Onwards and further downwards
I'm still running badly, and am down about 50 buy-ins now.
Its time to reconsider things.
At the start of this run I was running gruesomely badly, with a terrible run of bad beats. That's poker, I'm not ususual. I then started playing worse, but I think I've got my head on straight again now, and I'm OK with hopw I'm playing. I'm still losing though.
Its struck me that the final tables I'm reaching these days are pretty tough. There usually are few players who are donking lots of chips off, and they are all pretty shallow by the time of the money bubble so the variance is pretty large. That said if threre is a coin-flip to be played on the FT you can be pretty sure I'm on the wrong side of it.
Anyway I'm going to have to make a decision pretty soon on whether to move down or not. I've taken money out of my roll to pay for the Vegas flights, so I now "only" need money for a bankroll while I am there and some money to keep online.
I'd be happy taking $3k with me, and leaving $500 online, but I've only got $2k online at the moment - after my terrible run - and if I move down it will take me a *long* time to build it up.
That said, if the fields are that bit easier it may be worth it. We'll see how I fell when I next play.
