Hrm... after switching to FT i thought i was on my way to 1k. I turned 50 dollar deposit into 283 in barely 3 days of playing(id say no more than 20 hrs of poker on 50nl). I thought i had it made, i had 25 dollar stack going all in with 44 vs my QQ (im last ot act) etc. everything going my way.
Then the downswing happens. I was multitabling 5 tables each time and I could not get over getting standard badbeats on maybe two tables. I lost 80 dollar pots AA vs QQ PF, and also, Set vs flushdraw on flop. Before i knew it, i was shortstack on all the tables and was forced to go all in with AK's etc. Ran into brick walls a few times. I'm a type of player that used to fold AK on the dealer button but something wasnt right...
i was raising with AK, getting reraised by aces and shoving... very unlike me i normally fold AK to reraise.
Today i played prolly over 2,000 hands and down about 50 bucks overall. I dont remember getting aces ever and havent really played any pots.
Im writing this as i bust off my last $40 on FT and last $30 on UB.
I got my 200 dollar UB check today, i got $230 in rakeback coming next month, hopefully i wont have to use any of the 200 i received today.
Yes i know im a Degen but i've reached 1k plateu a few times just gotta play more poker, and school isnt helping me reach the higher limits. I think i will stay at 50nl till i reach 1500 and take a few shots at 100NL

Exactly. We all get sick beats. The difference is our bankrolls can handle the variance so we keep playing and keep winning. Unless you learn bankroll management and stop blaming bad beats for your failure you will continue to be just another donator. |
