...and feeling bad about it.

yesterday i was sitting here with a mate drinking beer and ranting about various poker stuff while browsing the lobby for cool games to spectate.after 1 hour and a few beers later i randomly click on a 1/2 table and a guy with a 900$ stack gets my attention immediately and im like "look at this lucky fag , sitting with almost 1000$ there!". my mate looks at the name and says "haha i know this guy. i was sitting on a micro 180 FT with him. he was shit talking to ppl all the time". we open up ptr.com and look him up. turns out hes -2000$ on 1/2 over 500 hands or so. we also find out that i donked off around 500$ over the past 2 years with my small deposits. we have a good laugh about my huge fail and then come back to the 1/2 table. my mate a bit drunk already proposes like a true degen "lets get this guys money!". naturally at first i say no but eventually he convices me to buy in for the minimum of 40$ (remember thats still 4 buyins at my regular limit) with the deal that if we lose it he will pay the alcohol next weekend.
long story short - after 30minutes of 1/2 gambling im sitting there with 308$ when i call it a day after losing our first bigger pot. we couldve won more of that guy probably but we played so scared money. we checked KK 2 times on a 25T9J board cause villain played his AT so aggresive and we didnt get it in with JJ on a AJ8 flop cause we were afraid of aces hahahaha.
so now im sitting here with a 500+$ roll ready to play nl25 just after 2 weeks of starting at nl2 with 50$ and im kinda feeling bad about it!

Your as fucking retarded now as you were when you joined that 1/2 table if you think you can move up to NL 25 already, Stick with NL10 and be grateful you ran good enough to have a very cushioned bankroll. Don't move up until you make 30-40 buy ins at NL 10

Fuck me

Do the right thing. Have discipline. Otherwise you'll be the guy I make my money off of.

Why would you be scared to get it in w/ JJ on AJ8 lol.

Anyway, just stay on NL10 until you feel you beat it. Don't use lucky winnings like that to move limits. If it's hard, cash out the extra cash, problem solved.

My favourite line is Bet/Fold. I bet, you fold.
