How are you on these forums with 4300 posts telling me I have a gambling problem?

you have a problem

that problem is being a complete tilt monkey with no self-control and a propensity for gambling over your head and losing all your money.

THAT's how I have 4300 posts telling you you have a gambling problem

I do much better in live poker. I live in VA though, so casinos are not at my disposal.

a good rule to follow I believe is the if you lose 3buyins just quit. If you cant quit, then you straight up should not be playing poker. probably be better playing blackjack or roullete, where you will lose your money sooner and not drag on the event of going bankrupt. Just being able to play poker is going to lead to success, There seems to be so much more to poker than poker itself, such as being in control of your life good example, being able to stop playing and move down limits, it self discipline to do it, if you lack that, then you lack what it takes to be a successful poker player

I have a problem. You're right. I'm going to take a break from poker for a while and when I return, I'm actually going to think about bankroll management.

You know, I really enjoy playing poker, but there are things I need to work on. I obviously enjoy playing too much... hah but oh well. It's a learning process. Most people can't get to the top overnight.

I think there is more to poker than bankroll management also? Don't play poker if you have any "problems" in RL like make sure you are in control of everything. if your a student make sure your school work is done first (confidence) its a lot to it.... but I do believe self control is one of the most important things, GL to you

Thanks for your posts. It's weird that you mention real life issues... I have had a lot going on in my life recently and maybe that has had an effect on my success.

Don't pay any mind to FWF, he plays 25nl on Party and thinks it's funny to make fun of people who are better and more successful than him. I recommend making fun of him to make you feel better.

Also, lol $800 at $1/2nl is nothing. If that's the worst run of cards you've been very fortunate to this point.
