| I really need to move up... |
Cashing out living expenses, and not grinding enough every month is making this really difficult. I'm trying to live off of $2k a month in cashouts though I didnt have close to that for March, and ended up more less living off of my credit cards, but I just got back on track in the last week, and got my bankroll back up to $2k which is where I feel comfortable with cashing out $1k, so a cheque is on its way.
What I really need is a good combination of grinding like a mofo all April and run godly, while never tilting. Hit a nice break even stretch in March mostly due to suckouts but compounded by tilty plays and just stacking off lighter in the middle of bad sessions. After reviewing my sessions, I realized that a lot of the losing ones could have easily been winning ones of +4buyins or so.
25NL is just such an easy limit to beat and I'm capable of making a really nice hourly rate there that I should be able to get a bit of a bankroll surplus in April. I really dont want to have to cash in any FPP's to do this as I am chasing supernova this year and am hoping to hold out for a bigger score. Right now I have about 50k in fpps. Clearly, cashing in FPP's for the greatest return possible is +EV but if cashing out now and taking a $650 bonus helps facilitate a succesful move up to NL50 this month, then perhaps that is the way I should go because I'm pretty sure I can beat NL50 so long as I am able to handle the swings and the move would certainly speed up my chase for supernova.
I was beating NL50 back in January for about 2ptbb/100 but decided the variance probably caused mostly by tilt wasnt worth it because I was beating NL25 for 5ptbb/100. Might have been a bad choice. Who knows I might have been owning NL100 by now, but perhaps not.
Whatever the case, I have worked on my game a lot, and plugged some leaks by going through my DB in PT3 and running a lot of reports to find out what situations I'm losing money in. |
