I wouldn't say 10k is a necessity for a veteran of the game and higher limits. (Edit: It's probably very rare that the aformentioned hypothetical player would have below 10k in his roll, but I've been there in the past and kept at it without much fear) But seeing as this is clearly not the case I would have to say that it is completely ludicrous that you are still playing 10/20 with that puny roll while getting hammered the [censored] out of at that game. (I'm not really upset or trying to berate you, but you said to be as harsh as possible and we all need a wake up call sometimes! Seriously though, sometimes its better to take the high road and admit you aren't ready for a game. There's no shame in surrender and it'd really be in your best interests to rebuild at 5/10)

Good luck with whatever you decide.
