They say insanity is doing the same thing over and over, expecting different results.
That is exactly what happens to me when I win big at poker. I move up in stakes too fast and lose it back. I have done this so many times I can't even count. ACCCCKKKKK!
Anyone else have this problem?
That's stupid, try make a BR Management and that will probably be better, make your own rules. :)
Nope not me. When I get way up I spend it on hookers and blow! :)
When you say way up u mean u ground your way up, or 1 big hit?
Hooker and blow eh, now there is a real gambler. Jayhawk from Vegas, now that is insane. Guess you're in the right town for those three hobbies.Quote:

So why do you keep moving up in stakes? I call it the golden ring syndrome. Instead of slowly grinding it up your looking for a BIGGER score!!
u should get rid of the idea that someone is chasing u and u should win something asap i think. i myself feel like that when i am tilt
I move up in takes steadily after grinding up profits. I mean a huge jump, from $2 and $3 WAY up to $5 and $10..lol. Grind those up to 300% and then maybe move up again
I always looked at my ROI. If it was still going up I stay at that level. When it flattened out I would move up a little, but if the ROI went negitive I would move back down.
PS: hookers and blow= razz ring games. :(
It happens, just try to learn from it and not make the mistake again. Have good BR management and also don't move up in stakes. Just play where ur at for a while.
good avdice dontplay over your head
Try bankroll management my friend, it will work
K, good advice from everyone. Thanks!
thanks good tip
Ive had that problem run good move up run good move up then sit back and go wered all my money go? lol
Learn to enjoy it. I never want a big bank roll on line. So I do what you do - I go up short stacked and play way over my head. Its fun as hell but utterly useless for building a bank roll due to variance. if you wanna play like around the .25 SnG ring game tables you need like $800. You have $5 from PO so I''m guessing you don't have $800.
why dont you just learn from your mistakes have you read the chris "ill steal everyones money" ferguson article when ft was up. how he never spent over 10 percent and ran up an account in a year from zero to 10k by playing freerolls
BRM is the key....a good brm programme will protect yer roll....hope ya win big again and get another shot...
i'm sure ya will..:)
as for sanity...lol..it never did me any good...i gave it up as a bad idea in the end...:):)...ya might like this one...its from the pen of mike caro...its an article called..." Why sanity never halped your bankroll "...:)...
