if im down a couple of units on the week i adjust the unit-size according to the new BR. its pretty hard to cut down if you wagered 250/game, to say 150, because it takes much more wagers to win the initial amount that you lost, but its part of the game i guess. but sometimes i do play some 2h's on games i usually dont play, or a late game that wasnt on my radar i put a small bet on it. sometimes i dont even watch the games i wagered on, so i check the final score and thats that, without that fucked up feeling of a blown lead or something else. trying to bet with 0 emotion, because thats the main reason people starting chasing and fucking their account up. learned that shit the hard way.
there were times that i could bet 25% of the account on a game, lose it, chase with the rest of it blowing the whole BR in a night and feeling exactly what Bourn described. now i dont have the urge for that type of rush, so those kind of bets are in the past.
