How to manage a Heater.

As most of you know I dont really like to play too big online for diverse reasons.  But I'm on a sick heater lately.  Not luckboxing, genuinely getting it in way in front and holding up a significant amount of the time.  My BR has become pretty respectable.  I'm doing REALLY well live also.

I have many faults as a player, one of which being ego (take that however you like).  But I've  grossed more in the last 2 months at poker and decent value roulette/BJ than in the 6 or so months prior.  Obviously the heater will cool off. 

I do tend to steam/Tilt badly (another critical flaw).  Any tips?  Am currently siphoning off 30% of winnings on a weekly basis.  Thats enough insurance against going broke online right?

    some people tend to "positive tilt" when going on such a good run.

    they start to think they are invincible and start calling light etc
    so just keep playing your normal(winning) game.

    tip no2 LEAVE THE ROULETTE AND BLACJACK ALONE!

    God you guys have no fricking idea.  Literally between the OP and this one I'm doing now I lost £1100 on BJ.  Someone up there smiled at me and went on a little run and finished out getting the £1100 back plus £10.  But this is what I do.  My housemate is looking into blocking access to Vegas and I think I'll follow suit.  It just gets crazy.

    You get my PM Pod?

    Luckbox donut :)  (friends mods).  What he's not telling you is that his account here went down to less than £6 before he won it back.

    Learn a lesson dude.

    thats what i mean..............

    not long ago i was on another site betf.... and had £20 on bj i spun that up to £100 and upped stakes within 30 mins i was playing for £300 a hand and kept winning three in a row then losing one...and so on.

    i cashed out with £3.500 after about an hour.
    i then did the same the next night,i was up to £3k and didnt want to stop and ended losing £2k so came off with £1.5k.

    i have never played since (apart from the odd £20 in live casino's) why?
    because i know it was just luck and i will never repeat that run....

    Not cool love2h8poker

    My introduction  to blackjack was similar, but on a much smaller scale Dave.  Used to play while waiting for Live MTT to start.  First time I played I ran £10 up to about £600.  Heck this is easy..... then similar experience to you.  Without your disipline.

    I have been running godlike at roulette for a few months now, to the point where I'm playing spins between hands in live MTT's.  But I do know that is what it is, a run.  But you have to play the run.  But Ihave been putting my self in compulsive bad spots br wise that I'd be much happier if i didnt.

    If enough decent guys like you keep hammering the message i may pay attention in the end.  Not you tho Iluv2h8, just wrong felt boy.
