lost 90$ in 2 days

i have been playin full tilt poker for 2 days now and lost already will be back at it tommorow with 50 $ any suggestions i will greatly take into consideration

Bankroll management would help. What stakes are you planning to play with that $50?

Also, keep in mind that $90 in two days is really a small loss. I've lost over $1000 in a day before. But my bankroll was over 10K at the time, so I could handle it.

i was all over the place mostly 1$ sit and gos and tourneys then i played that shit with the quick fold man i wanna make this profitable any suggestions

play 2nl that's all your rolled for. also go to the golden archive and do some reading. if you were playing 2nl and lost 90 dollars in two days there's a serious problem.

BRM is key. u will blow your roll everytime u fail to follow BRM

pick one type of game ...cash or sng or mtt..or rush

$90 is dinner for two at a decent restaurant. If this compels you to seek advice via the internet, then stop playing poker.

I'd say that a $90 dinner for two would be dinner at a v.good restaurant, dinner for two at a decent-good restaurant where i live is like £40!! You must have high standards lol

It depends on what exactly you are playing. If you are losing $90.00 with correct BR management in place then I guess you have a lot of leaks that need addressing before depositing more money. Try use the $50.00 for some books. However I believe you may well be playing outside of your roll.

Americans seem to get more for their money in terms of food and quality. A crappy restaurant you can expect to pay like you say £40.00 which is like not far of $90.00! I think for a decent restaurant you're looking at £100-£140 for a 3 course meal alone!

There is also no quick fix unless you are one of the very very few who have a nature instant talent to poker. It's a long grind but if you lost nearly 90 buy-ins then your game really needs addressing first before I'd deposit again because losing that many buy-ins and that much of a roll in 2 days is quite bad, no offence. Like I say, I'd invest some time into forums/videos and maybe buy a book or two but don't expect profitable results for a long while.

I'd stay away from Rush - It's not a good place to learn how to play.

Did you win any of those SNG's? Obviously not enough. You're probably playing way too loose. Try play money SNG's if you want to learn something without losing your real money. If you can't beat the worst players (play money), how can you expect to beat the players who are slightly better than the worst. (micro's)

As always, read books, read the forums, watch training videos, examine past hands to see where you went wrong, etc.

Food quality, yes. Quality of service/dining experience, no.

America is evolving towards getting steak and lobster from a vending machine.

As someone who's eaten at Michelin rated places here in the US, and at a bunch of good places in the UK, Switzerland, and Italy, I gotta say I disagree with you in a big way. America is the land of fatties, and we do eating out WAY better than across the pond.

Play 6.25 9 man sitngos. See how it goes.

SLOW DOWN !

The first thing I thought was that you are in a hurry. Deadly attitude IMHO.

Play play money rather than continue to dump cash into shark teeth.

Slow down. You can not be an overnight sensation in this game. Unless you are a gazillionaire, read between the lines, read our Golden Archives.

You say you are all over the place. Pick a game variety and stay with it. The quick fold RUSH games are probably only good for picking your pockets. Stay away from them for a while. I know they are exciting, but you want to eliminate the exciting part of poker. It is a grind, even when it is exciting, it is a grind.

Old saying is that poker is a boring game punctuated by brief periods of terror.

Slow down and study.

My simple advice to you-----Avoid RUSH at this stage !!!

Play 2NL instead or $1 SNG's. Play money is a waste of your life

YES. Also eventually Christmas will be celebrated by meeting and exchanging gift cards in the parking lot of Wal-Mart.

False it doesn't have to evolve thats pretty much how 60% of people to it now.It all started when they took the Christ out of Christmas an replaced it with a X.Then the brain washing commercials after Halloween if you love her buy her a diamond etc.
Sorry for the derail.

My comment wasn't really aimed at the industry and it certainly wasn't aimed at "the best restaurants in America". I was aiming at the consumer.

If you're a losing player, then I suppose any poker is kind of a waste of your life. At least play money is not a waste of your money as well.

We'll never catch up to the Japanese...

thanks for all the advice i will stay away from rush poker and stick to the micros and slow my play down but it seems like when i get the best hands somehow the other player sucks out and i lose wtf

right now im in a daily dollar tourney tonight and hopefully i do well i will update everything later on

I would advise you to have a positive attitude, I think everyone focuses too much on the fact they they always seem to get sucked out on. Don't focus on that aspect of the game, if you play your cards right and stick to proper bankroll management, you will win the in the long run. It really is that simple, the problem is that people play a couple hundred of hands and think that they just have bad luck. To really get a good understanding, you need to play hundreds of thousands of hands, and learn from each one. Good luck in the tournament!

thank you for that i needed to read that can you give me some proper bankroll management tips

"three businessmen were charged with selling used panties without a permit..."

I guess we've all been there, lol.

"There is no guarantee that all the panties marketed as having been worn by schoolgirls actually have been."

Grandma needed a little extra income.

As someone who has eaten in top restaurants in the UK and decent restaurants in the US the quality of service in the US is outstanding. They seem to try so much harder but that is probably a result of the tipping culture there. In terms of food I haven't noticed a difference, the food is excellent on both sides of the pond.

I've eaten at places like the Hilton Manchester fwiw and believe I'm the exact opposite of c9 in that he's done US and I've done UK. The UK is pretty damn good for food and has improved lots in recent years (not that I think for a second you're dissing us or anything obv)

Play the 90 man knockout turbo doublestack tournies. I recommend playing the $3 ones to start although that is a large portion of $50 being almost 10%. Try to freeroll your way into them by playing the cash games, something small like 2nl. Maybe set mine 9handed 2nl and then move to the $3 90 mans. That's how I started my roll. Also don't tilt! By the headline of this post, it sounds like a tilt post. Surround yourself with positivism and either be happy or fake it if you have to. But by being negative, that will only ruin things for you.

thanks for the advice but now my bank account is closed and trying to figure out another way to put money in my account on full tilt like a prepaid card any suggestions????

Sounds like more is wrong than your poker results.....

Playing outside BRM guidelines ... bank account closed ...

should we save you the trouble posting and declare that you are either foreclosed on or about to be served an eviction notice... ??

BTW... are your car payments more than 30 days behind.... or was that on a repo last week... ??

Not trying to be be mean, but it looks like there's more to this story than you are telling. Online poker (or even live for that matter) is not a 'quick fix' to financial problems... but it can be a catalyst to total disaster.
