I have decided to go down one level to try to get a handle of my discipline problems. I really think that the lower levels will help teach me how to fold. It is at these levels that everyone goes for those gut-shot draws, or will call that one more $.05 just because, and this is the thing that I have the problem with.
I am playing too many hands, any paint I think is good, but the fact is that it is so easy to be out kicked, or have a flush on the river, or a bigger two pair. Something like Q8o looks good to me these days when I am on the button, so I am thinking that I am going to lose the money.
At the lower levels I will be able to discipline my play and will not really have to worry about the lose of my bankroll to the same point. At the level that I was playing I could have one session that I lost 20% of my bankroll, even though my roll is not at the level that I really care about.
Once I am winning again at this level, and have my vp$ip, w$sd and w$sf at the levels that I, and the “experts”, think are at levels that show the right discipline, I will move up one more level for another 500 hands or when I feel that I am back on track. From there I will be able to analyze where my bankroll is and whether or not I should be looking to moving up a level, or start building where I am at today.
After this current session that I am playing I will post a quick summary and will show the points where my discipline was lacking.
