| A CD is, I think, like what we call in Canada a GIC...guaranteed investment certificate...with a low but albeit guaranteed interest rate. For very low-risk investors. Definitely not for ballers. |

not really being a bankroll baby... you have 28 buyins for the level you play. So according to the 20 buyin rule you are where you should be, but I think the 20 buyin rule is silly. Overroll yourself it will make you feel much better. |

I think the reason why everyone says they are winners is because you wont get many losing players who se this thread and say, omg, i need to post my losses so everybody can laugh at me in other threads.
Either that or we all lie. |
