calling suited/connected hands "trash" is a tell i think. read super system. then get more money and start over. you are not even a donkey yet my friend.

If your going to continue to play poker, do yourself a favor and buy HOH 1 & 2. Read them, let it sink in. Read # 1 again, then again, then again. Do you know it 100% now? If not, read again and highlight.

OK, now you have it. Do the same for HOH # 2. Do not deviate from the strategies from these 2 books, You will start crushing uNL.............

100Buy-ins is a little high. You can probably do 50 and if you're a winning player

I've lost a total of $800 thus far... at the $5, 10 and 20 SnG

I'll stand by 100 buy-ins.

A bit conservative, but I agree... You read about 40BI downswings frequently on this board w/good players.... Variance...

I know how OP feels. I think I'm going to take off at least a couple months because there's been nothing but suckout after [censored] suckout for me in the last 15,000 hands. It doesn't help to get your money in good on the flop or the turn, even if you're 80%+ favourite because that stupid son of bitch donk to your left is going to hit his 4 outer.

Sorry I'm venting. [img]/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img]

You won't lose that much money if you played limit Hold'em. It is a good idea to read SSHE and build your bankroll with limit HE.

You have major leaks. Concentrate on whatever game you want to focus on, read books, go to the forums post hands. Yes you are supposed to lose money when you first start.

Here's a great link to Wiggs post on how to get sng and mtt summaries into pt. LINK
