if you spent $50k on the car (using your #s above) I really doubt you could now sell it for $45k

What the **** dude? I mean, how could you have not known that spending a vast portion your net worth on a car is not a good idea? Can you list even one remotely decent reason for making such a terrible purchase? And then to come on here and ask if you should drop stakes because your bankroll is down to $5k? Oh, and I can go buy a brand new TT with a ****ton of options for $45k, meaning your car isn't worth what you think it is -- well, evidently you don't think very often, but I digress!


Ask your girlfriend to blow in your ear. When she asks why just tell her "I need a refill."

aren't u a supernova OP? just grind nl50 or nl100 or a few months and keep the car I don't see what the big deal is. if you lost the majority of the cash that you were comfortable playing your games with selling the car might not fix the problem.

This is the only decent thing in the entire thread lol.

You should not have bought the car in the first place, but now you did. The decision can't be undone, and by the time you sell the car and buy something new, you hardly have any left over to add to your BR. Therefore, move down and work your way back up. And learn a lesson for next time you come into money.

Now you have the car I'de never sell it, just move down and grind up. It shouldn't take you too long playing solid poker to rebuild a roll from smaller stakes.

But why did you not move down as your roll was shrinking?

Man that is a sick car though. I'd just stay hood rich, keep the car, and grind up. That is, assuming you have the magical ability to get funds another way after this $5k goes poof.

In all seriousness, sell the car first...add SOME of the money to your bankroll, leave the rest outside the poker world as a safety net.

If you sell the car for $40K, add $5K to your bankroll and keep the rest in the bank. AND THEN move down in stakes, maybe 2 levels, and grind your bankroll back up...if you lose your 10K bankroll, you still have 30K left...quit poker and do something else with your life.

It boggles my mind that you would spend that % of your net worth on one of the fastest depreciating assets that exists. This decision alone probably doesn't bode well for your professional poker career's prospects. All that being said, drop down and grind out the 5k, and if you go busto then sell the car, I doubt you'll get anywhere close to the value you want on the car as it is so I'd hold onto it if you can.

We're like two peas in a condescending pod, you and I.

No offense but I told you guys he wasn't good. I guess he might be able to beat low stakes, but unless he seriously improves, he should reconsider poker as a profession.

yeah and i think its really hard to improve when you had lots of success before you are good. I ran absurdly well when I first started and it took a **** ton of studying/grinding to realize how bad i was/still am.

Maybe because of this thread he will realize we are no just being huge dicks and will objectively analyze his game. Or maybe he will flip the card and play hsmtts until its all gone. WHO KNOWS!!! but i am excited to find out. start a blog imo
