my flawed stratagem
This is my reasoning for not max buying. (Other than being a pussy)
I made a goodly portion of my bankroll up till a couple of months ago with this strategy. I know it is flawed, but it worked for me. (Because of the confidence issue. Remember?)
I started on the penny tabs with .50. Then I moved up slowly. As I stated before I only play NL. I would buy in at .05/.1 tab with $2 to $4 or $25 with $10. I would play tight. I would play in a hand and get all my $ in before the turn, with the best hand most of the time. I would get the call quite often with 2nd pr, draws, and shit-kickers, because I was such a short stack. They weren’t afraid the of my baby stack. I would double-up, usually within 10 to 30 min. Then before they noticed how tight I was playing I would leave and start all over again at a new unsuspecting table. (I give a snicker as I twirl my mustache) I would play 3 tabs at a time while doing this. This was my bread and butter for a year while I gained experience through sheer amounts of hands.
But I think I now have the experience to hop out of the nest and try a more straightforward technique and stop surreptitiously pick-pocketing the tards.
I'm ready to give out-thinking my opponents a shot.
