lol, how much can a cup hold? Back in the days I had a pee bucket.

Bucket seems a bit dirty tbh. I have used a 2lt bottle in the past just remember make a small hole in the side close to the top but below the actual neck so you don't get pressure build up when you press your knob against it and start peeing.

fyp

No, you squeeze some air out before you start. Holes on the sides are a liability 4 days in when you haven't thrown it away yet and kick it over by accident.

My last 24 hours have been pretty crazy...

I've been 6-tabling PLO10 and a bit of PLO25 lately on Pokerstars and despite running horribly (~20buyins below AIEV for July) I'd managed to build a $100 deposit to $1k. Recently I expect to run bad, but this one session last night was just horrifying, not just in all in situations but running KQJT into KK74 on KJ6 rainbow board, set over setted, 4betting with AA45 and running into 33xx on 349 board, just non-stop coolers. After about 2 hours, down 8 buyins, started trying to chase the loss at PLO25. Tilted away half a dozen more buyins at PLO25, then went to the pub with some friends to take my mind off it.

Unfortunately, drunk me got home at 1am and decided now was the perfect time to take a shot at PLO50. I am obviously not rolled for this, I have like 15 buyins. Sit 4 tables, and the water is not warm, there's not even 1 fish/rec per table. No problem! (Still somewhat tilted from earlier) I decided to take on the regs and crush them by playing 45% vpip, raising any suited ace in early position, etc.

When this didn't end well, I decided to use the remainder of my bankroll to attack the PLO100 tables... and, when down to my last $200, to 1-table PLO200 (???). I guess I had visions of 1000bb stacks and turning an idiotic drunken losing session into $$$profit$$$. I don't even remember the all in hand but it was gone pretty quickly and I'm staring at $19 in my Stars account and a THOUSAND DOLLARS down in one day!

Post-script
So I wasn't feeling great today ($1k hangover), but I decided to put my last funds into playing some sit-n-gos so i could play a few donkaments. Long story short, final tabled an $11 holdem donkament for ~$300, made small cashes in a couple of others and made the final table of the micro millions $8 HORSE (over 3k entries) to finish the 24 hour period with $920 in my account and pretty much back where I started.

Nice recovery. Great story. Thanks for sharing.

I've had a couple good saves like that when I would tilt and jump stakes. Good game sir.

This

Just did it the other day. LESS than 10 BIs at 100NL, lose one. Jump to 200NL and double up. Hey, I'm an idiot, but somehow I pulled it off.

I can see why the degens do it, it's exhilarating to have that much of your roll on the line. Way more fun than grinding micro tables for hours on end.

BTW plz don't judge my pathetic roll :c Ima dealer, not a player

the bitcoin story is ****ed up

No ****e. That guy could've been a millionaire with all the bitcoin that he degened away.

Poker player/high limit BJ attacker came back from Vegas with this story last month. I'll tell it in the 1st person.

I'm playing at the high limit room at Bellagio, betting the room minimum on BJ. Rich douchey hot shot gets escorted in to his own private table, playing 5k minimum bet, and has 2 mil in chips brought over. In the next 90 minutes he turns 2 mil into 200k and is steaming out of his mind. He demands a cash out, and a runner takes his chips and returns to count down 200k in cash and high denomination chips from a color up. Rich douche spits into the bill on the top of his stack and proceeds to throw the entire 200k at the dealers in rage.

Dealers collect the chips and saliva covered bills and return them all to him.

Verrrrry classy!

Sorry about that! I realise I was way out of line that time

As a dealer, I'd love to say "Thank you, Sir!" whilst tapping my toke box with fistfuls of his chips and bills...then just drop them all down the hatch.

dealers are such idiots

Im sure they say the same thing about most players.

Degen stories are fun but they should not be attempted to be re-created

Once the ball touches the gutter it's a dead ball. You got robbed.

One of many degen stories...

Got the inside scoop on an elitist poker game inside the Eldorado in Reno, NV. After winning 5k and getting smashed I sit down to 1/2 NLHE and proceed to tilt about 1k in 30 minutes. Frustrated, I go to roulette to try and win some money back. I bet 5 on red lost, 10 on red lost, 20 on red lost, 40 on red lost..... At this point I'm visibly frustrated and causing a small scene at 3am on a Tuesday. Unwilling to back down I put 100 on red 3 times and lose every time. I told myself if it hits once I'm going back to the room to order room service, smoke and watch a movie. The table max is $500 and I'm looking at a sea of black. Red is bound to hit so I put down my first max bet and lose to 00. After another shot of whisky and bumming a Virginian Slim I look at my envelope and I'm down to under 2k. I ask the floor to raise the stakes and I put the rest of my cash on the table. I precede to put the entire amount on red... One big score and I'm back to even and can go home degen free. The wheel spins and midway through the spin I shuffle all my chips to black. Needless to say it landed on red and i ended up loosing my largest poker win at the time on f'n red.

Martingale gone bad again.. So many times that has ruined me in blackjack.

Sad but real problem:

Why do degens even have kids? Don't they realize that makes for less money to degen off at casinos?

Wow, that is just insane. Poor kids

That is very sad indeed, but also just found out that casinos have day care?
