hey I got to go offload this flight ill come back later and check in on what you wrote. I think basicly we are saying the same thing just stating it different. Im not to mad I knew the play was terrible at these low levels and I would have to deal with some terrible beats.

Well I think you're abusing the term bankroll here man.

If you only had 200 bucks on PS, designated this your 'PS bankroll', and vowed never to deposit again even if it drops to whatever it's at now, then that was NOT enough for a 1/2 game.

If you plan on depositing 300 bucks onto PS, call it your 'PS bankroll' to play 3/6, and promise never to deposit again should you lose it, then that is NOT enough for 3/6.

This is what I was trying to say. If what you had was all the money you could 'play' with on PS, then you were taking a large risk moving up with such a shallow roll. Sure it's enough for 1 or 2 or 3 sessions, but the variance could and did eat that roll up ez.

You also shoulda taken into account the swings you'd face with so many loose players and chasers... --- IMHO this is a good thing .

I presume you've read 'Gambling Theory and other Topics'? Well I haven't *laughs*. But it's in the mail . lol! I believe the author says in there that the likelyhood of someone busting 300BB bankroll, assuming they can reasonably beat the game, was like 5 percent. (I think I read this in the archives of 2+2... aka: A gold mine). And this's with 300big bets! You're only playing with 100 big bets [edit: or 150 big bets at the 3/6].

I see your point and its well taken ok i fucked up I admit it!!!

[Windbreaker]

Everyone has one of those days where nothing seems to go right. It's better to just take a break away from it and find something else to enjoy until you can get the focus back.

All I needed to hear .

Just like to add that you get way more hands in 1 sitting online than you do in B&M. More hands = more variance.
