Thanks for the advice both of you, I'm going to try hard to internalise that, I think it's the next step I need to take. Now I have my BR under control, I need to work the expectation part, yeah I guess I am too results orientated at the moment. It's been an epicly bad day today down to $18.90, the BR management really does work though - at least I can still play again tomorrow, tomorrows another day though and I'm expecting great things! I've got back up from $8 not so long ago, so am sure I can do it from 18.90 as long as I play at my best.

I'm really growing to admire all of you that are playing the higher stakes that have made the same journey from small stakes to big stakes, because I can see how hard it is to make it just in the early stakes, which is the very early part of that journey. Lifes full of little revelatons thanks again for the input, very much appreciated. I think tomorrow I'm going to tighten right up, drop the suited connectors out, and just play premium hands and position as I started (and wilburforce advocated) I think the 6max strategy guide is a bit of an overkill for these little stakes

I'll say this though for the benefit of the odd new member that might stumble across this post. BR management is everything, without it there is nothing.

I think you can find good in most things, it wasn't so long ago that a losing session would mean I wouldn't be able to play again for a couple of days / week. Now I've had two pretty average days (losing days) and yet can still play again tomorrow, I've got BR management and the good advice I've received in the thread over the last couple of days to thank for that.
