So I was getting kinda tilty over this latest downswing and looked at some old graphs that 6-maxers post monthly and I saw that big downswings are sometimes normal so I'm not sweating it. | |

When you look back @ your upswing, do you feel like most of it was from good play and getting it in with the best and holding up? Do you look @ your downswing and remember many good hands not holding up? It's a little disconcerting that the upswing seems so much more choppy and inconsistent than the downswing. Fortunately, both occur over a relatively small hand volume, but consistently monitoring your decision process is key I think. The graph only maps what has happened. As poker players, I feel like we should already have a good idea of what is really happening without the graph. Your last paragraph suggests you are actively looking at those types of things, so that's good. From here forward, try to keep a better pulse as you go. You should still do reviews, but also still be in the moment if that makes sense. | |

Another point to consider is coolers. During your upswing, you could get the money in good with your AA versus KK and your KK versus QQ and so on. You got it in good, but the villain can't be faulted for paying you off. Also don't forget that a great deal of money is made and lost I believe in seemingly mundane pots like ones where no one flops anything, blind steals, and the like. | |

I just realized that if I had never made any withdrawals on my account, I'd have 33 BIs for 25NL. | |

Yeah, I haven't made any withdrawals yet for that reason. I just think for micro and small stakes that the dollar amount of the withdraw just doesn't outweight the potential future profits that money could be used to move up in stakes with. I also think it's important that the bulk of the money you've used to move up is from beating the previous stakes. So, in your situation, make sure your NET winnings from $10NL is at least $300. If the bulk of it is actually from $5NL or smaller, it doesn't mean you're necessarily ready to move up. | |

I have made at least $300 at 10NL. Probably close to $360 or even more. | |

Had a bit of a "downswing". Actually it was more of a break even period. Usually I tilt during this period and have a huge "cooler". What I would normally consider a "cooler" appears to be more getting cold cards forever, then finally getting cards and refusing to fold when I know I'm beat. I folded more this time around and it ended up being a break even period with a slight downswing. | |

Withdrew my entire $700 BR on PS and will deposit it to FTP for the $600 bonus and signed up for RB through spoon. Gonna take a few days to get the PS money so I'll use play money at FTP to get used to the new interface. | |

While waiting for my PS check to arrive I decided to do some things that will be +EV for my game. I'm getting sick of playing for play money on FTP. | |

I agree that it's good not to be in a hurry, but don't you worry that you may not give yourself a reasonable opportunity to clear it because it must be cleared in 120 days and whatever isn't gets lost? | |

I don't know if you know or how you're planning to deposit, but just for your awareness, if you are using eChecks for the first time on FullTilt, you can only do a MAX $100 deposit initially and must wait 7 days for it to clear with no issues before you can do more. Fortunately, the 2nd deposit will count towards your full $600 deposit, however, the clock to clear the bonus starts ticking as soon as you deposit - they don't give you an extra 7 days or additional 120 days after the 2nd deposit. It's just another piece of the puzzle to keep in mind while you're doing this. Unless you have other deposit methods or some connections to do player cash transfers, you'll probably end up playing $10NL or gambling with 4 buy-ins @ $25NL for a week until you can pad the roll. Good luck. | |

Hrm, good luck with the debit card but I would be REALLY surprised if you could get any debit card to work from the United States. BUT, I am rooting for you and if you are able to get one to work, let us know the details of the card like bank, issuer, or whatever pertinent details so we can all get one | |

Finally got the PS check after 11 days. I found out that if you do not deposit via echeck for 6 months then you have no choice but a paper check to cashout. | |
