try playing 10/20 NL then having your two pair broken by runner runner flush by a stupid azz who went all in trying to bluff. Result ended up being a 2,890 dollar pot

grad school dude? That's the last thing you need
you need to move out and get your own place
learn the value of money
maybe then you won't take it for granted
bad idea, Cruz!

That is close to one of the stories where I opened on the pair called all-in on the flop when it gave me the 3rd and the guy who called needed the turn and river to get his stupid straight.

I wanted to get Hellmuthed so bad!

You are out of control. If your parents didn't let you live with them you would be homeless. Get some help. LEARN SOME DISCIPLINE TOO. You clearly are a compulsive gambler.

i feel ya seattle
 

I feel the same way you do. I am 20 and live at home, and work about 25 hours a week along with going to school. I am fortunate enough that my parents don't make me pay rent or I would be in real trouble. I get paid every friday, and there has been a few weeks where I have lost my entire check the very next day at the track like an idiot and was forced to go without spending any money (cause i didn't have any) for an entire week til the next check. I was atleast smart enough to fill my gas tank up before I went to the track because in my head I knew I was probably gonna lose it all. So you ask if I knew I was gonna do it all why did I do it, because it is an Addiction and is hard to control. I am getting better and better and even if I don't bet, I am still very interested and love the sport of horse racing. Good luck with getting help with the addiction, and I can feel your pain.

well, now there's a mature decision....especially the 'without notice' part.

this is a call for help. lets just keep Jerry in our thoughts and hope he gets it together, all I will say. I have never met him in person, just know he has some demons in his closet he needs to get rid off and it sounds like the ones who love him have stepped in and are putting the clamp on it.
