it appears the moving up to get even does not work on absolute.

Perhaps I should play yamahar1 or whatever his screen name is HU 100/200 Stud 8 right now to see if your theory works on Stars.

The worst part is that I'm going fishing tomorrow so I'm on mini degen tilt right now knowing that I basically have to wait until Monday to win my money back. And then Monday-Wednesday are just plain awful days to play anyway. I'd say that I could play online tomorrow but I honestly don't know if I have it in me. I wish I had enough will power to withdraw my dollars from online because there would be a lot less stress in my life if I never logged onto Stars again.

And now it's time to go back to 7CSFAP and see if I can read it without letting the lava coming from my ears melt it or me ripping it in half like Superman vs phone book.

I'm down 115 big bets over my last 24.5 hours at CAZ 20.
Is this a standard downswing for such a retarded game?

Seriously

Sure, you can expect that but I've never experienced such a downswing in that game. There are some solid players but there are many more trying to give their money away.

Not to be critical in any way but I don't recall seeing you posting many hands. Perhaps a check-up of your plays might be helpful. Please don't take this personally, but I find it tough to lose that kind of money in that game and am thinking that maybe you're taking the wrong approach.

I'm a little reluctant to send this but I'm trying to be helpful.

final tally of -$150 in a 150/300 game that I probably shouldn't play in just about any respect. Stuck like $10k at one point, lol.

Does it make me a bad person if I have been sitting refreshing WSOP ME reports to see when specific people go broke for like 2 hours or since whenever I quit playing?

I imagine driving here and screaming from the rail would be substantially worse.

Not bad, but a touch of the OCD apparently. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Indeed, my lurk to post ratio is astronomical. I need to remedy that.

Yeah, that's been going through my head too, although I did run at 1.75BB/hr over my first 40 hours. I'm pretty new to live games. I mostly play online shorthanded, so maybe
that has something to do with it. In general, it seems like
a tight/aggressive approach should do ok in that game, no?
