Default back to higher buyins

I did go back to lower buyins, keeping with the jesus 5% rule. It took a couple of weeks but the buyins have increased, and thankfully a 1st place finish tonight.

Just remember to humble yourself and play the lower buyins to 'work' that bankroll to gain even more.

Thankfull to rakeback and the good advise in the posts.

One thing that many poker players need to do is simply learn to deal with humility. Suck it up and play within your means. Work your game and bring it up.

Congrats.

Default the important thing is happening

tonight was a good night again-
played lower buyin to buildmo the bankroll incrementally,
and another 1st place (18 sng).

I played the right way and so did others.

God, I love this game!
