Some insight would be appreciated....(long w/ Cliff notes)
I know that most, or at least some, people have been in a similar situation that i am in right now. I would greatly appreciate some insight on how to get out of this mess. I am a 20 year old college student who has been playing poker live and online for 2 years now. I never really have had great success, but I believe that I am or have been playing "winning poker" in the past. Recently (the past month) things have not been going so well and I am now in a hole. I know my situation is not terrible, but I feel as if I've reached rock bottom right now. Allow me to explain my financial situation.
As of right now i have $300 in my checking account, -660 euros of debt in a french bank account, -$700 of credit card debt, $20 in my wallet, and nearly no money on online poker sites. Rewind to a month ago(Mid July) $1k+ in my checking account, -660 euros of debt in france, -$800 in credit card debt, and probably around $1-2k on my fulltilt/bodog accounts. I normally play anywhere from 100mx-200mx NLHE/PLO, and MTTs. I must say though that when i have been playing cash games i have never truly had a proper bankroll to play in the game i was in. The most buy-ins i've had for a specific game was probably 4-6 unless i had just come off of a big MTT score(i have had three this summer for over $2k). Now I obviously do not have enough money to play poker to my liking right now. And next time i deposit i want to make sure i do things right and and properly rolled for the game i am playing. I know i obviously will need to find a real job to obtain a source of income. So for the next few weeks i will be taking a break from poker and going back to france. i know most people recommend 20 buyins for cash games, but could someone who has been in this situation im in now recommend a way out to continue playing poker see positive results, and not go crazy playing underrolled and losing everything i deposited in my account in less than 24hrs? I feel as if im rambling but any insight that any person could give me would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Cliff notes: Busto college student in debt wants to find a way out and make sure next time he plays online he is rolled for his game of choice. |
