You're not that good. It isn't a downswing.... YOU'RE MEDIOCRE. It is still decent money compared with a normal hourly wage job so take solice in that.

From down $10k (aided by 7/7 OOTM Step 5's) 2/3 of the way through the day to up $1k at the end. Never even done the down $5k to up before. Variance is interesting indeed. This game is a lot easier when you win coinflips, don't run into monsters, and get timely suckouts (I'm edumicated at poker).

Beer me, please.

Ah good, can I join in too? Having beat the $55s for 37% ROI over 400 I've then dropped over 30 buyins in the last 100. Lovely.

I blame Irieguy's experiment, and me joining it. [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

my assesment of poker this month? it's a stupid game, in all forms, that sucks great big donkey dicks. Playing said game for a living is a stupid pursuit and a wasted life.

Will any of the above keep me from logging on tommorrow for more humiliation. Of course not, where else is an idiot like me gonna make 100K+ a year without getting dressed or bathing or kissing up to some [censored] boss. Job sure sucks some weeks though.

I wouldn't say it's a stupid game. Everything else you said is pretty much bang on. About the only other thing I would say is to try and do something good with your spare time and your life won't feel wasted.

But I enjoy getting washed, talking to real people without having to guess the tone of their typing, before I come home, slob down, crack open a beer, put on my fowl mood face and only THEN accept being humiliated by said stupid game [img]/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img]

I just wanted to let you know what is possible. I beat the 55s for 12% over a 2200 sample earlier in the year. Thanks to a vegas trip and poor game selection at nl ring, I am rebuilding at the 22s currently. Just wanted to let you know that currently after 225 22s, Im break even.

Have a nice day.

Makes me not feel so bad about my 3% ROI over 234 $16 turbos a few months back.

Don't worry dude, you'll get back there, I have faith.
