Update
Well, after trying to grind it out at the 5 10 cent limit game and losing my mind, i tried my luck at the hu sng's. I went broke after going on tilt. this is nothing new for me i am a losing online player who goes broke a lot. however, i am determined to become a winning player, so hopefully i can make a video next time and someone can analyze my play. hopefully it wont be an ultra low limit game...ill update again when i make another deposit.

After reading a post from JDmcnugent's thread I picked up a term that I sometimes describe my poker life as...lifetilt...When i first started playing poker i dropped about 1k and then went on to turning $50 into 1k. However I ended up losing 1k again...after this i lost a good deal of money and went on a sort of "lifetilt". I know that I am a smarter player now then i was a few years ago, but being on tilt just cancels it out. When I was first playing poker, I was a very tight player, but didn't know when to laydown a hand. Maybe the $50 to 1k rush I had was all luck. I have never been able to build my bankroll up to $500 before going broke. The solution I see is twofold.
1.I need to cash out while I'm up so that I don't go broke, and on the same note 2.I need to stay off tilt so I don't go broke. My final thought is that I'm probably going to take a hiatus from the poker world and come back refreshed and ready to play serious poker. |

or, real some books, learn the game better, and play within your limits and you should never go broke.
Its all mental - your picturing big wins and thinking that sitting with all of your roll is the way to do it. |

thanks for the advice, any suggestions on what books to read? I've read super system and phil gordon's the real deal and also caros book of tells, although i cant remember most of them. its been a while since ive read these books, i sold both s.s. and caro's book. phil gordon's book sucked, super system seems more for the high-stakes player, and caros book of tells is for live games, so i would like to get a book or two that i can lay the basis for my style down

You don't need to buy a book to play within your bankroll. If you do, send me $20 and I'll type it here for you.
As for what book to buy to get better as a player, that depends on what game you plan on focusing on for starters: Cash, MTT, SNG? HU, 6 max, full ring? Limit, NL, other? |
