        <title>Struggling with Moving Up</title>
        <link>http://drawingthin.liquidpoker.net</link>
        <description>Moved up to NL50 6max at end of July with a bankroll of about 1.4k.
Its been really swingy so far.  One day Im up 2 BI, the next day I lose it right back.

Been running somewhat bad (I think) but definitely playing REALLY BAD.

The problem is that I'm way more passive in NL50 than in NL25.  When the passive fish (you know the 70/2 type)
start raising postflop and the pot starts getting big, I get the shit scared out of me.  I either slow down or fold
when I know very well I should be shoving.

Here are my stats which is pretty fugly.

Im running at 17/13 when i usually do 19/16 at nl25 so I'm definitely more passive. I dont like my 3bet %... I didnt get
alot of AA,KK,QQ,AK in these runs but I'm also not 3betting light either.  my WTSD is so low its scary so Im giving up too easily.

I have tons of leaks in my game.  I definitely need help but Im not sure which resource is best for me.  A coach will be pretty expensive which I probably cant afford.  CR/DC/Leggo sub seem to be more geared towards MSNL.  I really think I need a few live sweat sessions and/or go over HH

Cheers

I dont even know why I still do these 16 FR table grind sessions.  They're just not fun, I'm not learning anything autopiloting and I'm not making any money anymore.

This month has been a real eye opener.  I'm doing 4 tables of 6max from now on and loving it.  I'll probably put in another 10k hands @ NL25 6max which will hopefully get my PS bankroll to 1.5k and I'll move up to NL50 6max.

Also, I've been thinking about getting a subscription to either CR or Leggo but its kinda a big hit to my BR.  I have about 1.4k on PS and 1.8k on FTP but I think I need to withdraw the FTP money for personal expenses.

Is it a good time to get a subsription or should I wait til I'm consistently playing NL50 or NL100.

Cheers

        <title>First 6max session</title>
        <link>http://drawingthin.liquidpoker.net</link>
        <description>Sick of 16-24 tables autopiloting nitring.  I turned off my HUD and did only 5-6 tables for about 2 hours and really concentrated on each decision.

Could someone take a quick look at my stats and see if theres are any huge mistakes? 

It is clear tho that I was playing way too tight.  I need to learn to loosen up.  I think some FR regulars play 16/13.
