Complete meltdown...

I can't keep my shit together enough to play poker online. It was fun while it lasted guys, I will catch you all later.

jaeh00d 12-11-05 09:27 PM

what happened man?

im guessing you went broke

Hawt 12-11-05 09:28 PM

I needed to listen to TP, but I couldn't make myself, I had to play catch up.

rookette22 12-11-05 09:30 PM

Don't tell me you lost all your winnings? :(

jaeh00d 12-11-05 09:31 PM

yea it happened to me. i just deposited today and am trying to play and take adivce from him and some other here.

like i said im a great poker player but a horrible money manager

jaeh00d 12-11-05 09:32 PM

yea dude by the way didnt you have over a hundred frm royal vegas?

Talking Poker 12-11-05 09:33 PM

Sorry to hear that, man. It happens to the best of them....

I hope you stick around anyway. You can always start over with another freeroll or something (and yes, I realize how much that sucks).

rookette22 12-11-05 09:37 PM

Sorry to hear that Hawt.

MAYHEM45 12-11-05 09:41 PM

Ouch dude. It happens.

Take a break and read some of the books, and come back with a new gameplan.
When you come back though, remember these two words: Bankroll Management.

Looks like I wont be seeing that 11 bucks for a while. :D

Hawt 12-11-05 09:42 PM

Shit dude I completely forgot about that my bad. I will see what I can do with what I have left.

studiopet 12-11-05 10:47 PM

I'm following right behind you Hawt. Got a lil bit left though. Changed up what I'm playing.....

Switched to .10/.25 blinds and nothing bigger than a 5.00 SNG until I come off this slide.

Hope all works out well for you.

TP please transfer the $10 I won for best poster to mayhem to cover part of the money I owe him.

Talking Poker 12-11-05 11:21 PM

Will do. If I forget, just transfer it to him when you get it. Planning on doing those later this week, btw.

MAYHEM45 12-11-05 11:29 PM

TP, just send it to Hawt. I was kidding about the money in my post above.

Hawt, I have faith in you and know you will get the full 11 back to me eventually. Take this ten bucks and see what you can do with it. If you lose it thats fine. I dont want to see you give up completely.

Sorry to hear that Hawt.

Poker can be tremendously frustrating. There’s often no reward in the short term for making the right decision – in fact, sometimes doing so can be very expensive. Winning takes luck and skill – if you are without either one in any given session, you’ll be punished. Then, on top of that, you need excellent money management skills and self-discipline to handle winning – or losing – large sums on money.

Plus, it can be highly addictive, especially online. You can stay out of a card room, but you can’t stay off a computer, so the temptation is always there, unless you take specific steps to eliminate it (closing accounts, etc).

I have a great deal of respect for the few who are able to succeed in the long term, and empathy for the many more who can not.

I’m getting murdered trying to clear the latest Party bonus, and have decided to take a short break myself. I’ll be back for the TP freeroll on the 20th, and perhaps will see you there.

Good luck in future endeavors.

rookette22 12-11-05 11:35 PM

Hmmm double post ? Guess we need to punish you now :p lol









I know..I know you were just repeating for mayhem sake :D

Talking Poker 12-11-05 11:36 PM

One was a reply to Hawt. The other was a reply to Mayhem. Their content just so happened to be similar. :)
