So i got my bonus from full tilt(which is great by the way) and got str8 to the tables. Took all my bankroll to a heads up cash table 0.25/0.50. First hand KJ suited, me bb. guy limps, i raise to 3.50, he calls. Flop= 5 8 K i check, he bets $2 i raise him for 5, he calls. Now im like hmm, whats happening. Turn J . Yes, i bet $14, he calls. River= 5 he pushes all in, yes , got him.
No, he shows 4, 5, and i lose my stack to a donkey. That's how not to spend your bankroll

I guess he knows its bad bankrollmanagment as the thread is how not to spend bankroll. So my question would be then why do it?, its like saying a poke in the eye is going to hurt but ill do it anyway a whole 1 hand, well done!! anouther 10 hands left to play GL.

First, dont use a one buy-in bankrollmanagement. It is an invitation for desaster.
The hand itself is really strangly played. Your raise preflop is to huge. The checkraise on the flop is not good, and its amount is to low. At the turn he should have folded.
