Default 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.

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.
