You can pretty simple calculate a possible downswing over a period of x games via a calculator on husng.com; you just need to know your winrate. If downswings are too often and too big it is possible that your winrate is not as high as you think it is..

when do you guys usually quit at that point?

i wasn't even really tilted just a little annoyed..
Man continue to play, 10 games is nothing. I've lost 50% of my bankroll in a day playing against the biggest drunks I ever seen. Shouldn't stop you. Guys that will donkshove their under gutshot. Call all their stack with 32s. Usually you make money but sometimes you lose 25% of your bankroll to just one guy, it happens. It's Heads-Up and if you can't take it those games are not for you. You need to be a robot to play this. It's all about analyzing the best course of action at any moment, nothing more, nothing less. But since many can't do that, you quit when it's been at least some games that you've lost control. It's good to feel those emotions from times to times. It's what makes you alive and human.

P.S. Am I a psychopath? :P

I don't play enough to get to a decent VIP level on Stars, so my rakeback is useless there. Where should I be playing to make the most money (winrate/rakeback combined)?

I like regular speeds and don't play very high.

Thanks.

iPoker isn't a bad choice for the non USA sites.

USA sites, Winning Network (Black Chip, America's Room) have fairly low rake to go with the 27% rb for you and possibly enough action at low stakes (might need to mix in turbos, but it's same thing as reg speeds really).

      What do you want people to say? What you do on the river here is utterly and completely irrelevant... You shouldn't have gotten to this point with your hand.

      Also, what are your thoughts on defending a min raise pre with 84o? Villain range dependent or largely a fold most of the time?

      Will tend to be a 3b before it's a flat.

      If we think sb calls a lot of 3bets it's probably a fold then, right?

      100% real. about one month ago i saw someone sitting from italy, but for few moments in 4mans lobby and gone. I thought that maybe its my imagination. and other guy posted this screen to me and now Im sure that what i saw earlier was real. the guy who gave this screen even talked in the chat to the guy from italy (have screenshot).
      the quy even send this screenshot to PS, and PS was surprised about it! they thanked for this informatio and said that no more information for the third part will be revealed. so i guess, we wont see him anymore.. somehow this guy passed to ps.com, I guess that he has no idea how he did it.

      but yeah i was expecting sooo much better, especially since i've seen the actual Jordan Belfort's interviews

      i really didnt like the narrative during the course of the movie
      it looks good on gangster movies or w/e to bring you to that world
      but in the movie where you have to 'live' the characther, for me it really failed
      coz made me lost the connection
