that graph isn't just NL50 HU, is it?
no actually the first 65 hands are nl200 buying in for 50$^^, but aside from that, yep.
Exams are tomorrow and on wednesday, and after that i will be grinding it out for a week or two! ♦.
BR at 3,2k and i think im sticking to 16$ / 27$ s&g's.
What my cash graph needed was some perspective...

thaaats better. Not entirely NL50HU though
And thus a new compulsive gambler is born. Congratulations on winning the fkin lottery, next time you'll lose.
hadn't played poker for 3 or 4 days and just had a really bad exam, so steamed with 200$ on nl1k
well i doubled up. and then again. and then again. and then again.
tomorrow is the last exam for several weeks, so i can get back to grinding them s&g's ♦

but you will inevitably experience a few beats and then decide to win back the money by jumping up limits, because it worked for you before. however, next time it will probably not work out as lucky as it did now. it's a gamblers instinct, jumping up limits, you're hooked. recipe for disaster #1.
this is why casinos are happy when beginners get lucky and win, because they WILL come back. you can say they never even 'win' the money to begin with, just borrow it from the casino.

You have ballz.
I like ballz.
But seriously, this pot is roughly 36% of your total bankroll.
Before winning, you sat down with roughly 22% of your BR. Thats ONE FIFTH of your BR. 1/5.

(Edit: Did not calculate with the $400 chill pill dollars. ♠_confused: so results are a little off!)
No i sat down with 200$ and that's all i ever invested in the nl1k game, i couldn't have lost anymore than that. i just doubled up numerous times, and that hand was the final one :).
i think my gambling problem is a being slightly exagerrated atm, since i gambled for 1/15 of my roll at the time, and im playing my usual s&g's with 200-300 buyins ♦
Anyways, im looking forward to a weekend of grinding. Gl at the tables everybody

no. if you doubled up a couple of taimes and played a 2k pot, then in that hand you were gambling for 1k, which is a kind of big chnk of your roll. saying you started with 200 is just an excuse.
Thanks katavich ♦, and yes, i will!
I cashed out 4k leaving me with a bankroll of about 1k, still gonna play 16-27$ and some occasional bigger MTTs
Oh and to celebrate my 1000th s&g very late, here is my lifetime sharkscopegraph:
