  1. Just so this is entertaining, I'll give you a back story. I win over $100g in August 07 and have basically pissed (taken some ridiculously rough beats, playing way out of bankroll range) it away playing cash games. This isnt the first time I've done this after a 5 figure score, just the latest and the largest meltdown. I have no bankroll (hundreds),and the only signs I have left of even winning that much cashew is $18g's into a 5 year CD in my daughters name (thank god for that) and a couple tv's and a new bed. The kicker is that I still do half way decent in MTT's and SNG's. Cash games just brutally kick my balls. I know I need to stop playing them, but I basically chase a bankroll so I can start playing all the big Sundays and dailys on a regular basis. I know the problem, but am obviously not smart enough to fix it myself. Is there anyway you can ban yourself from cash games but still be able to play any and all tournaments you want. Appreciate the feedback.

  2. umm.. self-control?
     
  3. Yea I think at 29 you should be able to have a little self-restraint. You have a problem if you can't not play somehting that makes you lose your funds
  4. Point taken Einstein's, but the question was can I get myself banned from cash games...you know since my track record says I'll play them if they are available.

  5. I'm not trying to offend u in any way. But I think u may have some sort of gamblingtype problem if u can't stay away from cash games and chasing a roll. I mean it actually is quite simple to have the self control to just not play. DONT DO IT, focus on the games where you make the most profit and stick with it. Not every player is and can be good at every game....
  6. I know FTP will ban you from cash games if you ask...

  11. im sure if you email stars they'll do this for you np. Cash games are the devil imo.
     
  12. you might just get bodog and play there though that would be worse cause ur money wouldn't go to helping poor people like the big weiners on stars who require cash game winners to donate at least 25% to charity b4 u can cash out . it would just go to frackin sports betz. and that is all my friend. also u might get full tilt or stars; whichever you don't ban your cash games your degenerate mind will force your body to download and you will download money and play there. and that is all my friend.
  13. Fulltilt does this. I don't know of any other site that does. FTP also offers ton of tournaments that should satisfy your MTT craving.
     
  14. i recommend not playing on full tilt in the first place
