And thus a new compulsive gambler is born. Congratulations on winning the fkin lottery, next time you'll lose.


...the 1593th hand was worth 1.000,00$?

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. :f_confused: :f_confused: :f_confused:

(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.
