I cant belive it.... today I fall out from bankrollmob leaderboard on pokerstars.... 4 days befor it will end... Thats a realy bummer, because this days I cant play freeroll because I have to study a lot... having exams these days... Also I cripled my pokerstars last night because I was down few buy ins before, and yesterday I decided to go on bigger blinds to make money back... which was going realy good until late in the night when I lose with AQ suited flop Q high against KK, and that put me on tilt so I lose a few buy ins on that higher level, and now my bankroll is cripled...

Same thing happened me couple of weeks ago. My bankroll was crippled. I have big unlucky series, and had lost my mind. But no problem. Some days without poker. Keep calm a little, and try it again. This was helped me. Where are you from? I was born in Senta. Keep calm, and good luck!

hmm happens to me all the time and chasing loses will only bring your down fall and the better you can manage your tilt the better you would be able to succeed and not lose money and therefore you would make money instead of losing a few bankroll with tilt and so on, anyway this sucks so take a break and come back, poker will always be here and you can have fun during your break and come back refresh and ready to crush!

If you cant afford the higher levels you simply dont change. And that the reason for it. If the whole thing goes wrong again, you are facing a big disaster. You will need to start grinding again in you level getting your chips back. If the reason you failed for the moment in the leaderboard is your studies, it is something that it shouldnt give you a hard time thinking of it. It is your studies first at this point and then all the rest

Yes, I heard Kraljevo. I am Vojvodjanin. But Hungarian, and can understand and speak a little Serbian language.
------------ By the way. Today I registered one the PokerStars 5 FPP tournament. This was satellite to one 2000 dollars freeroll. 619 players, award was 61 tickets. 73 players was remaining. I had 4500 bucks, Big Blind was 2000. I was the Big blind, and get A,4s the opponent raise. I went all in. (No better choice, and only had 2 BB, this was my last chance). Opponent has J,J. Flop and turn get two 4-s. Hallelujah... I had 95,5 %, opponent had 4,5%. And the river.......J..... This is poker, next time will be better.

Yes this is very hard to take so near of the last day of this leaderboard. You are only 24 so you have all the time to get back to poker so your decision to put your study first is very good and i wish you good luck in your comings exams.

Well if you are in the top 200 you can score big in the final tournament taking place after each leader board has finished. So nothing is over yet. You can finish last in the board and then win the big one Good luck with your next games.

If I understood your post correctly you dropped out of the Bankroll mob leaderboard just before it ended. That is very unfortunate, but this is the problem with leaderboards or leagues: you always have to participate or you will not make it.
