Fixed your post.

Slev, I'm not trying to bag on you here (at least not yet). I'm simply taking FACTS, and adding them together.

Fact 1: You are a losing poker player. I'm not saying you will always be, or that it is because you are retarded or anything or that nature. I'm just stating a fact, and it is that you have lost money to this date playing poker.

Fact 2: You do not have the ability to beat $13 SNGs at this time. I'm not saying you never will, but at this time you DO NOT. You haven't sustained a profit for any significant period at lower SNGs; therefore, why in the world would you believe you could do this at higher buyin SNG?

Fact 3: You have shitty self-discipline. Yes, I have no life, and looked at your other blog (non-ftr blog). There are excerpts from 9/24 talking about "Still staying self-disciplined!", etc. Well either saturday or friday I saw you playing on stars. I guess you were "taking your shot" because you played a $25ish MTT, some $38ish SNGs, and a $78ish SNG, among other things. That is nowhere near self-discipline. And please don't talk about how you won a little money before losing it all, cuz that's called positive variance, and it happens to even the worst of players.

Fact 4: You state you want to do this right, yet you haven't even started and you have already managed to abandon BR management. Do you not see how you have already FAILED at having enough willpower to do what you have set out to do? You should be able to see this.. Because it's very apparent everyone else on this site sees it.

Fact 5: You will go busto, and be taking your break very soon if you stick with this plan. There are players who frequent the SNG forums, posting hand histories, tournies, etc, and a few have a rough time at $10+ SNGs.

Just letting you know now, because chances are I won't be seeing ya for 6 or so months.
