I consider myself to be one of the top NL Head up players at the .50/1 dollar limit on full tilt. In about 3000 hands of 4 to 5 tabling the Head Up games at full tilt i lost from my peak just about 2,600 dollars.

LOL "one of the top NL HU players" Are you the Mike Matusow of 100NL? If you really do want to be one of the best, set a stop-loss for yourself of 5-8 buyins, then stop playing for 5-8 hours. It will save you $ in the long-run if you have tilt issues. Good luck bro

The funny part about this is that the rake at these limits is probably only beatable under optimal conditions so even if your the best player your edge is going to small or negative therefore this is likely not a 'downswing' its just the rake beating you.

Do you pay FT extra rake? Just curious since the rake is not bad.

My question to the forum is how does one rebound from such massive psychological anguish?

How has nobody yet told him to move up?

no private parts are exposed in the "gay porn"... what are you, still in denial of your sexuality?

I saw one of the matches. I assume it was the one you're talking about anyway, there was only one trainwreck going on tonight at that limit. Looked liked two complete donkeys tilting for stacks every hand, but only one kept winning. And I'm pretty sure donkey #2 donated most of your money to a few happy customers. Thought you should know.
