Refocus...

After watching my bankroll dwindle and playing games beyond my means, I went back to basics this weekend. 

Inspired by Arrogants £100-£10k challenge, I'm going to limit myself this month to only playing £1.10 and £2.20 deepstacks, and see where I am at the end of April. Off to a great start over Saturday and Sunday, final tabling 3 of 4 tournaments and winning one when 4-1 down in chips heads up.

Giving myself a disciplined challenge has made me focus far more than just entering any old tournament. As for a long term goal, I hope to build a decent ish roll this month to progress to slightly higher buys ins and play sats to mains.

I saw Arrogant make the point that if you can consistently beat the low stakes deep stacks (not that I'm claiming a good run is beating the level) then there's no reason you can't be successful in the £33 mains. I don't know if I subscribe to this due to the level of player compared to the low stakes. 

I will update weekly of progress, tricky hands and hopefully some run good!

good luck   paience in deepstacks   why not play some low stakes cash on the side there easily beatable  if u just play £1.10 - £2.20 games can be boring if only playing a couple load some small cash games on the side that way if u dont make the cash in the mtt when alot of time u wont min cash or make final table u can make ya buy ins back by playing low limit cash tables good luck anyways
