Maybe change the topic to this:
"Every poker player whose ego won over BR management fundamentals has been bust at least once."

Moving down in limits doesn't mean your "little pokey" is going to shrink.

The nature of poker suggests that everyone overrates themselves. This means that ~90% of players will believe at one point or another that bankroll requirements don't apply to them.

And as we all know, over 83% of all statistics are made up on the spot.

I didn't make that statement as reply to your post. I meant it in general terms.

I don't think I exaggerate when I say that this is the worst thread in the history of online message boards.

God this is true. (Shakes head and cries over almost 40 buyin tilt spew at the $20+1 NLHE 1v1 at stars)

I spewed through an entire bankroll, redeposited and spewed all the way down to like 2 buyins before I fixed my tilt and got back on track.
I'm now playing on DBPN at what is essentially play money $0.10 SNGs while I put my chit back together. My little pokey does feel significantly smaller
