Losing $2K in 10 minutes is a terrible feeling.

up like 1k on the day

holla

could be up 30+k if that ****ing river gutshot SON OF A BITCH

I'm up over $200 today. Not bad for my limits.

i lost $900 on a black jack table over like an hour and a half. i was betting mostly 5-25 a hand.

sickest part was my buddy next to me (it was only the 2 of us at the table) was up $1100 though he was betting more like 25-50.

im trying desperately to spin the last 5.07 i have on ftp into something slightly less embarrassing by dawn. so i basically hate you all right now.

i played 1 hand today. internet is really shotty here. i had 33 in the BB with a CO raise, i call. 3 3 2 flop. i check, CO PSB, i disconnect, time out and fold.

i decided it was best to not try and have a session after that.

i remember coming home from school for lunch when i was like 16 and playing BJ on AP. lost 1k, the last being a max $200 bet where i doubled to $400 on an 11 and lost

i skipped the rest of the day and made one of these weird oreo-milk things where you put a bunch of oreos in a glass and then put milk in it and scoop the oreos out with a spoon

another degen moment was like my 2nd month living on my own i had lost like 1/3rd of my roll (which was a ****load cuz i was way over rolled for 100nl) and then one night wanting to grim someone at 10/20 for the laugh+anti-tilt it would bring. well he called the raise pre and i ended up bluff shoving a turn where he called with like 2nd pair and held for $1600 pot

it was 4am i went outside and started doing pushups in the front yard as fast as i could

playing HU was still the worst out of anything though. about once a week i would go outside and unleash on fence boards. broke a few punching/throwing a basketball and tennis ball

the worst i've done besides that is slamming my mouse down cuz i'm a vagine

i remember losing $100 when i was 16 to some kid after school who was dealing BJ. thought it was the end of the ****ing world.

prob made 500-1k playing BJ with my friends (always insisted I could deal) over the last 2 years of HS beyond taht. lollll.

then one day we were all hanging out to play halo, and one friend suggested we play poker. i had no idea how to play poker (was 16-17 at the time). tehy taught me the rules. we played for 5 dollar buy-ins, and i won 35 dollars.

holy **** how my life would have been different...

i was doomed to find poker was just a matter of time. i had to many different friends that were into strategy games. i just wish i had the soul crushing moments of losing $60 in our 10nl homegame on video tape so i could look back on it

**** all of you guys an your winning money today bull **** stories.....

hey, i lost .40 with quads. think that one over.

down to my last 1 dollar 27man... in 8th out of 8. then dbl up KJ vs k10, and next hand outdraw AJ to AQ by hitting my straighto n river... THIS IS THE STUFF DREAMS ARE MADE OF. currently in first now go gogogogogoggo!!! getdrunk!!!

I remember when I was still starting out poker and didn't really want to follow any form of bankroll management and just wanted to have a bit of fun. Ended up with me donking away 1k at the highest badugi game going on stars. lulz (was up 1k at one point..). After I realised that was real $1000 of real monies I just lost I got my act together and started the bankroll managements I've had two -$1000+ days since I've just moved up to 1/2. Its kinda soulcrushing the first time it happens.


I found poker on this little friendly puzzle game online when I was like 12. I just nitted it up and won all the little kids monies and was laughing with millions of playmoney. Got bored because it was too easy and wasted it all buying pointless crap and quit a month later.

dropped like 8k 6-tabling NL400/600 6max back in the day in like 12 hours

wanted to kill myself

but didnt cause i had had a 10k upswing immediately before then

since it came up when we were talkin bout mackin honeyz, here is my school career:

in HS i was a good but lazy student. mostly because my parents were relatively strict and i was straight edge (no drugs/alcohol) i graduated with a 3.5, 1180 SATs.

college my laziness + drinking + not being able to find a major i liked led me down a slippery slope.

first semester i had a 3.3. i skipped a lot of classes, but i was a music ed major, and was able to get by. second semester i switch to marketing, get a 2.5. ok.

soph year i start getting worse. first semester 1.0. bounce back second semester 2.6. i decide then marketing is no good, ill go back to music. oops.

junior year fall i get a 1.0 i hardly go to any classes. im probably up to 270 lbs, drinking a lot (not an alcoholic), start smoking weed more regularly (couple times a month). i switch from music to history. oops. spring i get a 1.8

my parents start to get pretty fed up, they give me 1 more chance to turn it around. senior year fall i get a 1.0. they say thats it, i debate returning to school. im depressed, 290lbs, not happy, etc. we agree i get 1 more semester, but if i **** up again im paying for it. that spring i end up withdrawing from all my classes except band 3/4 of the way through the semester. so i pay my parents back.

im about as low as it can get. i hate the person i am. i dream about suicide. im very depressed. i get counseling, like 2 sessions. then i start skipping that. i have no motivation to live and i wonder why im alive. then i have an epiphany. after our beach vacation i reach 300 lbs. you know what? i realize **** this, its time to fix my ****ing life. i lose the weight. i take the year off from school to get my head right. its amazing how your self image can change your entire life. im motivated, but still unable to find work (im living at school bc i had signed my lease). im paying for everything save a few things (cell, gas). after taking the year off, and not wanting to kill myself anymore, im ready to return.

i actually research some majors and find one that seems interesting. sociology. i still dont know what i want to do, but i can apply sociology to enough fields, and i should enjoy it. ill be returning in the fall to school, itll take me 2 years and a summer semester to graduate.


wow that got long.

not going to coolstorybro.jpg that. I guess it takes hitting rock bottom to really wake people up.

oh and you forgot to mention when the hot GF comes into the picture.

friend from back home basically murdered by an off duty cop last night. he was drunk, going 90 in a 45 (or 55 depending on which part of the rd it was on) and t-boned her. she was 22.

Jesus. Do you have a newspaper link or anything? It would be criminal if the guy gets away with it due to being a police officer.

thats quite a stretch. It seems logical that he will be at least tried for manslaughter.
