Beat: Robusto to Busto in 3 months.
 

Here is a pic of me cashing out my winnings from the last day of the PCA. I cash out for 44k, + 37k on the trip which quintuppled my entire roll. I was on top of the [censored] world...

After a massive downswing at 10/20 and poor bankroll management my roll is down to 5k, less than where it was pre-PCA.

This experience has taught me the utter importance of bankroll management/moving down when necessary... so now I am forcing myself (shoot me plz) to 8-table .25/.50nl.

I know I'm a winning player in all but the highest of games, yet I'm on the brink of quitting poker.
I'm close to saying [censored] poker, getting a "real job", giving up on my aspirations of becoming wealthy through poker.

cheer me up? gg life?

Same thing happened to me, but I also got shot in the stomach and survived. So I'm still up, big picture wise.

Re: Beat: Robusto to Busto in 3 months.
 

Sucks dude. But shouldn't you be able to play 200nl with that roll? 50NL might just drive you crazy.

good luck with your recovery.

Re: Beat: Robusto to Busto in 3 months.
 

Take 10 days of and start grinding again on 200NL with that Bankroll. GL

Are you like the new Gambler2k4?

Re: Beat: Robusto to Busto in 3 months.
 

with 5 k, a player like you is wasting their time at .25/.50. Take a break and go back to 200nl/

what was ur sn

Re: Beat: Robusto to Busto in 3 months.
 

so thats who you are

Re: Beat: Robusto to Busto in 3 months.
 

and yeah, take some time off... maybe 100nl or 50nl would be best for you, learn the concept of grinding and lowering your ROR, since busting will probably end your career.

consider it a life lesson.
