Default ok

this is gonna sound very very funny comming from me but im guessing if you lose your bankroll in 1 night then your playing way above what you should be by how much bankroll you have. Take me for instance I have a $400 bankroll and im playin $10NL, that way I can take the bad swings and still come out on top by playing good poker.

As for not being able to stop yes if you cant control yourself at all I suggest quiting now. You are gonna have nights where you dont seem to hit anything but if your playing within your bankroll this will not be a problem.

what are you playing?

I personally dont concider how much you have made as determining if you are a good player or not. I think its more about how consistant you are, I turned $25 into over 2k but I was playing terrible which is why I lost it just as easy. Take players here for instance, most players here play within their limits and always have a bankroll online and are never in huge risk of losing it. Now If I were to take my bankroll up to $50 NL then I would be in big jepordy of losing it. You have to stay within your limits, if you cant stop playing.
