Default Re: NC: I tilted away $1k today...

Yeah, it was at the $55s, then I lost $75 in ring games. It was just one of those days where I lost 80% of my 50/50s, and when I won them, it was only to lose all my chips on the bubble in a 70/30. You know how it goes....

The money pissed me off because I'm about to pay for a ski trip this winter, and it just like "Damn, if I just hadn't played, I could have 'gone for free'. I haven't been able to play much at all lately, and I won't be able to for awhile. I'll win it back, but its just not any fun at all...

Sucks man. Maybe you wanna play lower stakes at school if a 10 buy-in down swing costs you 10 more.

sorry about the bad day.

i find that when i have the mental state you describe, i fix it very well by doing more frequent cashouts.

different stuff works for different people though.
