FreedoM Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 :peace: 2 ALL,About three months ago i lost my appetite for the game, and i started to jump from MTTs to SNGs to CASH and eventually i did become extremely lazy, and did manage to throw out of the window everything i learnt over the years and transformed in a degen gambler with no concept for BRM, so this week i finally lost it all.Now depends from what angle you look at things, from one point it is terrible that i don't have a bankroll anymore, i could just deposit but i won't, i see it as an opportunity to become better and more disciplined, so let's see what happens, let's go from zero to hero. Inspired by @MathrimC @Merenitsu @4soul @MiaKhalifaa and many others. :Lovekiss: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merenitsu Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 @FreedoM To inspire you even more. I'll say that almost at the beginning of each month my bankroll is 0. It's much more interesting to start with 0 and be proud of every earned cents. Without loud failures, there are no big ups. Good luck in your endeavors Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you should take a complete break from poker, as you're obviously unhappy about the past few weeks. Completely eliminate poker from your life for the next months and find something else to do in your free time. Gain a little bit of distance to the game. Once you get the itch again to play, you can start evaluating the reasons behind your "degenerate behaviour" and find ways to make sure to combat those tendencies. We're gonna win on so many levels! We're gonna win, win, win. You're gonna get so tired of winning, you're gonna say: "Mr. President please, we don't wanna win anymore, it's too much!" And I'm gonna say: "I'm sorry, we're gonna keep winning because we're gonna make America great again!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FreedoM Posted September 16, 2017 Author Share Posted September 16, 2017 Are you serious @WuDu time off, it's always crazy to me when people say "i'll take some time off" because ffs you're not immortal, so yeah thanks for you advice but i think i'm gonna push through it and hopefully succeed. xoxoxo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WuDu Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 Your words, not mine:I lost my appetite for the game; I did become extremely lazy;transformed into a degen gambler;I'm gonna push throughI don't know about you, however to me that doesn't sound like fun at all. And if you cannot stop playing when poker makes you feel miserable, you're having much bigger issues than I thought! I took multiple breaks from poker in the past and I will do so again in the future, simply because playing wasn't fun anymore or I had better things to do. It was always the right decision. We're gonna win on so many levels! We're gonna win, win, win. You're gonna get so tired of winning, you're gonna say: "Mr. President please, we don't wanna win anymore, it's too much!"

FreedoM Posted September 16, 2017 Author Share Posted September 16, 2017 @WuDu You might be right with everything you say my friend, but i see taking time off as quitting. If you're going through hell, keep going. I'm gonna do it or die trying, you just ignite the fire in me more, thanks for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psrquack Posted September 17, 2017 Share Posted September 17, 2017 Gl to you, but never forget, starting is very easy. I hope in the key moments (if you will have 1 or 2 euros) you will be strong enough not to gamble all your bankroll with a sng or cash game. Make a plan and keep the milestones and learn to avoid the seduction of the dark side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MathrimC Posted September 17, 2017 Share Posted September 17, 2017 Good luck!Maybe it would be a good idea to write a plan on what games you're going to play with what bankroll. If you have the rules written down it's easier to stick to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FreedoM Posted September 17, 2017 Author Share Posted September 17, 2017 @psrquack@MathrimCI do have a plan, Freeroll till i reach €5, then add in the schedule "10 Cent Step-it-Up" and with so many possibilities like winning raffles on twitch and a lot of private Freerolls like the Jackpot ones and ambassador ones, i'm sure i'll be fine, so when i'll reach €50 i'll move to 5-man SNGs!

psrquack Posted September 17, 2017 Share Posted September 17, 2017 Your plan seems great but I think all depends on the double trouble ticket. If you will get one and will reach the ITM it's time to reconsider the plan. If the unlucky way comes true then I strongly recomment you to use the rolling formular. That means put all the ambassador freeroll winnings to the bank, but use the bounties of all the freerolls(regulars and irregulars too) for one or all of the 3 times 10 cents Step-it Ups and the maximum buyin of Jackpot freerolls. If you will win a ticket at the 10 cents use to the 5 man SNG (because that was your original plan) and the winnings put the bank. Reaching the €5 may last for months so playing the 10 cents will give you the feeling that you are moving forward and keeps you away to donking out all the money in a bad moment. Btw what is your plan with the possible won freeroll tickets? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FreedoM Posted September 17, 2017 Author Share Posted September 17, 2017 @psrquack I'm not gonna invest in the Step-it Up Flips, but i'll invest in the Jackpot Freerolls and for the tickets i'll play them (i'll change the cash tickets to mtt tickets) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have 2731 challenge points what is not fair away from the 3000 which could grand you 5*€1 sng tickets. I think trying to accumulate that challenge points via cash game(you can exchange the ticket to NL too and the required points is approximate 3 minor challenges and you will maybe win something avia the king of flops challenge) is more GTO than put that on one shot.
