Tried nl 200 - total disaster - Page 2

I took shot after shot and won at every level for like 3 months. Then one day I lost 4 BI at 25/50. "Mega standard" they all told me but that doesn't help your confidence. Move back down, build back up and try again. 4 BI should not tilt you at 1/2 with a 6k roll. I also had a theory that when I was losing at one level I would just move up one level higher nit up and wait to hit a sweet flop or cooler someone for a pot that made me a break even day. Amazingly it always worked.....until you go to 25/50 and start losing. Then there really isn't any FR tables running to try and get even at.

everytime i take shots at higher limits i lose, and it was like that everytime since NL200 .

when i went to NL200 i thought it was unbeatable, when i went up to NL400 i thought it was unbeatable, NL600 never was a problem for some reason... when i moved up to NL1k i thought it was un beatable, now I think NL2k and NL5k are unbeatable =[

so i would just say don't worry, it happens a lot, next time when u take a shot maybe use a stop loss of 2 or 3Bis ( I know ppl that use 1 Bi stop loss) and always play your game, don't try to play different just cuz it's another limit, it's the same game

i dont take shots, just move up and never move back down that is why i always have 100BI for a level.

if the money goes to your head you MUST move down until you're comfortable playing for more and more monies.

Any decent NL200 regular will stomp on you if the money matters to you/scares you or what not because even if you're "good" enough and have enough knowledge of the game to beat NL200 if the money still makes you shake then i'd bet against you being a winning player at that stake.

BTW I am not recommending that as it is definitely bad BR management.

Take your shots on Fri/sat/sun and game select hard: there are tons of games then at the stake higher than your normal stake which are much easier than your normal stake on a tuesday afternoon.
