To take chances and make it big you have to lose sometimes and learn from it. I thought they were just chips when your playing poker? It is a lot of money but what can you do about it now? Learn and move and on. I am actually impressed if this doesn't put him on life tilt. It shows a lot I think. I know I sure as hell be on life tilt from it.

If it doesnt put him on "lifetilt" how will he learn from it?? How will he realise the value of money?

How then could anyone play high stakes poker and bluff or play a lag style? It isn't money while you play, they are chips.

your forgetting, people who play 300/600 NLHE HU and lose 100k in 15mins, can afford it. Jd doesnt have the BR for it yet, he will do soon im sure, but not yet.

THats a big setback

All great poker players have a disregard for money. Doyle Brunson said this during the WSOP I think or something like that.

I'm no one to preach about money management but since JD put it out there (again) might as well chime in. Seriously dude WTF, why do you make these posts? we get them like every couple of months? are we supposed to feel sorry for you or impressed you can lose 100k and it means nothing.

I hate agreeing with eejit (really I do) but his comment about the higher level players having the bankroll and losing is dead on. JD himself said he was playing way over his head against a good player which I'm still confused about. When you chase someone to higher limits arnt they supposed to be bad players you are chasing?

but seriously playing nutty above his bankroll is how JD won all this money so why would we think that having the money now would change him? It is a habit that either needs to be broken or he will go bust, JD has great poker skills, more then I will mostly ever have but his self control leaves a lot to be desired.

again im not the best one to talk about money management or self control but since he made it public in open poker forum thought I would give my .

No.






100k obviously means something to him.
Just not enough to put him on "life-tilt" or anything close to it
besides, when someone loses 100k, they might as well find a place to vent on it. I don't get how this is "Seriously dude WTF" at all...
