Interesting post.

ONLINE
What I do is go to a NL $1-$2 or $0.5-$1 10 seater table with around $50-$70 expecting my stack to equal the 7th player's stack. You get the picture, it's enough to make a stand with.

I then have a rule that if I lose it I quit for the night. This gives me the discipline not to fool around. I will play it very carefully and wait for the opportunity to double up. It will come if you can get to see flops cheaply. Just wait.

I carry on until I suffer a couple of bad beats (inevitably) - then cash out for the night. However with the couple of bad beats, I am careful to (try and) limit my losses (and wins) to still remain ahead. So I am managing my chip pile profitably.

I figure that the sites will not spot me because I am playing anonomously (and small enough) enough not to raise their antenna. Call this paranoid - but I have a healthy disrespect for internet poker.

OK the bottom line is how am I doing? I have lost several $50 over a six month period. I am up $500 overall. Big deal huh?

I play to keep my game sharp enough for the live tourneys I like to play. Practice and learn from others. Key to success.

Steve
