I started the day off at NL100 and was running extremely bad "WHAT THE FUCK" bad, lol.

After winning back alot of my loses, I was looking at the NL200 tables and saw most of the tables were full of half-stacked donks.

I pondered on playing with the NL100 pla<x>yers grinding for there rent money, or playing with NL200 half-stacked donks and took the better choice.

During this decision, I told myself if I drop below $3k I'll move down to NL50 6max during the day and NL100 at night.

The session started out with me dropping to $2950 and a decision. I decided to play a little longer, and if I lost anymore I would drop down immediately. Luckily for me, the tables stopped abusing me and I finally swung up.

This was a great day for me, I learned how to play the dimension at these tables very well, and crushed on multiple tables. I finished the day with a $1,308 stack on one table, and multiple $400 stacks on others.

I'm going to continue to play NL200 6max, with great table selection and try to avoid as many regs as possible.

Heres my stats from today;

During current Hold'em session you were dealt 2619 hands and saw flop:
- 169 out of 499 times while in big blind (33%)
- 64 out of 499 times while in small blind (12%)
- 155 out of 1621 times in other positions (9%)
- a total of 388 out of 2619 (14%)
Pots won at showdown - 62 of 102 (60%)
Pots won without showdown - 408

and a few nice pots;

I'm having as much fun playing now as when I just started out, and look forward to learning to beat the NL100/NL200 6max games everyday.

Time for a break,
GL everyone,

when you begin with not following through with your decision to move down is what concerns us i think. what if you got cold decked and lost more buyins?

You'd not only be down the 5 buyins from 100 but now you're down maybe 1-1.5k total.

imo stick with a strict bankroll management. I dont think anyone on LP wants anyone else hurting there BR's and you're really on the line.

Seems like everytime you have a bad start to a session, you quit and play the next level up. So far its worked out, but it could have just as easily been the opposite. Be careful bro. BW at 200nl.
