Jumping up to the Big Game and Cheated.

And by big I mean the $0.05/$0.10 6-max games. I jumped into these games for a 4 dollar buy in out of $90, which is not quite 25 times the buy-in, it was only 22.5 times. I cheated again.

I did not feel comfortable playing these games at first because I felt I should have had a larger bankroll than I had. I swung down as low as $60, I would have had to stop at $50 and grind my way back up at the $0.02/$0.05. But I maintained my focused, did not get tilted, and knew I had an advantage over these players.

My bankroll fluctuated from 90 to 80 to 110, until I kept chugging along, and ultimately made it to my current bankroll of: $164.22

I don't know my whole BB/100 hands, but I think it is pretty high, I have adapted to the style of play, and think that some of the players here are worse then the $0.02/$0.05 players.

I havta send my hand history files to the computer with Poker Tracker because I play on both my computer and my laptop. I'm not sure how to transfer it yet, and still have to learn the workings of Poker Tracker.

So, now I'm officially caught up with my bankroll and blog, although there hasn't been much poker discussion, I will get to that. I have exams coming up, Christmas, and after that. I start my co-op as an assistant project manager. So, during my off-time I should be able to work on this project a little more often.

Although I made the 25 Buy-in Rules, I didn't specify how much the buy-in should be. The minimum buy-in and the maximum buy-in is a big difference.

Change of Rule Effective Today: I will play in games only when I have 25-times the maximum buy in (100 big blinds). Since I have been playing at the $0.05/$0.10, I will stay here until I reach $100 or $625. If at anytime I lose 15 maximum Buy-ins, I have to move down to a lower limit. When I finally reach $625, I can finally jump up to the $0.10/$0.25 games.
