lol...from everything you post you have no idea how to play poker.

I only play PLO

$50 to $4600 in 36 hours and I can't play? Yeah looking forward to seeing your results.

$4600 to $0 in two hours shows I have a tilt / game selection problem. But I can play.

when i first started playing cashgames at 25NL i ran 75 up to 1k and then lost it all. I wasnt really a winning player, or break even at best. I was just in an upswing. Especially at PLO luckfactor is way bigger. So it says nothing at all that you ran it up to 4600. My mother could do that if she's lucky.

Mmmkay but I've done this many, many times. I'm an experienced PLO player and have been playing it exclusively for the last two years over thousands of hours of play.

I know how to play well and I know how to win; but I never learnt bankroll management or tilt control, so I know how to throw it all away, too. I'm hoping getting staked will lead me to treat money more sensibly now.

Why would anyone stake a perennial loser with no makeup in the deal? I'm guessing your buddy laughed when he saw your proposal.


Just because you ran hot one session and had donks pay you off a few times doesn't mean your a good player. Your $4600 loss at $5/$10 clearly proves that. It's hard to lose that much money at the stakes you play, but you did it in one afternoon/evening.

Get lost, stop stalking me [censored]. I have you on ignore anyway, but get the [censored] out of my threads.

You really think it's hard to lose $4600 at three-handed $5/$10 PLO with a $1000 buyin?

If I had to pay him back if I lost, there'd be nothing in it for me. I can't see how any player would agree to that. It's such a small sum I can get hold of it myself from my wages, or I could just borrow £250 or whatever off someone and keep 100% of winnings.

It's a small amount of money, no disaster to lose it for him and the chance of making a nice score. As I said, I only have to be successful 1 time in 10 for it to pay off.

On that site these were my first results:

$60 free bonus into $600, then lost because the goddamn site wouldn't let me withdraw

$200 into $400 into $0 (I never do well with big deposits)

$40 into $1200, then lost because the goddamn site wouldn't let me withdraw

$50 into $4600, then lost because the goddamn site wouldn't let me withdraw

Now I'm with a new skin and can withdraw, it should make all the difference. So long as I switch tables often and transfer him money as I go along, it really will work.

You're blaming going broke on not being able to withdraw?
