Redeposit $200 and play the 1/2nl tables with $40 buyin. You'll instantly turn your 1x buyin bankroll into a 5x bankroll and it'll be easier to handle the swings.

lol you are funnier than OP, this thread turned my frown upside down today... [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Re: Built and lost bankroll
 

This is a gimmick.... nice one OP.


If I'm wrong, there are a couple things you need to get clear in your mind.

1. You are not good at poker. Not even slightly. I know that sounds harsh.

2. Not being able to walk away is serious; you should seriously consider giving up all forms of gambling if you are truly incapable of walking away while losing.

I feel comfortable at $1/$2. I do well... I just think I have a problem. I think I can't walk away when I'm on tilt. I allow myself to keep playing. I'm going to go broke if I keep this up... I honestly can't believe I lost everything.

Quit poker and never play it again, this may not be a problem you can fix.

Re: Built and lost bankroll
 

sigh...this was pretty amusing...best part of it all was that there was some good advice buried in the pile but OP obviously has made a careful study and is choosing to ignore it...

Firstly Carol, I'm 26 and am the co-founder of a successful software company based out of London, UK and Abu Dhabi, UAE so I'm not an "online kid" [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] But I'll let you off there...easy mistake.

Secondly, I don't rate anyone who hasn't been there and done it in the cash games. If Phil Gordon sat down even as low as the 2/4NL games online, the sharks would swarm. He's had a few good tourney's, got a name for himself, wrote a few successful books. More power to him for taking the initiative and reaping the benefits of his fame. A good player? Sorry he is not that until he grinds out thousands of cash game hands and turns a profit. Anyone can get lucky winning a few donkaments.

If I was Patrik Antonius and I read 2+2, I'd be bloody offended if I was included in the same sentence as Phil Gordon. That is lol material!

Anyways, this topic is about how awesome our OP is! Let's get back on topic! [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

He is the new FGators only with "I run break even, and I have huge 4 buy-in downswings, and I can't get away from the tables". Dude, the BBV forum is over there. TxBye.

This is the funniest [censored] thread I've read all year and lo and behold, it's in the Medium Stakes Forum. Honestly it's killin' me!

I can't believe I'm giving advice here but OP, listen to some of these guys. They are well-established long-term winners. As whoever it was that said it, the sarcasm offers useful advice. You sound very much like a Bluescouse in the making. Do your research on him and don't take after this guy. Finally, OP, as mentioned, these guys are successful for a reason. Don't come asking for advice and basically refuse to accept any thrown your way. Yes, 2+2 can be a harsh environment but if you look past some of that, it's probably the place that will improve your game the most...and it's not even close.

Carol-Ann: you seem like a sweet lady but either you're re-leveling or getting mad levelled here:

Plus you shouldn't post your small blind I heard playing out of position is bad.

Either way, MANY of the posts in this thread gave me a right chuckle! I usually want these threads to burn but 2+2 has been at its finest with wit in this one [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Is this honestly the funniest thread you have ever read? I think it is sad if he is being serious and if its a gimmick account then meh.
