You need to get the sacredness out of your head. if you play the way you are doing, and are learning from the expert NL players at this forum (Zy, JD e.t.c) then you wont blow your bankroll. You will lose hands, eveyrone does, but playing the odds and buying in for the correct amount helps alot. I bought into a 3/6 yesterday with $250 instead of $600, first hand i end up all in with AA vs KK. If id have bought in for $600, id have $1209 in my face, but only $509 because i didnt do it. The guy that put me all in had ver $2k in his stack. It was the only free table and i made the mistake of not putting $600 in incase he was in anyway cheating sounds stupid yes, but id have 3 pints, but lets not get caught up on the idea of cheating again.

Buy in for the max.
Always raise 3x BB with AA/KK/Aksuited, and add 1xBB for every limper.
You will lose with AA 74% of the time heads up, but over time this 24% over the 50/50 shot will amount to loads and loads of money.
Dont be a pussy!!! if you can play, and win like you are doing, then why minimize your potential earnings?
