speedz99 145 Posted September 28, 2005 Share Posted September 28, 2005 Ummm...I just punched a hole in my bedroom wall...oops.For the second time in a week, I reached the bankroll for 1-2. For the second time in a week, upon joining 1-2 tables I went through a series of bead beats that knocked me back down to a .5-1 bankroll ($475). This last few hours included AA cracked twice, KK cracked twice, three sets beat on the river, and a few straights losing to flushes, etc. Anyways, it wasn't my play, just the way poker goes sometimes.So...this isn't just a bad beat story. I literally just punched a hole in my wall...well more of a serious dent then a hole. My hand hurts.What's the most ridiculous thing you all have done because of a string of bad beats?

allinbluff35 0 Posted September 28, 2005 Share Posted September 28, 2005 why are you moving down so fast? why not wait until you're down to $350? Link to post Share on other sites
speedz99 145 Posted September 28, 2005 Author Share Posted September 28, 2005 why are you moving down so fast? why not wait until you're down to $350?I guess...but I don't have time to play too many hours per week. I don't want to get all the way down to $350 and have to spend a long time getting back up. I'd rather have less of a mountain to climb. Plus both times I got below $400 I could feel myself getting ready to tilt, which would be much more painful at 1-2.What do you think? Link to post Share on other sites

You should allow yourself at least 100 before going back down in limits, if not 150. That's the whole point of the 300BB rule : covering variance.What's the most ridiculous thing you all have done because of a string of bad beats?Playing on tilt. Link to post Share on other sites

I must have missed your comment...when I 4-table they all overlap so it's really hard to see all the chats, but when I find someone I know I can focus on that one. I'll look for you from now on. Is Don Giovanni your screen name?Oh, and I hope it wasn't while I was tilting and making an ass out of myself.And to close last night's story, I ended up down 50BB for the night. I also realized that 1-2 on party is maybe even worse than .5-1, which made me feel pretty good about my prospects. Once I swing back to normal variance I expect to kill those tables. Last night was just so painful, though. If I can stop losing to 3-outers all the time I'll be good to go. Link to post Share on other sites
