Wow. Some cracking responses here. Thanks everyone! I'll read them in more depth over lunch.
I had a day off yesterday. As I said, I'd been chasing for a few days on a mini-tilt. I was never going to play well when not in the right frame of mind.
I think I've possibly been a bit too conservative with my initial buy-ins. Buying too low and taking the inherent gamble with the blinds when my play would be more suited to a higher buy-in with longer levels, or maybe the cash games. I read a
lot and have played on the 'net regularly (3/4 times a week) for maybe 4 months now. I'm probably better than the majority of the players at the $1 tables. Snobbery shouldn't come into it though. I've chosen my opponents and I shouldn't move away crying "variance, luck" etc. I should be able to beat these guys long term if I'm better than them. I need to concentrate more. Care more about my dollar!!
I'll keep on playing at
Titan until my coffers are empty there (unless I turn into a consistent winner!) and will probably move to either
laddies or stars.
Titan's OK but the cash-out options aren't up to scratch.
