A lil' bit of "Streak Theory"

[BrianSwa]

This is a great post and pretty much explains why I bust out soo much. Usually I will hit a great streak and make really good money and then I will feel so confident that I will move up levels that my bankroll CANT handle and will bust out. This is a major problem that I'am working on and getting better at. Another thing I do alot is hit a awsome streak and then a bad one and try to force hands and end up busting out once again.

For example the other night I sat at a $10 max NL table on full tilt and made about $150 in a couple hours the next day hit a down swing and didn't get up from table when I should of and busted out. Major problem for me which I'am working on, It is not fixed yet but it is getting alot better. I'am still busting out time to time but getting better at stopping when I know im not playing smartest. I also notice that when I hit a good streak and make alot at a single table I start playing wreckless and playing cards I wouldnt if I had a lower stack. I personally dont think a stack should change the way you play at a table, In a tornament yes but in a cash game no.
