Convince me not to cash out all my money online

[Boobie Lover]

Because I'm seriously thinking about it. I fucking hate poker at the moment, but yet I'm a degenerate that if I have money online I'm sure I will play something.

If you cash out and change your mind, you may have a VERY difficult time getting your money back online.

If you don't cash out and still want to in a week or so, you can still cash out then.

I assume you are running badly. It happens. You're a winning player and you will continue to be a winning player in the future, so keeping your money online sounds like a good business decision to me... unless of course you think you might tilt off your entire roll or something.

If that's the case, transfer at least $10,000 to someone you trust and tell them not to transfer it back to you until xx/xx/xxxx and no sooner. Cash out the rest. That way, you won't have any money left to play with online, but you'll be able to get back in the game if and when you decide you want to. Choose the date carefully.

^^ This is a smart person. Listen to smart persons.

[Boobie Lover]

Yeah, cashing out probably wouldn't be wise. So, instead, I'll take a two week+ break.

$100 bounty to anyone if you see me playing in the next two weeks.

Maybe I should stick to tournaments.

[Zybomb]

So it's a wash with your Bahamas prize --- you're fine!

[eejit101]

ouch, good idea with tourneys, hell, play alot of SnGs, not bad money there.

[Talking Poker]

How many hands played and what limits?

Looking at your avatar just now, I remembered that Longshot beat you HU the other day too. Maybe you should cash out after all...

You're pretty nosey for someone who changes his name to "hero" to keep his privacy.

[Talking Poker]

That was a hand that Boobie had posted a while back. He was reminding him that luck will go his way again.
