Hi all, ive been reading here for a few months now and it is by far the best Poker advice site i have come accross. This is my first post to the forum and it is a problem i have encountered twice now in total, and on different sites.

After building up my bankroll from meagre depostits (never having to reload) it gets to around $2k then i will go into a really bad run where i lose probably 1/4-1/3 of it. Now I know I must be playing poorly, its almost as if I play my best poker when my bankroll is smaller as I guess i concentrate more.

So now im having to cashout everytime i get to about $1k and this obviously prevents me from being able to climb above the .5-1 100NL that I play. (I know my bankroll being between $500-$1k isnt much for this limit but im careful with table selection and will never keep playing till i bust my whole BR...ie if i went down to $250 I would go back to SnG to build it back up)

Generally I have good self-discipline but something happens when my BR gets 'big' and I go silly for a month till i wake up and stop calling allins with AK on a raggy flop for example and cash back out a fair old whack.


Any advice is greatly appreciated guys/girls.
