Lol, it's funny cause just as I was reading your post I was needling Diplomat on MSN about coming down for some live play. He's such a workin' man now especially since he got that ball n' chai....err..wedding ring. Talk him into it, you know I'm game.

You deserved that beat after mucking that AT in the split pot. Lol, that still cracks me up.

i paid for a lot of stuff. i spent a lot on things like a brand new drum set, trips everywhere, and college tuition. i had like a 4k bankroll during my last semester of college and i went broke playing 10/20 6 max

Well, at least you have a set of drums to keep you busy since you don't have a bankroll.

I started my latest roll with $.15 on a .01-.02 table.

That's only 7BB! That's horrible bankroll managment and is a good way to go broke. You may want to read up on br managment in the beginners forum.

Agreed, with a $0.15 roll, you should ideally be playing for negative bets. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

This is the first time I've ever laughed out load reading anything on this forum.

No, not me. How are the strip clubs in Quebec? I've heard some good thing and need confirmation.

How do you walk with those balls the size of watermelons?

Wish I could take more risks and shots without feeling like I want to die.

Bah.

It looks like the trend here is that you have to take shots to get anywhere, unless you want to take years to get from $1/$2 to $30/$60.

in my rise through the levels (only to 10/20 algthough i could play higher) i have always had an adequate bankroll.

That's good to hear. If you don't mind my asking, how many hands has it taken for you to move from one limit to another?

well i think it helps that i dont play for a living and losing 1/3 of my roll over a few days isn't hugely detrimental to me.

also, im ultra-competitive and im not happy playing lower limits if i think i can beat them easily.

lastly i really like money and i feel like in the long run moving up is better, although in the short run it may be awful
