The rebound

So i just started getting back into the rythm of playing lots of poker after my recent large downswing. I took a few days off to clear my head and have some fun and now when i sit down for a session i don't have that stress lingering around waiting to be outdrawn to go on tilt. I have been playing really well, i'm not running amazing either but i've made about 3500$ this week i think in only 6000 hands of 1/2. After cashing out 2k for Vegas my BR is back up to $17,400 and i should be receiving somewhat around 2k for rakeback.

With all that in mind i have been trying to consider my poker career for the next month or so. I really need to buy a new Truck, i'm almost certain it will be a Toyota Tacomba, unless i win lots of dollars in Vegas. I'm going to finance the truck (if i can get a loan) that way i can preserve most of my BR. What i have been debating in my head is if i should rush back to 2/4, or just sit back at 1/2 for a few months and try to grind out a good living. I'm pretty certain i can beat 2/4, but the 1/2 game is sooo much softer. Anyways, here is a really funny hand from the day, apparently 200$ is nothing to this guy...
