lets keep in mind im not talking about myself here. i know im a moron. i lose my $$$ in the bcp casino every week. if id stay away from there id be fine and have a decent BR to play a few games daily. go look at the market n check the stake threads. i dont lose a ton for stakers.
now on to the point. pokerowned has a few decent players around but every single one of them is a degen player. ive watched ppl win 30-120$ in a given night and 2 days later theyre broke???? how do you do that unless youre in the casino like me, or losing sportsbetting for ridiculous amounts. if you are just playing poker day after day then you need to seriously consider quitting the game.
with bcp having a ton ofr 3 hour late reg tourneys a person should be in 1-3 games a day on a normal basis, if theyre any good, because theyll be going deep in the tourney or tourneys theyre playing. if you lose 80-100 a day on tourneys only and min cash 1 you are not doing very well.
idk i guess im just wondering how a see ppl winning here n there n 2 days later theyve gone broke and are looking for stakes.

I agree with you, there are a lot of degens here that do bink a nice win and then are broke the next day. On the other hand there are also a lot of people with solid rolls on here who are able to maintain them.

I am sure the guys here are no where near as bad a degen as some on the live tourny circuit. On several occassions I have seen people win in excess of $30K, then by the next day, no longer have enough for the next days buyin. Some end up making themselves give the money won to others (for holding), and make them promise not to give it to them no matter how hard they ask for it back. The saddest was when this guy who struggled for the longest time, always having to beg for buyins, food, lodging, won over 30K, and he lost it all in 1 fucking night of debauchery.

I'm good outside of sports betting. I always like to go for the longshot parlays and the big win. I'm a winning poker player and I'm pretty decent on round robin parlays in sports betting, yet I tend to go outside my bankroll often.

a few degens here but not as many as you guys are thinking..i mean if a guy wins 20 bucks and loose it, so what just start all over, but if a guy wins 20 and then come in chat and constant beg to loose another 20 or 100 or so and continue the cycle..then maybe he has a serious problem..

if a person is extremely passionate and wants to get very good at playing poker then why should that person consider quitting the game if they play every single day? i don't quite follow you on that statement.
fwiw, i know for a fact that not literally everyone on PO is broke. for example, johnny deep stacks is killing it and atm it looks like he has a $200 BR.
