Down over 21 buy-ins tonight

I've never experienced something like this. My bankroll is well below what it should be now, yet I'm still playing.

1437 hands played.

9% hands won.

I simply don't believe this.

From that BB hand you posted earlier it looks like there is a pretty solid chance you are tilting hard. Maybe you should get some rest and come back at it tomorrow with a clear head?

That was pretty early in the night.

... which begs the question:

If Bigwig and Freemoney had a love-child, would it be one of those mentally handicapped people that could beat the $109's?

yesss!!!! It's catching on!!

Big- Just stop playing for the night. You aren't going to get even, and even if you could, that isn't a good reason to continue. You should play to have fun and/or maximize EV.

You're EV will be better tomorrow when you are thinking straighter and after a rest.

If you think you don't play any worse when losing, you are kidding yourself. I believe this is true for all but the top .1% of players (and fish who tighten up when they are down).

Tomorrow is a new day. Go to sleep. Review some hands. Take comfort in the fact that you are a respected poster and you didn't get flamed for this post.

Since people have already posted that you should stop and I don't want to be redundant, I'll just ask at what buy-in you're playing at [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]

bigwig, im just like you in these situations. i cant handle the big downswings in one day without trying to pull out of it. im so stubborn that i just keep firing up more and more despite my utter hatred for the game at that moment. chalk the day up to variance... dont succumb to the temptation to battle any more tonight, especially with an unsound mind.
