Need more information, but yeah you run good for a little then you run bad and go broke if you don't manage your bankroll, happens to the best of us.
Bankroll management is rule number one, never buy in for more than 12 percent of your chipstack.
Find players you can connect with n' you will break even.
yeah..... you can play funzie Zynga and get on a great run and become a multi-millionare in a few minutes... starting with just a few thousand... then when you decide to play a 5 million dollar buy in tourney with most all of your hard earned bankroll... you get bad beat some kind of way... go figure.. the same happens with real money
This is what happens to most people, but for much smaller amounts of money.Quote:

I think it happens to most.
happens alot more than not just need to know when to stop
Sounds like you are just luck-boxing it with no sort of BRM(bank roll management). Only way you could get from $20 to $300 in 3 days. Doing thi you are always guaranteed to lose it all. If you think about it, even the best players go on bad runs, so this means that u are not guaranteed to win every hand(OBV). If you only have 1 or 2 buyins and you have 1 or 2 cooler hands, or even just made a bad play once or twice(even the best players can make mistakes as well, we are only human)..well then you would have no more money to keep playing.
Google Bank Roll Managemnt. Then practice BRM. Then start stacking your money and counting the Benjis.
edit: oh yah and variance.. you should probably look that up as well
It's like that always for me man. these days when i get a good run for a couple of days, i stop playing for a day or two just to breath and start over as if i had bad beats. otherwise i'll start getting my AA cracked with some silly hands. i don't know about others but this works for me even though there are plenty down times
I'm one of the folks who can't keep a good thing going as well, it sucks.
sounds like most here. always going for the "golden ring" and playing way beyond your roll looking for a big score quick. Not how its supposed to be done.. but degens will be degens
