i think pretty much poker is a game that has to be played for fun, until you become a true pro. the fact that you can build your bankroll to a certain point and lose it to some idiot, really makes it tough to justify all the time you put into it. i think at some point it becomes a decision as to whether you just like playing poker or you actually want to get serious about it.

Brian, you can lose your whole bankroll playing limit - just probably not in one hand. One bad session at $5/10 L is the same if not worse as a bad *hand* at the $100 or $200 NL tables.

And, by the way, he seems like a good player. I can empathize with his frustration - it happens to me (and everyone else?) all the time.

yea i agreee but he was saying he lost his whole bankroll in one hand unless I missread, which is possible. Dont know im a better limit player then no limit so alot of my answers contain the words play limit.
