don't tempt fate...do you know the statute of limitations for statutory rape? [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Ha! You got me all paranoid so I just looked it up and the answer is 3 years assuming my source is reliable. The last time I "allegedly" committed this crime of passion otherwise known as "statutory love" was 8 years ago when I was 21 so I guess Im in the clear. The girl was 15 and she was my first love. I think 16 is the legal limit in Michigan so I missed it by a year. We were together for 6ish months until she moved away to Florida and I havent seen her since. Now Im dating a 31 year old girl so thats like being with two 15 year olds at once! Lucky me!

how do you have a 1k stop-loss when you're playig 15-30?? When I was playing 15-30, a session didn't even feel complete unless I won or lost over 1k.

I play 5-10 to 15-30 and I have a $1k stop loss so this will never happen. I really feel I play terribly once I reach $1k.

TBH, the zone I tend to play the worst is between -500 and -1000. After 1000, I tend to just laugh at the absurdity of the beats and/or my bad play.

[/ QUOTE ]

definitely. after that many bbs you realize how precarious this whole thing is and it just becomes comical.

[/ QUOTE ]

Yeah, I actually felt fine after this and was in a good mood that night. Everything was so absurd that there was no way it wasn't a result of bad luck, so it didn't really affect my ego at all. It's the weird in-between combinations of bad luck and bad plays that put me on the worst tilt.

BTW, I've had one +200 BB day in my life, and now one -200 BB day, so I guess I'm doing OK.

I follow an old wisdom from the stock market:

Cut your losses and let your profits run.

I stop when i'm 100 BB down. First because i start to TILT. Second and even more important i feel bad an become angry and this annoys my girlfriend. No game or money is worth to disturb our familiar atmosphere.

I think its hard to find 4 good 15/30 tables, so I guess OP sits down at ok tables between 5/10 and 15/30 which often means 1 15/30, 1 10/20 and 2 5/10.

But I agree, a few good draws multiway and a few rivers going against u against LAGs and $1K is easily lost.

*

I think the worst days are when u are a bit tired or unfocused and have a bad feeling about it all, already when u sit down. But u still sit down cause u promised urself to play 3 hours. And then u quickly lose 100BB, u say to urself: ok now i gotta leave, but u keep playing and hit a few good hands and are only 35BB down, and now u think about leaving againg, cause u really dont play very well, but u stay, u want to be breakeven, and 45 min later u are down 130BB... I hate myself for sittind down in the first place, and for not leaving first time, and even more for not doing it the second time.
