    Gametime I think you are a good player. I have seen you many times on PO FRs. So I would say to you--apply the way you work your chips in a tourney to the way you buy in. You don't call half your stack pre-flop. So why buyin for 10 when you only have 20. I have the same problem as you. I always move up too quick. I spend a night starting with 20 and turn it into 500. Then I play 100-200 sngs. Good luck to us both, maybe we can turn it around. I have a best friend who is a mason. Im sure you dont put half your business on the line when you work either. The problem can be that since you are a good player, you have confidence. That confidence can turn to cocky arrogance very quickly. Its a fine line to walk. You crush a stake and move up too quick. I think you have the right idea with the discipline you are setting for yourself. Remember all buyins are math too. So allow for bad beats and varience with your buyins. Good luck as I hope it works out for you.

    GL GAMETIME I DID IT, but lost it all. added up over 6 months equals up to 4k i was able to win from fr, never depositing. Went to 5-10 and lost it all.... one bad day of bad poker thinking can lose it all ! BE CAREFUL! i have done it , after the wreck i went through losing 3k in about 7 hours, it didnt even feel real.. you can work a whole month lose it in an instant , i also recommend to contact customer support and ask them to disable your other casino games. They will.
    GL MAN and keep the thread alive.

    Grats to you for these winnings. According to a strict BRmanagement you shoul have 30-50 Buyins for playing cash game (NL5) or about 80-100 Buy ins for SNG or MTTs. Stick to this and play the game you are best in.
