Hi All
newcomer to the site but not that new to poker. im a regular cash game player with friends and others who are not all that great. i realised quickly that i had the potential to be a good player so about 2 weeks ago i decided to set up a stars and full tilt account. long story short i have ran horrific and blew about 80 dollars before getting my head out and buying blackrains book and downloading pokertracker. i have noticed that i pervieved myself as tight and agressive when really i was quite loose( VPIP around 32ish for 6max and pfr around 27) i found myself shooving with marginal coin flips and wondering why i was busting regularly. i was also under rolled playing nl5 with 50 dollars bankroll. basicaly i have busted 130 dollars or so in 2 weeks but feel as tough much of this was before i invested in two prime pieces of help. my question is should i re-roll and grind nl2 again or should i leave it for awhile ? tilting is a major problem also as i wonder why i loose in marginal situations such as pocket queens verse AKs ! ive been doing alot of study of strategies and realise a tight agressive player will beat micro-stakes but my idea of tight is alot looser than what the scripts say ! so in other words should i start fresh and write of old losses maybe wait a day or two or should i stop playing for a few months or should i just stop completly. i have made 4 different deposits in 2 weeks 40,30,30,30 but the first 100 were due to under-rolling and horrible game selection (heads-up sit and goes), thanks in advance guys
