Nimvin,
Those remarks are for limit grinders. Not NL.
Even a 30% chance of losing 1/3 of your bankroll is too great.
Remember, there are bank roll requirements for a reason. You are busting them up right now.
If you have a 500bb BR and triple up at limit, that still is only a small protion of your bankroll, and won't hurt you one way or the other (and you can't lose it all in one hand anyway).

Too much of my bankroll on the line at this table. I am not much of a NL player to begin with, so I would be afraid of losing. I don't care if I have the wrong mindset here. I would be happy with the money I made and get the hell off the table. I wouldn't join another table considering I suck at poker.

I am just saying you have obviously played well to this point (assumption on my part, it could be variance  ) and that people are scared of you and will play predictably against you. |
You may be right... but lets put it in another form...
Would you play a 500$ SNG with 1500$ bankroll even if you know you are the best player around? Lets say you are sure to make top 5!
KJ

I while ago I was playing .10-.25 fulll time and i noticed an ultra fish on my buddy list sit down @ a .5-1 games. so severly underrolled, I sat down w/ him @ a 4 handed game. The fish left about 10 hands in. 5 hands later I ended up winning a 100$ pot and left.

If you want to keep playing, there's nothing wrong with joining a different table. Of course, taking a break is fine too. Quit/Celebrate and Join a different table are essentially the same choice.

Yeah it was fucking sweet.
I thought it was 74s though? You wouldn't be getting the nutter butter reverse implied odds to make that kind of move unless it was t33h suited.
but still it was a very nice hand...

apparently it passed over everyone so far. gder won a 38bb pot on 4/9/06 and I asked why he was posting on 3/15/06, not why he was posting it here and not in the glory corner.
If I could time travel I would go back and bet on Tyson vs. Douglas and every other underdog win that I could think of for the last decade, screw posting on poker forums, even if you guys are kinda kewl. (only kinda )
