Not trying to thread jack, but I've got a question about this:

I check my balance after EVERY session (not table, just session). Not so much as in "Oh how much money did I win! OMG I LOST....TILT!!!!" but more so as "How much inventory/chips do I have. I decreased VERY sharp (or increased VERY sharp) let me review my hands and figure out where I'm leaking/Acceding. Did I lose to negative variance or bad poker playing? Did I win to positive variance, or good poker playing?"

In truth, I've forgoten that my BR has a $ sign in it anymore. Is it still bad to keep an eye on it? I'm probably not going to do it much when i get 5NL+ but here in 2NL it seems to be good to know I've got enough "inventory" to not go out of business any time soon, or that I have enough to take the next step of "production".

Just wondering, don't rape me too hard on this question.
