Ya I hear ya. I managed to win back a lot of what I lost the other day as my hands held up. I think I need to learn a stop loss because losing $500 of a $2200 bankroll in 1 day is unacceptable.
My thought was I don't need this money so if I lose it all it won't mater but I still don't want to have to redeposit another $1,000 to keep playing the same stakes. I am playing to make $$$ not to screw around and blow a random $1,000 because I running bad (possibly playing bad - hard to tell) and didn't quit.
Learning to stop loss would be a great tool. I think if I lose 2 buy ins to a fish I should just quit him as when fish start winning they seem to play better and it's even harder to get your money back.
But when fish lose they play way crazy and worse. Must be human emotion because I was playing one guy who dropped like 2 or 3 stacks to me and he started opening for like 12x every hand and I could tell he was really tilted. Needless to say I stacked him again and he quit.
