Official welcome to Bustoville!!!
Bad News
Well, it finally happened. Even after a cash influx I have still officailly hit bottom on my FT acct. It's the 2nd time an acct has ever gone busto on me, and both times it has been on FT. The hand was my AQo from LP that was called by the BB. The flop was A-Q-6 rainbow, the BB leads into me, I raise, he reraises and I stuff my last bit of pocket change into the pot and he eventually calls. Of course, he's got 66 for the bottom set and I'm just SOL. I hate FT and FT hates me, this is probably better for both of us. Good News My Bodog acct took a shot in the arm today as I let a friend of mine play the Poker Source Online freeroll that I was entered into via the affiliate program offered there. I had to attend a college graduation for one of my wife's friends, but he came through for me and took 3rd for a $320 payday, (I'll get to keep half of that.) This should get me rolled for $50NL which shouldn't be too much different than the $25NL that I have been profiting on lately. This account was $24 in February after I liquidated most of it, so I am very proud of what has been accomplished on this site. Also, the $18 that I had on Absolute Poker was given a chance when AP deposited $10 into my account to draw me back to their site. As of tonight, that account is up to $55 and I think I'll be short-stacking on the $50NL tables trying to hit the BBJP that they have started to offer. If it breaks $100 or so, I may move back down to $25NL and start practicing at least some BR management, though there are not enough tables going on AP to allow me to multitable. It's a gamble, but I know where my bread and butter is, good 'ole Bodog and the Horseshoe - Bossier City . |

If AP turns into a decent roll, I'll play it responsibly, until then, I consider it a freeroll... |

Re: Official welcome to Bustoville!!!
wow. 20 bucks says you go busto within a month. $160 is not even anywhere in the neighborhood of being rolled for 25NL, much less 50NL. good luck though

Don't be pussies guys. $50 is fully rolled for nl50. $40 if you're decent.
EDIT: Just noticed he's shortstacking $50. In that case $10 is enough. |

I strongly suggest you define that numerically, right now. Otherwise, you'll reach $1k, decide you can beat NL100 ("anyway, $1k isn't really a decent roll, is it"?) and your busto again. I screwed up by bankroll last december. Was down to my last 50 bucks. I decided there and then that I would never deposit again. Proper BR management was therefore foced upon me. Personally, I really think you should start good practice now - but deciding precisely when you will start is an absolute minimum. |
