Default Grinding..:(

So as you may have read in an earlier post I am almost tapped out of money when I once had a $15,000 banroll.

I have since deposited $50 into my ultimatebet account and have grinded it up to $146 playing $5 SNG's and 4 tabling 10c25c NL in the past 2 days.

I know I CAN beat these games and KNOW I should probably stick at these limits until i have $300/$400 but don't know if I will have the patience. I am a good poker player but am as a gambler in heart. I was wondering what you guys do in order to stay within your bankroll and not play games that are out of your bankroll( the obvious answer that marm or demmex would say would probably be " Play games you know you can win at")

I understand what you are saying but just don't know if i can "stay on track"

Maybe losing this $15,000 will be able to change the way I view things and know that in the long run if you go up to limits your bankroll can sustain that you will end up losing, no matter HOW GOOD you are.

IDK stupid post and dont know what I am expecting for a reply just thought Id say something.

Play 5c/10c until you have $200 at least.

Just $5's trust me. I built a roll from $5 SnGs. They are plenty profitable.

You need to learn MM skills......I worked as a FX Dealer for 7 years....When I started traded 1 Mill lots. At the end traded up to 20 mill lots....However most profitable at 5/10 mio Lots. Even in 7 years never got comfortable at 20s.
So its a state of mind thing. In trading they say their are lots of bold traders but not many old bold traders. I think the same thing may apply to playing poker.
When you've got the edge you push and when u dont u cut your losses. You learn to play within ur limits. So learn some risk m'ment skills and pay ur dues.
Slash and burn types are a dime a dozen.
