Default Re: Near the end of my brief Online career -Whine

Regarding the small BR:

This is the way I approach every venture in life. Start small and test the waters, then increase the investment if it shows promise. This may not be the correct approach for Poker.

Another reason is that my BR for live play is in cash, so my wife doesn't need to be intimately involved in the details of how much money is involved. The deposit mechanism for Online play however, shows up on the credit card statement and thusly is more overt. Not that she would mind, but that would give her license to spend even more than she does now.

My plan was to withdraw $200 from Absolute and take a stab at other sites, but I played a few too many sessions and now that's on hold.

I'll be heading up to Foxwoods next week. If I do well, I might throw some more money at online poker and give Party a try.

Bill

I see your reasoning for the small BR and I also started with a much too small BR for my limits. Luckily I never had a big downswing in the beginning and was able to make a go of it. Stick with it, if you do well at foxwoods, throw some more in it and play to whatever BR you have. Good luck.
