I am going friggin nutz right now and I cannot stand this feeling. The pathetic thing is that I know this feeling. I am very very familiar with it although it has been a few months since I felt it. Back in July (after playing live home games for several years) Me and my friend discovered online poker. We were also deceived into thinking we could beat the games after having our first two nights exceedingly profitable. However, I had never heard of bankroll management and played 2/4 with low roll. It took a little over a month for me to blow 4 thousand. I was completely broke - I saved up some more money back in August and tried again and got bored with the low stakes and tried moving up and went bust again. Now I was completely flat ass broke - I could barely afford groceries. So I spent the entire month of September rebuilding my life. On Oct 3rd I deposited $200 in Pokerstars with a desire for a new beginning. It is now Oct 9th and I am bust off of straight NL 10 - Fucking ridiculous. Poker is my passion and I love the game and I don't even want to begin to think about giving up but it is literally ruining my life.

gabe kaplan commentated on hsp once that the best players have their shit together, more or less
sometimes you just have to try to take a step back fix your life and come back to it
you come back stronger and with a cleaner mind. |

so the question is, how far down the rabbit hole do you go

fix your life first. You should never of busted 20 BI at NL10 as a winning player there, your edge should be too great. I imagine that you went on some huge monkey tilt..
Restart at nl5 for a while when your poker monkey has nothing to do with the rest-of-your-life money.

I had my shit together very much so. I was so proud of myself at the end of September for digging myself out of the $500 debt I had with $600-$700 in bills a month while working only 32 hours a week and taking 12 semester hours. But now I am feeling ridiculously pathetic again.
