Message: [QUOTE="Matt Vaughan, post: 2418620, member: 34747"] @duggs: Tbh agreeing on most hands helps my confidence a shit ton, but tbf I also play worse than I analyze. Obv sweat ended worse for you haha. How you feeling now btw? Tho that 2 outer for -200bb hurt like a bitch. @benji: While I appreciate you trying to make me feel better I've seen you use this analogy before and still don't agree it applies here. If a pro baseball player moves down to the minors he doesn't change how he plays at all, and the speed with which he moves back up is an extremely different process imo. There are aspects that are similar but if a pro plays very very well he's almost never getting dropped down in the first place. I think 10nl is pretty different from 10nl/25nl since that's one of the biggest stake jumps you find. Plus it's 10nl/25nl to 5nl/10nl if I want any kind of reasonable volume. As for being in a rush, I think you're ignoring the fact that I'm not just moving down one limit, and it's not like it just happened this week lol. I was mixing 1/2 and 2/5 live. And the 2/5 I was in was legitimately tough for a live game. Then I dropped down a limit live. Then I went online (decrease of 2x or 4x in stakes to 50nl or 25). THEN drop down again. If anything it's not like major league going to minor league - it's like someone at the highest minor league level being told he has to go play little league with 5th graders lol. Realistically now I just don't want to deposit again so I might drop down after all but it's so hard to give a **** when playing for stacks is the equivalent of what feels like a single raise preflop. It's not even that I'm proud or whatever. Do you like playing poker with no money involved at all? I'm not saying it's at that level, there's degrees to it. But at a certain level of smallness of money involved, progress feels like nothing. [/QUOTE]
