Message: [QUOTE="NeverTooLate, post: 6400880, member: 475679"] Long time since the last post. I didn't play almost any poker at all for 3 months, excluding maybe 2-4 short sessions. I had a mania, and I ended up in a hospital for a couple days to cool off my brain and get medications. Turns out I have bipolar disorder which kinda fits al my "symptoms" perfectly. Also it explains a bit why my poker career has been somewhat of a struggle comparing to the "talent" / "skillset" I think I have. I might write more about the bipolar thing later on. Lately I have been feeling down or depressed which is kinds of standard after the mania and getting used to the bipolar meds also "numbs" the highs so evertything feels kind of bleak. I bought ah house some time ago and now my bankroll is microscopic, my entire liferoll is aroud 1,5k, so I should eat and pay bills and play poker with this. I started grinding again 5 days ago, I doubled my BR in 3 days, then punted most in cash games, then I played a snday session of breakeven, and ran a stack in plo5 to 2,2k from like 200d. Well we all knwo what happened then 2 hands and I left the table with 0usd. Today I counted my bankroll, and I had still little over 300€left from 600€, that I had when I started 5-6 days ago, so not that bad after all. So I have some monay obv left in the bank and I deporited 500 to have as my poker br, my aim was to not reload, kinda make it clear to me that if I mess up I will just go down to like 1d games if necessary, the bounceback comes fast regardless of the abi if the skill is there. I have been running around 20bb/100 for 10k hands so game is ok, could do a ton better still, with some clear mistakes going on here and there. Anyway, I made this post to get some motivation to stay on the right track on these crucial times where brm and solid poker would be welcomed! [/QUOTE]
