Default Re: should I move down?

If you are asking the question, then odds are that you should move down.

After a big loss, I go back and seriously study the way I played. I write it down in a little notebook. Develop your own, honest, system to determine how you are doing.

Most of the time, it's due to me playing badly according to the fundamental theory, and sometimes just playing badly overall.

If poker is your only job, then 20 buy-ins seems like a pretty short bankroll for NL. Since you are making regular withdrawals (as poker is your only source of income), then you need to have a larger bankroll to cover for the months where you don't do so well. This would also suggest moving down in limits. Mabye two or three times what is required by theory.
