Default How much is too much?

Hey all about 3 years ago I decided to make a deposit to FTP for 200$. I lost it and twice more. Then I made a 50$ deposit and played on that forever. Building it up to about 20k.

I took that 20k and had a great couple of months away from poker. About a year ago I decided to go back playing in hopes of doing a repeat. It all started off good making about 2k going through the stakes. Grinding it out all day, wasting my time it was bad beat after bad beat.

I lost my 2k and I went back. I kept losing, losing and losing. Keep in mind I have a pretty damn good Bankroll Management. I dont know if its me or what. So I went bak again. This time went up about 1k, then lost again with quads. I still had money left but I felt so bad about it I dont know what to do.

Now its up to recent months and I make a deposit again to FTP for $1k. It started off bad went good. I still played good BR management, but couldnt manage to get up again.
I started playing PL omaha and I did pretty well. After losing top boat to quads twice I decided to quit again for a couple of weeks. My name on FT is toyota4banger.
Iam sure some of you have played with me, and I was wondering what the hell iam doing wrong.

I was hoping somebody can help me out with a couple bucks. So I can restart with a clear mind, as I did 3 years ago. It will be well used, and I wil try and get back to you some extra.

u say u have "Good BR Managment" if this was so losing with quads 10 times in a row shouldnt affect your roll that much. 1K roll u should be playing 0.25/0.50 at most. sounds like u are playing a lot higher than that if 2 or 3 bad beats is busting u. also dont beg for money it is horrible, u had 20K and u blew it on a 2 month bender whos faults that??
