Default I suck at online poker...

I admit it, I suck at online poker. I have been playing and losing online for years, and I am tired of it. I bought in for $600 the other night and donked it off at 5-10 & 10-20 limit in less than 2 hours. I have no discipline. The first step is admitting that I suck, now it's time to improve. I just signed up for Cardrunners last night, and bought the gold package. Before I go further I AM NOT AFFILIATED WITH CARDRUNNERS AT ALL! I just want to say, that site is awesome. The first few videos I watched I saw so many LEAKS in my game it wasn't even funny. Those videos are really amazing, well worth the $125 price tag. I have so many flaws in my game and bankroll management is one of them. FROM NOW ON I AM GOING TO STICK TO THE 300BB RULE. To make sure of this, I am going to start a blog, I will keep it updated. If I know people are watching me play and reading my blogs, I will feel too ambarrased to play above my bankroll. When I set up my blog, I will put a link to it in my 2+2 profile. I just wanted to admit to the 2+2 community that I suck at online poker, and that I have no discipline. Cardrunners is an awesome site and I am going to watch ALL of the limit and no limit holdem videos. Any ideas on where I can start a free blog? Thanks guys.

PS: Mike Haven if this is in the wrong section I apologize sir, feel free to move it, thanks.

PSS: I know I am going to hear the Gamblers Anonymous jokes and all the other flames, I am prepared for that!

Ha, I know you want to sit at the same table with me and take all my money! [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] I won't be revealing my sn right now, because I won't be playing online poker until I get a lot of my leaks fixed.

I think you'll be better off making that 600bb+ roll.

600BB would be fine if I played for a living. I don't play for a living, I play for recreation. Also, I have a full time job and a steady paycheck. But thank you for your input.

Just so you know for sure, 300BBs means 300 big bets for Limit. 300bb (big blinds) or even 300BBs is nowhere near a large enough bankroll for NL.

OK I am confused, if I want to play $10 NL, $300 is not enough? Or say $100 NL, $3,000 is not adequate? Please let me know, thanks.

$3000 at 100NL is 3000 BB
or do you mean 50/100 NL
100NL is .50/1
