Re: Taking a Shot
lil feller,
You might consider eliminating the phrase “taking a shot” from your speech, writing, and thoughts. You are not “taking a shot” when you play a limit higher than you’ve played before. What you are doing is you are playing a limit higher than you have played before. That’s it. Just like you have done in the past, just like millions have done multiple times. It’s not something to second guess before you even do it. It’s just something to do or not, like any selection, like folding, or changing seats.
I also think it might be a good idea if instead of thinking of yourself as a $15-30 to $30-60 player, and then thinking of $50-100 as something removed, think instead of all three games as being the range that you will tend to select from when you play these days, it’s just that so far, you have not actually sat in all the games of your range yet. But you know you will play all the games of your range eventually, and when you do play $50-100, it will simply be part of the gradual process of change that you will always be going through. You don’t need to take a shot. You just need to take a seat.
