Default I lost my roll last night, help me comeback.

So, after playing 6,000 hands of break-even poker at 50nl I took a break and went to the gym.

I got back just in time to play the daily double and took the two worst beats of my life there. However, I had a huge stack in a 4k guarantee plo tourney only to just make the money.

I was very frustrated and saw that Quiet Lion was playing 8/16 HORSE, so I thought I would sit for a round or two. I was playing above my roll but not anything extreme. I won two buyins very quickly and was feeling very satisfied. I was one inch away from clicking sit out next hand but thought I could make more.

This is where things went bad. I lost a buy in back to a huge suckout and decided to open up some 5/10 and 3/6 HORSE to boot.

I then proceeded to catch cooler after cooler for 4 hours straight. When I finally called it quit, I had lost half my roll. So, very stupidly but naturally, I jumped up to the 15/30 game that was running.

And, within the first five min I was up about $500. This cut my losses on the night to about 1/5 of my roll. But once again very stupidly but naturally, I thought I could win it all back.

And then the coolers came and needless to say I lost it all.

Well, then there is rakeback. And this month my rakeback equals my previous roll. (I played a lot of hands) So, I have about a week to bask in my demise and figure out a way not to let it happen again.

Please offer advice and support. Thanks.





Cliff Notes: I lost my entire roll but played so many hands that my rakeback = my entire roll.

For future reference - you will run amazingly well until the thought of leaving the game enters your mind. Most new software has built in ESP and it is proven that you will lose everyhand from here on out. The only way around this is.....

never play above your roll, it's been said countless times but only followed very few times.

Something very strange about them. I think FT puts bots in there to play. This is serious. I have very strange HH's to prove it.

Yes it was.

I was playing with 50 buyins and I can't believe this happened. Even looking back on it, it doesn't make any sense. I would say that I tilted away maybe $400 of the $1600 and lost the rest to extreme bad luck.

I did chase my losses though, and I think that's all it was; a very bad run while playing above my roll.

I'm starting to hate those people who take shots and run like god because it never happens to me.
