As September dawns I can’t get past the fact that I’m at my lowest total profit since day one – a measly $103. Yes, I’ve been battered by a gruesome run of outdraws, but I also know I haven’t been playing my A-game. As my bankroll has dwindled I’ve been trying harder to boss the tables, and pulling unnecessary moves in an attempt to catch up.

The result of this chasing is that I’ve been playing four $100 no-limit Hold’em tables with just one buy-in behind (my daily Badbeat bankroll is $500). Obviously, that’s not great bankroll management, so I decide to try a new approach.
