read this, it basically covers everything. Things like a password manager (I use roboform, vvv good) are essential. Also use PS's number password thing, just google it, can't remember the name.

PM mr. savage penguin if you want to know of the best antivirus programs and such.

As long as you don't download too much sketchy media from bad sources and keep your PC scanned every once in a while you'll be fine.

That said, I'm surprised you guys find beats tilting. You know over time those will even out and you'll profit massively. I find losing flips, getting coolered, getting outplayed or playing like shit way more tilting because you don't really know if you're 'doing it right' or how to fix it.

Nah, don't get me wrong, I love those guys and those situations. And they don't really tilt me. I mean come on, I've had some of the worst d/swongs on here, but I just keep on grinding.

Nah what pisses me off is that everytime I make move upto to 200nl, I just seem to run like shit. Thats what does my head in. A bit like BW in some respects.

+$400 day today, but in the most bizarre ways ever. I was down $500 at one point. Examples of ridiculousness follow:

SB: $98 (98 bb)
BB: $178.90 (178.9 bb)
Hero (UTG): $146.40 (146.4 bb)
MP: $90 (90 bb)
CO: $152.80 (152.8 bb)

Pre-Flop: Hero is UTG with Q♣ Q
Hero raises to $3.50, 3 folds, SB calls $3, BB folds

Flop: ($8) J♣ 3♠ 2♠ (2 players)

SB bets $24, Hero raises to $126.40 and is all-in, SB calls $54 and is all-in

River: ($197) J (2 players, 2 are all-in)

Results: $197 pot ($3.50 rake)
SB showed 7 7 (a full house, Sevens full of Jacks) and won $193.50 ($95.50 net)
Hero showed Q♣ Q (two pairs, Queens and Jacks) and lost (-$98 net)

Pre-Flop: Hero is BTN with A♣ 5♣
UTG folds, MP calls $1, CO raises to $4, Hero calls $4, 2 folds, MP calls $3

Flop: ($13.50) 2♠ TJ (3 players)
MP checks, CO checks, Hero checks

Turn: ($13.50) 6♠ (3 players)
MP checks, CO checks, Hero checks

River: ($13.50) 2 (3 players)

got my ass kicked in a $100 NL shot a couple weeks ago

dropped back down to $50 to win a few of those buy ins back.. had a few solid days in a row (a handful of $50-$100 sessions in a row) now and hope to take another shot at $100 by the end of the month.

If you mean me, then i don't find beats that tilting at all. I just figured that he was more frustrated about losing with AA vs 53s than losing a $500 pot. But i think what you are saying about not wanting to be in a high variance situation deep playing at stakes higher than normal is perfectly valid.
