    yeah lol i at least did but i feel really fucked right now i pretty much should have 1400 in hand what pretty much happened was i kicked as in poker all night. I started it off with 1/2 lost my first buy in after QQ set on flop lost to runner runner flush. then I re bought played good ,and and ended up leaving that table being up a couple hundred and i went on to play 2/5. ended up killing it in 2/5 turnined my 300 min buy in into over 700 in chips in front of my. one big hand included i flopped quad jacks and the guy claimed he had a boat but i never saw his hand so i dunno bored was J10J98 I ended up getting a 100 dollar call from him on river and he mucked I also got a turn call i obv. checked flop and preslop i reraised his UTG raise. 25 to 65.


    I pretty much just feel really fucked up in the head right now because after hours of playing amazeing poker and doing my thing and even turning a large profit over 800 dollars. I decided to get drunk at 6 30 in the morning and I proceeded to go lose it all in roullette within 15 minutes after I promised myself never to do anything like that cuz I truly deep down want to be a professional poker grinder. now I have no bankroll nothing to show for I let everyone on my family down they just think Im just some gambleing crackhead who sucks Just because I decided to play roulette in 8 in the morning After Already haveing the win in the bag its just a fuked up feeling.

    Now i am going back to my 8 dollar an hour job when I really had a 99.9 percent chance of comeing back with 1400 dollars and I could of eaily built on that by playing more good poker and I fucked it up over one impulse moron disisoion (yes i had 900 right before i flushed it away really quik (still up money and a free room/free trip at that point and free food) And I bet 600 on black!! next spin bet the other 300 obv.) what was I thinking has any true professional poker players made mistakes like this and bounced back? like i still have motivation to play poker and win I still have the skills, but 0 dollars at the moment so wont be playing soon. Just i guess never play casino games again no matter what? cuz when I play poker I dont get that impulse feeling. I have a clear head I feel like im just playing a game that im really good at And I do Fuck a lot of poeple up and im never afraid to bluff or call I just do so many things right and Even When I do fuck up it dosent really affect my game I brush it off like instant.


    Like any true poker hustler out there honestly do u just not touch the casino games and can u relate to any experience u went through thats similar to this?

    I am a roulette/blackjack degen myself. I hate casinos. Luckily for me there are a ton of poker only joints her in MI. And now when i go to the Casino I just try to block out the table games. I've flushed many big nights down the drain at 21 or roulette. Now when I go to the Casino if I win and am feeling good I'll go put all but like $100 in my car and then go to blackjack. If I lose I just go w/e fuck it and by the time I am back to the car usually don't feel like walking all the way back in the casino to lose more $. When I went to vegas for WSOP I had my cousin who is not a degen. hold my roll - the few buyins i needed to play that day. I honestly had a few times where I said fuck it and played roulette but was no big deal because I knew there was 0 chance of going bust and would feel like a total degen asking him for more $ off my roll to go play table games. I usually lied to him and told him I lost it all at poker though.

    This is my biggest suggestion to you in all honesty. It sounds like you aren't just gona flip the switch and not play table games . So try to go with a friend to casinos or w/e and have them hold the $. And don't make it a pushover friend that you know when you ask for your $ is going to give it to you. And when you go to the casino bring enough $ for a few buyins don't bring the whole roll if you can help it.

    Small wins are big too. May seem dumb but book small wins. Don't even try to win a huge amount. Tell yourself I'm playing for 4 hours or until I'm up a buyin. When you win fill up your gas tank, buy a nice steak dinner, and pat yourself on the back.

    Being a true poker grinder, especially in live games, isn't all that fun to be honest. Its not about shipping huge ammounts of money every single night. You'll have those nights. They'll be fun. You'll have sick coolers. They'll blow. If you could eliminate the huge wins and the huge losses and just have the +1/+2 or -1/-2 buyin nights and you're a winning player you should be happy with that. The great thing about poker isn't being a baller. The ballers usually overextend, and/or are over confident and go bust.

    The great thing about being a grinder is the freedom to not have a boss, keep your own schedule, and to get to do what you want instead of working at rite aid.
