Bomb pot! No defence for my play other than I love to gamble... At 50PLO.

Also at 50PLO. Some people literally throw away money, don't know what he was thinking going in with some draw blockers. I'm currently playing 4 tables of 25PLO and 2 tables of 50PLO. Irresponsible I know, I'm just a degen.

Also that bomb pot represents 25% of my bankroll. I'm not at all rolled for deep stack 50PLO.

At 50PLO. Running good at the 50PLO tables and running terrible at the 25PLO which is lucky.

Got some nice run good, currently on $2,000. Going to take a little break and then get back to the grind!

Listen my man, you have older, wiser, better players than you taking time to reach out and try and help you with things they wish they knew or things they wish they did back in the day.

I for example am writing this to you while I’m getting dinner ready.

You need to stop being an idiot and spazzing up the stakes, you are literally constantly 15 minutes from busto.

You’ve got $2000 in your account, according to what you told us at the beginning of this thread, that’s an incredible amount of money for you.

Are we wasting our time trying to help? Just tel me and I’ll stop posting.

Also, some of those plays and pre flop selection is horrendous, you are going to get schooled if you keep trying to dance with decent regs.

Kind of a tough love post but seriously sort it out man take some responsibility for yourself.

Thanks for the concern and advice, I genuinely do appreciate it. I think you're right though it's just going over my head. I'm too much of an addict to stick to proper bankroll management/listen to solid advice. It's not ideal but at least I'm in with a shot of running it up. You won't like this but I'm currently playing 200PLO feels like a fast track to $10k and it's exciting to play... Just got in a massive pot which I'll share. I ran poorly at 50PLO, jumped up to 100PLO, ran poorly, got down to $1,300 now I'm running good at 200PLO. Martingale style lol

$1,200 pot at 200PLO. Running good could still go busto in a matter of no time. If I win a few more big pots I'll try and be disciplined and drop down to 50PLO...

I've stopped playing 200PLO, on $2,750. Going back to 50PLO - might jump back up the stakes if I go on a downswing.

You play a strategy where you will go busto all the time.

I know I play a strategy where I'll go bust frequently. It's hard for me not to want to degen though. Currently on $2.9k. Going to stop for the night and get some sleep.

$3k is flight to Thailand + 6 months rent + 6 months Muay Thai gym membership and a sh**-load of Pad-thais!

You'd even have enough left over for a few months of RunItOnce membership.

I also call BULLCRAP !!!

If you are going to do the Muay Thai gym membership, you might as well go full ham. This option gives you access to all Muay Thai, MMA, BJJ/Grappling, Kickboxing, Western Boxing, Muay Boran, Krabi Krabong and Yoga classes plus weight room access. Being a bad ass ain't cheap.

Shop around and I reckon you can knock off $100 for a couple of months of ROI membership.

I'm going off Phuket prices, my point was he can make a decent chunk of his plan happen now instead the inevitable if he continues taking big shots under-rolled.

OK, I rescind my BULLCRAP, the Muay Thai is priced expensive.

What do you actually get for $100/mnth for an apartment? I’m envisioning a pretty ghetto place.

I had a small room, bathroom and big balcony with a lovely view for $120 but I went through a tourist website. My girlfriend's room was $60 so I ended up moving in with her, I was a broke-ass student at the time.

Point is $3k goes damn far there.

I'm an idiot got up to $5k playing 200PLO, lost $2k, played some 500PLO/1000PLO. Down to $1,000. Taking my last $1k to 200PLO and not quitting until I'm bust or back at 5k. Wish I had the discipline skills to make it as a poker player!

Won a nice flip. I'll share big pots and will try and play well! Going on a 20 buy in up swing is entirely possible so I've just got to keep my cool and hope for the best
