I am stupid

How do you stop yourself from making those stupid plays? I moved up in a limit and just lost everything I made over the last 3 days. AHHHHHHHHHHHHh

I got greedy on Christmas.....booooo

i have the same problem.

i lose, then try harder i guess you could say and win it back, if thats what i coud call it. im stupid too

This is not a constructive use of anyone's time.

Also, 3 days worth of play means exactly zero.

The thing was was that I lost it playing 6max while someone was trying to help me. Then I moved to full-ring 2/4 and won it back to bring me to b/e. Now i'm back to day 1.

I know nobody cares, but it's an ongoing problem with my game. So it isn't a waste of time, it was a serious question in some sorts - How do you stop yourself from making stupid plays, the plays that are negative infinite EV.

If it makes you feel any better I am in the middle of taking a drunken stab at $10/$20 (normally a $5/$10 player) and am down about $1,000 in the last 45 minutes. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

You obviously have a bigger bankroll than I do. And it could be safe to say that overall you are in the green?

I am playing around breakeven, which makes me sick because I know I am better than that.

I'm in the green at $5/$10 over many hands, but I think I'm a little out of my depth right now. Could be variance, could be drunken donkiness. Meh, whatever.

Edit: 6-max is high variance. You will have a lot of these experiences. Just focus on making the right plays in the long run.
