    Well kids.

    After that 500 dollar score in the 2.20 tournament here a while back, I cashed out all but 150 and tried to play 5nl to grind myself back up to a reputable amount.

    I lost my last 8 bucks last night playing 2nl. I deposited more than a year ago.. which was 25 bucks.

    Pretty down on myself right now. I guess I'll take a big break from it all. Seems the more I study, the worse I get.

    Anyway, catch you fools in the Commune. Maybe I'll deposit, maybe I'll take spoons advice and find a new fuckin' hobby. I'll keep you posted.

    how do you lose 30 buyins at 5NL?! that's either a ridiculous swing or you must have several leaks in your game...

    appreciate it guys. We've all been to this point I think. I'm not coming back until I've bought HEM and taken enough of a break to matter. I'm also going to try to memorize Theory and Practice word for word.

    Man that sucks! Seriously the probability of you busting out all the SnGs must be .0000001%. Maybe you had bad runs and became under confident of your plays. But be happy you did so well with +$350 from 25 :]. That's an accomplishment right?!
