So I thought I would be ready to take a shot to NL10. Bankroll to that level 45 buy ins. I thought the games would be soft and I would be ready. I thought a six pack of beer would relax me. How wrong was I... I hope I can save one player by saying this. If you go to a higher limit, do it sober.

Playing dronk on a higher limit is like having sex with a BEAR in Baldurs Gate 3, It will create DAMAGE. Anyways, here are some hands I didnt play quite correctly. I lost 270bb that session. Luckily I quit early because I noticed increasingly psychoipathic tendencies like shouting high pitched noices when going all in 32s while strangling myself. Back to grind NL2-NL5. Thanks for listening guys. This was my therapy post

It is the long run! 80k hands played with 11bb/100 hands. (EV 12bb/100). I guess I am doing something right? BUT NO DRONK PLAYIN ANYMORE

Didn't read a single word but looks like you lost about $20?

Might wanna try another game if your getting butt hurt over losing the equivalent of 3 cheeseburgers.

But I love burgir

I hope i can get to NL10 one day. Must be so nice playing with the big boys. I'm still stuck in NL2 so it seems my dreams will have to wait just a little longer.

[ ] Bad beat
[ ] Brag
[x] Variance

Keep drinkin, IMHO

I once turned $10 into $1600 in one night, drunk (and I was down to my last $1.50 at one point)

How do you explain that?

OK had to disprove OP
Am drunk took shots at higher stakes
($6 -> $109 in 17 minutes)
withdrawal button successfully clicked


Also, I lost $150 today when I was sober...

You will get there one day my man!

I hopefully too It is painful when 1 buy in on NL10 is 5 on NL2

so when I lost 3 buyins on NL10 it was 15 buy ins total on NL2! Gotta grind it back and then another shot on NL10

LOL

that is one sick heater Sir.

Game looks pretty soft to me, huge fish named Hero at all your tables.

Read something about sex with a bear and came to the comment section to write this. I remember nothing else.
