[QUOTE="royalstud, post: 678593, member: 15614"]
Please help me figure out where Im at as a poker player.
 
I dont mangage my bankroll well at ALL!!
 
I consistently win the $4 rebuy good for $109 a pop. There's usually 25-55 people. I've won it 12 times. I have NOTHING to show for it.
 
 
My biggest cash was a $50 buy in into the 12k tournament. I took third place, good for $1100.
 
The following day I made it to the final table of the 10K $20 rebuy. I earned a modest $420 in that one.
 
I had over $1800 at that point. (won two $4 "begginer" tourneys prior to this for $150 and $120 respectively)
 
Within two weeks it was GONE!!!!!
 
 
How does that happen?
 
let me tell ya.....
 
 
 
[SIZE=6]CASH GAMES!!!!![/SIZE]

I felt invincible so I decieded to try my luck at the ring games. I started out playing my standard $1/$2 NLHE. This is the level I feel most comfortable at. I continued right where I'd left off with the MTT. Domination!
 
 
That's when it all went wrong....I moved up to the $3/$4 tables thinking I was untouchable...I endend up losing $600 in less than an hour. First the suckouts came. Then the tilt came. Soon, the self destruction.
 
I managed to hover around $1100 for a while but again I ran in to a bad run of cards. I tried forcing the action and played way too many hands. I felt like I was compelled to chase to make up for my bad play/unluckiness.
 
Soon as I knew it......[SIZE=6]Gone[/SIZE][SIZE=7]![/SIZE] All of it...... two weeks later
 
 
What can I do to focus my efforts on maintaing a solid bankroll?
 
BTW ~ My initial deposite was $40!!!!!!!!!!
