why is everyone trying to do a "NEILLY" now?

can someone define what a neilly is precisely?

Abandon bankroll management and table selection, take your money to higher and higher stakes until you lose it all.

See this thread for the most recent (and by no means first) example: http://www.liquidpoker.net/poker-forum/466286/Raidan_vs_NeillyAA_5k_HU.html

its a 'run-good-ament' at cash games. normally sh or hu, playing with a 2-4 buy in rule.

i really think it should be a 'xervean; tho, out of respect for him

neillydaments

lol @ nits attempting to be actual degens ;o

im definitely not a nit

if there is someone on this site i have shit in common with it's neilly.

I've been a nit for the last month though cause I don't wanna get a job and stuff.

in spirit of this thread ima try to add a 0 to my BR in 1 day neilly style

you're gonna go busto nero

I think everyone should take at least 1 buyin of their normal stakes and when/if they double move up. Keep going until you feel uncomfortable (Neilly is immune to this part). Kapol really only did a half-Neilly because he kept the buyin he made at NL400. No one should miss a buyin if you lose but you could end up winning quite a few in a quick time.

I was drunk. That's my excuse. And it was fun to risk 1 buyin and just play like a total maniac in some HU games. I had no expectation to win anything, I fully expected to lose, but if I somehow had a heater all the way to 10k I was gonna be a happy guy and stop.

It's really not that bad if you're just looking to have some fun and gamble. It's basically an anti-martingale system (many small losses and few large wins) where with some practice I'm sure a decent player could have the odds well in their favor.

The key though of course is that you have to have a number where you will take your profits, and then start over.
