Scary Proposition

Last night I read on Twitter that bankroll of a pro I follow is down to $11500. He grinds out low stakes 1/3 NLH for living. That is a scary proposition to rely solely on poker or advantage gambling as source of income. I definitely would want to have 6 months living expenses also as a back up but unfortunately for some this not an option. I imagine for most, this rule is not followed.

Being Vulnerable

I showed up to work today and have not been fired yet. It was embarrassing considering I have had all my work taken away from me. I am waiting for axe any day now. I was joking around about my situation with other coworkers and they seemed to cringe. I guess it is a bad idea to be too vulnerable to people you don't really know or trust. I kind of feel like **** now and drinking. I should go to 12 step meeting tonight. I did call Winstar gaming commission today and they confirmed my ban is lifted at end of month. I have been following my no degening on VP so far the last 3 weeks so something I can be proud. I'm not proud of much of anything else right now.

In other news, I can't believe Bikeking's roll is $800. I would be shutting my pants



He is a few years (quite a few) younger than me so he has time to recover.

Floods

Back at the bar drinking. My alcohol and food consumption is a huge leak. Epic fail on that goal!! Thank God I have not been degening VP. I definitely going to do the 12 step meeting tonight. I probably should start getting my resume ready because I saw a job I am qualified for. Maybe I should just go down with the ship and try to collect unemployment, and just take the 13k I have and grind like a mofo at Winstar. Yolo. I have such a piss ass attitude that I don't want to put in the effort in a new job. The last 4 jobs all turned out bad. Working is unbearable today. I would rather just roll the dice and hustle and con and grind. I love Vegas. Vegas is good place to make my last stand. It is such a beautiful mystical desert with a big blue sky. My realtor is having a title company do a lien search on my house. I told her I want to get 40k out of it. I also thought of getting the 40k and try to suck as much blood out of my current company. Meanwhile, I could hone my poker skills at the Star (Winstar). Who knows what the ****ed up future holds. Thank God I'm alive today and I'm not in one of the crises modes where I'm calling Ronald (staker) for money. I still got the 2k plus liquid and I'm not in prison.

Showing Up

Showing up is half the battle. I had much anxiety and depression last night which made it a ***** getting up and going to place that does not appreciate me. I wanted to make a scene today and quit but I'll just keep showing up and sitting here. I figure I can get my liquid roll to 5k (Total roll 15k) if I can make it another 3 weeks. I going make these mofos pay for my unemployment **** to.

I lost everything. Except 50 dollars

I'm sitting here a 4:30 am in a comped room at The Inn in Durant, OK. Tried to sleep for a couple hours but nightmares were horrific.

Video Poker ruined my life

I meant to start playing live sessions of 1/3 but I took my free play to quarter bowling ally bar and proceeded to donk off $300 dollars. I was up $250 at one point. I know I have a problem because my body was shaking in middle of session. I then got into state of trance and went and withdrew all the money I had and blew all of it in high limit room. I left $50 dollars cuz I don't have gas to get home. I am also on payment plan with Reliant energy so my electricity about to shut off if I don't come up with $120 dollars on Monday.

New Goals

I guess I can't play poker cuz I have to walk in casinos where there are slot machines. I never had problems with live poker but I'm not cut out for the environment. I don't know if I am allowed to post new life goals on here. Maybe this the best thing that could happen to me. Maybe I need to refocus on my profession. This comes at bad time since I am about to lose my job. I suck at gambling and my profession. I guess have to unsuck at my profession and start focusing and studying.

Storm. I feel terrible for you. You can't keep living like this, obviously. I wish you the best. I'm sorry I don't have any better advice for you, other than to seek out regular/professional counseling ASAP.

I think I've posted this in your other screenname's thread but you obviously have no business going to any casino whatsoever. Grinding poker isn't for you. If I recall you have had high paying jobs. Please remove gambling from your life entirely including not visiting these forums. Good luck.

I'm Still Alive

Good news is

1. I'm made it back home safe
2. I'm still alive
3. I'm not in prison

Danny (sponsor) won't give me money and said I may have to go to a food bank this week. There is a church I can walk to near my home. I'm grateful to live in the US where we don't run out of food.




Johnnie Vibes has Pro Tips on his vlogs like staying extra nights in hotels and not paying.



Stormtrooper97 Pro Tip
Food banks are good back up when you go busto. Tell them you are an addict and in crises. You are not lying. Anyone who picks this profession is an addict.

You realize indulging in these vlogs/2+2 is just feeding/fueling your addiction/fixation, right?

Take DC's advice.

Glad you're alive/home. Get to the food bank & get your **** together, brother. Perpetual night terrors will be the least of your problems if you don't make changes, fast.

Update

Bankroll
Liquid $2200
Incoming $5150 (entities that owe me)
Locked and Loaded $5250 (don't have access at moment)

I know some of you think I have no business on here but I think I got my degens under control. I went to casino last week and only ran my $65 of free play though on VP. I did not blow the other $200 I had on me.

I think I just hit the final nail on the job front. My director asked me what projects I'm working on and I said 0.0. I'm sure I could of made up something but I can't I stand it not working on nothing all day for 8 hours. Of course she will go to my manager and ask what the hell has been going on for past month.


If I get fired my total liquid roll will be $12600 (above values added).

I tried to get Ronald (staker) to let me borrow 4K so I can get lien off my house. If I can sell it, I would be able to take 50k to grind in Vegas. I think he is ignoring my calls and texts cuz he does not want to have anything to do with me parting with my home. I was going to give him 50 percent return in 60 days - 90 days (if DC is interested).

This was the pictures from last weekend
















I have $75 free play and the spa tower suite comped again this weekend at Choctaw. My strategy was to finally start getting my toes wet in 1/3. I was going to take $65 - $75 (ran through) free roll and separate it out from $225 or so. Use this as free blinds post. This would give me positive EV in the game. I would have advantage on other players right from the onset.

I also talked to Dawn with gaming commission at Winstar. She confirmed that "I have served my time" and my ban was lifted as of 5/29. I asked if I can get all my comp benefits back like the golf membership. She said I have to check with players club.

On relationship front, I met a 21 yo old Tattoo artist in my 12 step meeting who I nick name the "Blonde Kelly" cuz she is voluptuous and a cute face but with blonde hair. We face timed until 2 am one night. I told her I loved her and said she loved me. Ronald said it would not last 1 week. He maybe right since I have not heard back from her in 1 week. Maybe she is just flaky like my ex-stripper gf. I'm sure I will hear back. She is 26 years younger than me.

Looks like Viggo has not had a vlog in awhile. I hope he is not passed out in a gutter somewhere. Although, I know gross anatomy can be grueling. I actually took that class. Unfortunately, I was flunking the semester so I dropped out. That's the one time I became homeless (I will share story in future).

Delusional AF Storm. You can't stop because you're an addict. Also, you're not in love w/ this girl, & vice versa. More fantasy. Listen to your sponsor.

Good Day to be Alive

I just have $120 dollars and my electricity will be shut off Tuesday. I'm happy tho. I'm alive and I'm sober today. Big deal. I'll get turned back on Friday when I get paid. Just learn from your mistakes. I can't brink back time.

Isn't that what life is about? Living and Learning

Let the Good Times Roll



July 1st - I woke up with seven dollars !!!

The morning of July 1st was scary when I only woke up with seven dollars. I hurried down to Choctaw Lobby to run through my $75 free play in quarter deuces wild VP. I cashed out for $101. I then drove to Winstar. It is my first time back in over a year since I banned myself. I took a $15 table game coupon and dealer said I only had to play $5.50 hand to get the $15 dollars. To my surprise I picked up a blackjack so I quickly cashed for $27. I then played $100 dollars slot free play in deuces wild and tickets kept jamming when I was cashing out. I had to wait 1 hour to cash for only $71. I go home with almost $200.

My current bankroll after I get paid this week and pay all my 30 days past due bills

$1200 liquid
$7800 incoming (entities that owe me)
$5300 locked and loaded account
$635 remaining free play
Total : $14935

I'm still not getting any work at my job so I am keeping a record of emails showing I am requesting work so I don't have any problems collecting unemployment. There is an 8 week appeal process after waiting 4 weeks if you get initial denial. That would suck. Getting those benefits would add another $1860 a month of EV for 6 months.

On the relationship front I am back on Tinder. I said I am broke but I have 4 degrees and attended Ivy League. This is true if you consider Tulane and UT Austin. LMAOF. I got two matches in first hour.

I did get an invite to the VIP Winstar BBQ pool party. They wasted no time since my ban was lifted. I don't know if DC got one. I get another $75 free play and a free gift. This is on top of $100 dollars for a total of $535 (including table game chips) for the month. I also get $300 at Choctaw. Total for the month is $835 at both resorts.

Things are really Rockin and Rollin and I hope to stick to my goals for the second half of the year. It's going to be precision play with no degening. I'm going to extract max value like I did July 1st. When I played, it was perfect "hit and run" scenarios. I did not linger around. I quickly cashed out. Like Winstar says, "Let the Good Times Rolls". Incidentally the people in the commercials look nothing like the ones I saw Sunday. LMFAOF!!!

vvvvvvv My VIP Invite vvvvvvvv

Crack Cocaine of Gambling



I was crying all night at Irving Bible Church recovery meeting after I blew most of my paycheck at LoseStar (Winstar World Casino) on 50 cent VP machines. I even got paid a day early because of the holiday so most of my money was gone before my normal payday!!l

Where do I go from here? What do I do? Am I a victim of high variance or just an addict? Will I ever be a successful professional gambler or is this just a pipe dream?
