My bankroll was the $5,725.00 profit I opened with. I hadn't taken a downswing of more than 4-5 buy-ins and thought this would be fine AND I had another source of income then. I didn't take into account how I react to losses that have no possibility of being replenished except by playing.
I think once I get another source of income to settle me I'll be able to play correctly again. But I still plan to move down in takes (no more $2/5 - $300buyins for awhile) until I build back up to a better level. This'll probably mean playing at the Bike, as the casinos near me are 2/5 or 1/3 only.
Two things coming up for me:
I have a callback/2nd interview today at 3pm for a great paying steady job that would put me in an excellent position to build my BR back up - which I've decided for me must build to at least $40k for me to feel right to quit.
I'm heading to Las Vegas on Sunday for three nights - my family's birthday present to me planned before I stopped playing in despair
It's such an odd headwrecking thing - they've lost no confidence in me
at all, even knowing the exact amount I'm down. It's only me who can't
play right with money worries.So, my prediction is, if I get told I'm hired, I play in Vegas and play well. Doesn't mean I'll win $ of course, but I definitely need a live session where I play well! That'd be a win for me.
