Yeah, but I hate when I start out losing. I think losing causes a lot of players to play worse (not sure about myself honestly), where winning can help them play better. Well, maybe. *I* play better when I've been winning, but I can see that that might not be true for everyone.

Thats kinda weird...you should figure that out, it sounds like a mental thing. The only thing I feel is wrong with starting out in the red, is the players tag you as a loser and seem to call bluffs easier and get out of pots less. That pisses me off.

Im a similiar way. When I go to play live, if I lose my first buyin I would say 3 out of 4 times I end up down for the session. If I win a few hundred to start, I usually come out a winner. I think the beginning of a session is crucial.
Having a bigger stack also allows you to see more flops with other big stacks bc of implied odds and you can get paid big time.

Agreed. And I think having a "winning image" as opposed to a "losing image" is huge. This is why I typically start off fairly tight, before moving to my LAG image.
Just goes to show how important table selection can be. Starting at tables where you will likely win could be a big edge. |

Yep, this sure did feel a lot better. Well, it does NOW anyway - now that I'm done.

TP,
How are you generating your graphs? I don't have third-party software, and I can't figure it out in PT.

Go to the game notes tab in PT, then hit the get all button to retrieve the entire data set that you are looking at and it the 1st little g button. THe second one just allows you to set constraints on how many data points you want to graph.
