ARGGGGGGGH![ return to main articles page ]

I've always been able to turn things around, but it's tough sometimes. I've done ok in a few small things, but it's tough when you have to win a few things in a row. I've talked to a few people about being backed and so far nothing has panned out.

I've greatly mismanaged money which has put me in this situation. I started with very little money when I started playing poker and no job and been able to make it thusfar, but the last few weeks have been a low time. It's the worst feeling when you just miss making enough to get you rolling with the best of it (a majority of the time). I'm trying to just roll with it. I'm slipping in the rankings because I'm not playing anything major.

I guess the most frustrating thing for me at this time is that I feel I'm playing well (for the most part) and that I've learned lessons in poker that will keep me in money once I make a decent score again.

I can't emphasize enough KEEP EXPENSES DOWN and formulate some sort of plan when you do this for a living.

I'll be back.
