Take 2 days off. Do other stuff. Come back and pretend you're starting all over and set up a rule that next time you "tilt" away BIs, you have to take 4 days off...and so on.

I am stuck 21 BI at the $55's this weekend. I'm in that mode where even if you win the pot, it gets shoved to the other guy. But I am actually excited, I never knew that the $55's were fishier then the $33's.

Is that $1k at the 55's? or did you dump soem at NL ring?

he's probably more pissed that he tilted it away, than the amount of $$ he lost.

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.
