    Holy shit man.
    I think that you started losing, then went on serious tilt. Spewed your BR away in just a few very high stakes games.
    Step away for now. When you are back, do better BR mgmt and do not risk more than 5% of your BR in any given session.

    Hang tough buddy.

    Hmm, sorry if that was a serious post and my reply offended in any way. I took it for either lighthearted or a joke. If not...wow, $85k. That sucks .

    What I find interesting is that just before the huge slide, player was approx 10k down and got almost back to even, you can just picture some mega-tilt as they start slipping back down again and go hunting for that one big win to get them back to even.

    Anyhow, this is for "thenut21." Apparently, he had a big win in a MTT recently, and then blew it all in a few days playing over his head in 5k headsup sng's. So let this be a BR lesson for all you kids out there. Just because you score a big one and have the roll to play a certain stake, doesn't mean you can/ have to play there. Stay where you're comfortable.

    Lmao, when I have time, I play mostly 6.50's - two table turbos, with an occasional $16 thrown in. It's gonna take me a LONG LONG time to lose 85k (I hope!!)
