But dammit if I’m taking a break!

punching bag. Sincere apologies to jasonlove.comSince I’m fresh out of videos and quotes, I guess I will have to add some uniqe content. Unfortunately I’m card dead when it comes to news.

Past few days, I’ve been running into one cooler after another, cutting my already meager roll to almost 50 percent of what it was a week ago.

Can’t make money heads up. Can’t make money in LHE. Can’t make money in MTT.

So there.

Hate that. No, let me rephrase that: I HATE IT, HATE IT, HATE IT! AAAAAARGH!!

Oh, btw: If you have any experince in making the Hold’em Manager  HUD look pretty (as opposed to stats sitting on top of players names or stack size, or just in a plain wrong spot), give me a hint, please! I have the latest patched version. Think it’s 1.09 Beta 26 or something. Well, not “something”, it’s actually correct, now that I’ve checked.

And thanks for listening, I feel much better now.

    Sorry to hear it’s going like that. At least you have the cute cartoon!

    Excellent choice, sir! Just can’t keep my fingers from tapping “one-two one-two one-two-three” on the table.

    50% bankroll hit? Were you playing the same stakes throughout your downswing instead of moving down?

    Ah…well, let’s not get into that…

    Fair enough. I’d be quite the hypocrite if I acted like I always have pristine BR management.

    Good luck to you. Start running better immed.

    @FkCoolers
    Thanks!

    I actually practice a very rigid BRM, but about a month ago, I decided to let it go, at least for a while. My roll had gotten very small after a finance crisis related cashout.

    I wanted to play some stakes that were beyond what I’d be able to play. So the downswing is really just one of those things that happen. It’ll turn around, if nothing else then I’ll grind the $5 SNG’s like a madman until.
