Re: Official October Thread: General Discussion
[ QUOTE ]
Somehow I lost 6 buyins at 3/6 and over 7 buyins at 2/4 today. My downswing tally is up to 27k now. I haven't cashed out in 2 months, and I'm down to only 16k in poker accounts now. That's probably not enough of a roll to play 3/6 anymore... but then, if you are a losing player, no amount is enough of a roll. I guess I have no choice - I will start sending out resumes and contacting recruiters tomorrow. This really sucks, because it almost certainly means I'm going to have to move to someplace with a tech sector, and that means leaving behind beautiful Hawaii, all of my wife's family, our support network, etc. Right now we live rent free with my in-laws, which is particularly awesome due to built-in baby-sitting and all the help they give. Our whole lives are going to change because I've completely lost both the ability to play good and to run good. [/ QUOTE ] this post made me sad [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] |

Re: Official October Thread: General Discussion
Ya ddubois, just get a job in Hawaii for some supplementary income, and really dissect your game at the same time. Move down, hire a coach, review sessions heavily, and you should be good to go. You can definetely rebuild on 16k.

[/ QUOTE ] why are you still even playing 3/6 and 2/4? you should have moved down long before your downswing got this big. i'm not going to assume to know why you didn't but i would guess it's the same thing that breaks so many other players, EGO. |
