5/10...

I started taking shots at 5/10 this month. Everything started out hunky dory, I ran really good, cornered a lot of players and the money came rolling in, I wondered what all the fuss was about playing at this level!
This week however has been a completely different story, Its been really up and down, having some 8 buy in plus days and some 8 buy in down days and slightly more of the latter. I think im playing the best poker I can at the moment and feel confident, in the most part, that im not playing above my station. I have dropped a couple of buy ins to bad play and won a few due to it, but I feel im slowly worming out these leaks.
A few were making my game rather spewy but I think I have eradicated one of them and am working on the others.
I'm considering dropping down for a while if this week doesn't take a dramatic turn for the better as having large swings while being only just rolled could be effecting my play without me noticing.
I have found that not keeping track of my role really helps with the mental part of my game, but obviously I don't want to be playing under rolled and so am having to check quite frequently at the moment.
As far as other regs go, There is defiantly a few Tag's playing to a high standard that I have a lot of respect for at the moment. The games in general however aren't any tougher than 2/4 and 3/6 and at the right times there are quite a few fish. Not, however as many as at the lower levels.

Amongst all the horror I did have my biggest stack and biggest pot this week:

Stack:

Hand: The HH wasn't recorded by my hand grabber but Kekec supplied it for me, I'm BB.
