-100k

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...

It dosent need to put you on tilt but it need to accomplish something or you need not to play. JD has no job so his poker money he has right now is what he uses, he built it from nothing. I dont know how much he has total but he says he has 15k left online, I dont know if the 100k +15k is his bankroll but I will assume it is. So he just lost 90% of his bankroll playing in a game he should not of been at. Now if he has other money aside then thats different.

If you can lose 100k and 90% of you bankroll and it accomplishes nothing and teaches you nothing then that is sad. Now I have busted money out over and over but I have the ability to put more on if I want to, I dont think JD has that ability. If he is playing the games he should be at his bankroll should not take 100k swings, he does not have a 1.5 million dollar bankroll to be sitting at this game. again maybe im totally wrong and he has 1.4 million sitting in his dorm room, in that case 100k no biggie.

for JD to say he was not even sad about it is pretty sick, not because of the money but because of the % of his bankroll he lost. Not saying he need to tilt and be all depressed and whatever else is involved in a "life tilt" but he does need to sit down and learn from this.

What happened to not posting here anymore? For the 50th fucking time?

Im very selective of the posts I decide to post in, I have known JD for a long time and felt posting in this thread was worth it. I also enjoy posting in the HA section because its a great learning tool for others along with myself. I shy away from the drama filled posts like EEjit's and the general section in general.

You end up looking like a giant douche when you repeatedly say you're going to do something and never stick to it.

lol at thinking 100k is 90% of JDs bankroll and "knowing him for a long time"
