stepping down after bankroll takes a beating...

[bholdr]

I have always been an advocate of maintaining good bankroll discipline, but, to be honest, it's never really been a challenge for me because my roll was outpacing my ability (thank you, bonus!); i've generally been bankrolled for one limit higher than i play and feel that i can consistantly beat.

well, no more! I had a breakeven month in july, and i made a withdrawl to pay for a vacation ($800) and then another to replace the surfboard i got rid of on the vacation (another $600). so, all of the sudden, i don't even have enough (technically speaking) to play exclusivly at my chosen limits (3/6 and 5/10). I am having a bit of a tough time stepping down to the 2/4 games. when i see (saw) a GOOD 3/6 game that i know i can (should be able to) beat, i still sit (sat)... throw in a little bad variance over a thousand or so hands, and i'm suddenly seriously BR deficient.

has anyone here had to take a step or two down and rebuild? i expect it to take a month or more to get my BR back up to where it should be. tips? thoughts? i've whored all the casinos, so that's not gonna do it.

maybe i'll just go back to ten-tabling .50/1 for a while. geez. i need a little encouragement here... [/whining]
