It hurts because you can't buy as many hookers as you could before the downswing. To combat this I like to keep my hooker bankroll seperate from my poker bankroll so you don't feel the squeeze (or lack thereof) after a big downswing.

You're very practical, but I'm much more frugal than you. I just saved up and got a Real Doll. I named her Britney after my favorite pop singer!! I don't know why my girl friend thinks it's weird that she sleeps between us at night.
