see, me and lightfungus are alike, i think hes young too. are you ? and we both obviously play out of our bankroll. He sits with 50% and i have often times sat with 75%, even 100% before. I guess it's just us young kids dont understand our limits. It obviously works for him better tho cuz i lost all mine and he didnt lol. good luck fungus, but i learned my lesson and i am going to play at no MORE than 15% from now on. hopefully u wont have to learn the hard way like i did.

![]() lightfungus has a history of playing disaplined he knows when to stop you have told us you dont. If I were you I would stick to maybe .05/.10 NL for a little while, this may not sound like much for you to win but trust me the money is there you need to work on your disapline before you attempt to play out of the 5% of your bankroll. |

ya i think im gonna play .10/.25 at the highest for awhile. I can definetely get my discipline back, i used to be great at it. I will get it back and hopefully my bankroll will slowly and steadily increase, instead of being WAY UP and then WAY DOWN all in single nights like it used to be.

I have learned. I have lost a bankroll in the 300 range after a deposit of 50 playing outside my means too. That was well over a year ago. So I learned, and I very well may learn again, but I play the NL pretty tight with a routine with cards and all seeing 12-18% of flops. But I have learned. Poker seems very willing to teach. It giveths and it takeths away. I guess you just have to hold on tighter when it is taking it away.

I have had my fair share of bustouts, I try to stick to tornaments most of the time. I concider myself a much better tornament player then a cash game player and something about paying $5 or $10 to play sounds better to me then playing $100 NL. If you really think you cant control yourself on the tables you might just try to play some tornaments, they are great practice for the little money you invest.
With all the issues going on at the house I just play one $5 or $10 tornament on my day off and it seems to be good for me so far. Not gonna get rich of tornament but your not gonna blow your whole bankroll either. Last edited by BrianSwa; 07-16-05 at 06:38 PM. |
