Hi all and a very merry Christmas :icon_sant
I play a lot of limit O8, around $1/$2 - $2/$4 limits, 10 people.
What I find is that I do well most of the time, get to a decent chip stack (Say take my $80 buy in up to $120) and then blow it down to the starting $80 again
It is rare that I lose my buy in - in fact I have never done it because if I lose 25% of my starting chip stack I leave.
I would guess it is irrelivant what form of poker I am playing.
Do you have any thoughts on how to avoid this problem?
Last night, for example, I started with $80, dropped to $60 after the first hour, then I took it up to $130 after another 2 hours. I was going to stop but I am driven on by accumilating FPP on stars, so I kept going and another 2-3 hrs later I stopped, with $85 - a profit of $5 - less than $1 / hour !!!
I think I am trying to hit 2 targets that don`t work together i.e. accumilating lots of FPP and increasing my bankroll.
My target should be increasing my bankroll and the FPP should be a bonus, but it is difficult when u r about 400 away from hitting Gold
Any help as always is appreciated.
