So in these last two months, April and May, I've dropped just about 2k at NL50. Yeah how is that possible after being a steady 3bb/100 winner after so many months? I don't know. But somewhere along the way I got brainwashed and forgot completely how to play poker.

So basically my roll got knocked down to ~$250 and my ego did not like this one bit. I had to go back down to NL25 to get my bearings straight. I grinded 2750 hands at fullring today and oh my god is it a grind. Played like 4 hours and got +5 buyins. Whew...

I've got summer school tomorrow so bye bye grind time. I sent out about 10 job applications these past months and didn't get hired. WTF??? Real life is sick. I guess I'm not qualified to give change @ $8/h.

epic fail indeed.
I remember you being really annoying to play with, but perhaps that was because you are spewing in some "standard bluff spots" ?
most horrific part of this is your bankroll management but I guess you already know that huh....

yeah dude take this as a learning tool. i know people who have tilted off 10-15x what u lost, one of which being a rly good friend of mine @ this site and irl. either way, u realize the error of your ways, grind NL25 as much as you can and ull be back @ NL50 in not time man. keep ur head up, everyone makes mistakes and you gotta learn from em!
