LOL. I am smart enough to know that I'm not gonna quit. Because you and I both know I won't. I've lied to myself once and I'm not gonna do it again, but I will probably try to take it easy the next few days. I still have the bankroll to play 5/10 (just barely), but I'm not gonna do it for now. I might play it once in a while for a change of pace but I'm hoping to stick to 2/4 and 3/6 for now.

I've seen players at 2/4 and 3/6 - the same players that were there when I first started on pokerstars. They were winning then and they are winning now. I've always wondered why they don't move up to 5/10 or 10/20. A lot of them eventually do, but I now realize how smart they are by sticking to the mid-limits and grinding it out. It's not that they can't beat the higher limits but not only are the lower limits easier to beat, they also create far smaller swings and thus doesn't create situations like this. I really respect your decision to stick to 1/2 and 2/4 iceman because I know you have both the roll and the skill to be playing higher, but the self-discipline you show is astounding to me. I guess it's something you develop as you go, I have only been playing cards for about 10 months and I can't say I've had many days like this to really smarten me up.
