some sick beats and a couple more tournaments saw me down to my last $8 !! I put that into a $0.15/25 game and made it $60. Then a stt here and there and a injection of $100 (dont tell anyone) leaves me sitting at $350.

I've learnt a few thigs this week that should help me to maintain a healthy bankroll.

One thing is that i have no discipline. I WANT TO PLAY TOURNAMENTS. SO i will, going cold turkey didnt work, but only with money i make as profit.

2ndly i learnt that multitabling isnt effective fro me. I make bad plays on both tables so i'm gonnna stick to paying 100% attention to 1 table rather than half-assedly playing two.

3rdly i realsied that when i give 100% i'm actually pretty good. It's when i'm not really that interested that i do badly. THerefore i'm only gonna play when i'm hungry. Playing when bored at the weekend cost me over $100.

So for this week i have $350 whgich is 7 buy-ins at $0.25/50. It's not ideal but i'm confident that if i'm playing ta my best then i should only lose a buy-in to a badbeat or a cold deck. I'm gonna look to make $50 per day so by next thursday i should be sitting on $550.
