Default Re: How to Win and Lose 40k in 2 weeks

[ QUOTE ]
Oh I know, I didn't start with 5k at the 30, I started 6-8 tabling at the 10/20 (which still isn't close to enough) and after two nights had doubled up and then slowly worked my way to the 30 again. That climb up is the rough part but I've had about a week to reflect and kick myself about 5000 times over my stupidity and I'm ready to start that climb up again. I removed the blackjack icons from the interface but even if they were there, I want to be able to ask myself why would I play a game called 'Give party your money' and not even bother opening it up.

I quoted your post and changed (and bolded) the part of it I don't agree with to reflect the truth.

I strongly recommend you read up on bankroll management, because without proper knowledge in that area, you are almost guaranteed to fail as a poker player, no matter how strong you are in other aspects of the game. The short version, if you don't want to research it too much yourself, is that you need at the very least 500 big bets if you want to play mid- or high limit online poker. Considering the number of tables you play I'd recommend more than that though, since your winrate will be lower, thus resulting in larger downswings. Good luck.
