You are still 1.94BB/100, which is great!
I think there is no need for a cashout, but if you fell better that way, I guess it's OK :)
Better to not play rather than not playing with your A game.

The bankroll only went as far as Moneybookers. It's pretty brutal running at 4BB/100 one month then -9BB/100 for a week. It's hard to wrap your head around that without coming up with some doomswitch theory. :f_p: For at least the next week I'll play some different stuff on other sites when I want to play and figure out what I'll focus on later. :f_cool:

Well... I haven't had a losing session since 14th of April!!!
Since then I have 5BB/100 winrate at 5/10, 3/6, 2/4 and 1/2...

What the hell am I going to do when doomswitch hits me!?!?

I've played little 6max the last 2 weeks and instead goofed around in FL and NL HU, some tourneys, even a little badugi and HU PLO. After all that, I'm pretty sure I still prefer FL and it's my better game - in NL I'm just jamming every other time just for the lolz, even playing some weird minbet NL/sometimes jam it strategy for a few games. :f_biggrin: For now I'm back to 6-max again and have an update for the end of the month.

Except for the little upswing I got when I went back to playing, I'm beat by the river. Didn't get enough hands in to make it to gold again this month but whatever. I minimize the losses once I'm likely beat, but I could minimize that even less by just folding - so I'll just fold everything I guess, not even bother posting the blinds.

Ok, garph of last month.

Alright I'm done at Stars. Nothing I can do but fold everything so that's what I'll do there.

are you serious about the 'riggedness'?

Well, I try not to think that way. I'll do what a normally do - go to another site, run hot right away for a month or two, get doomswitched for a month, go nuts, repeat.

The worst part of my game is playing against opponents of the random bad type. They bet, check, or call with no idea behind what they're doing and lose overall. When they win pots with their super spazy play a few times too many in a session it drives me nuts and I stop playing when I get tilted and lose focus. It's good I know to stop when I'm in the wrong mindset, but downswings last longer in real time.

The other annoying thing is I was so close to having a 2k roll for $2/4. After the bad month, it's no where near as close. :f_cry: And another thing is I'll have to cash out around $500-600 to pay tuition in the next few weeks. I was hoping for more real work before then but never happened. At least it wasn't due to playing too much pokers. :f_cool:

So, I'm not going to play .5/1 (too annoying) so I'll head back to FL HU again for a bit. I'll have 25-30 buy in's for the $20's. But before I jump right in again, I'll get in a groove playing some $5's and $10's.

Started playing again last week. Been playing some NL HU sng's and wow, were they ever a pain in the ass. :f_biggrin: Random bad is one thing in limit, but in NL, it is just making me pull my hair out. I've literally been on the floor, glasses off, one eye closed and the other squinted and open just enough to make out the bet amounts a few times, waiting for this bozo to do something stupid so the game will be over... A lot of the micro stakes players ($5 and under) are on level zero thinking wise - they make plays that they shouldn't with their hand and make plays that they shouldn't based on what I'm likely to have, the result is a lot of wtf, recoiling from the screen, and head shaking on my part. Yeah, maybe it's best to put off NL HU until I can buy into a higher level without it being a risk to the bankroll. :f_biggrin:

Ok, back to limit again. I really like playing but HU NL was not enjoyable, studying it yes, playing the $5's, no.
