Nit it up, trust me

The first 5k hands was my first $50 deposit and I played loose. After that it was nit life and gg nl2

Okay, update. I just played 550 hands of nit on 6-8 tables. I really like it. I put way more volume in than I could before, so I get into MORE interesting spots to train my game, I still have plenty of time to make a decision and think about hands, I have more material to review after a session, it's way less stressful (getting sucked out on once isn't so bad when you are making money at the same time on three other tables), and I think my winrate is going up.

I will keep 6-8 tabling and playing nitty. I think I'm playing like 12/10 now, which isn't 10/8 but close enough. I'll try to fold even more marginal spots if I can. It's still a little hard for me to get a feel for what is a marginal situation and what isn't, when I've been playing twice the amount of hands that I am now. I'll get used to it.

After getting sucked out on and coolered constantly, today's session is still +$0.25. Yay.

Happiness lasted until session review, where I figured out what incredulously stupid plays I make everywhere when I'm 8-tabling. Have to get used to it, I guess ^.^

You can check your transfer history to see where the money came from.

Also, I recommend sticking to 4 tables. It's far better for the learning process.

Well, I'm going to shift the learning process to session review, now, I think. Even with four tables, it's difficult to learn, and I would automatically start to play looser too.
