Downswings come as Upswings do... If you have been a winner in the past, you'll find yourself playing more agressive and probably you'll think that you are invincible.
Of course, playing agressive in a downswing period won't help you to keep a BRM as it has to be...

| Sahamies problem lasts for a while now, we just have to make a little research about what came on the news about him during the last couple of years to reach this conclusion. I still believe that, when he says he has no money, he means he has no bankroll that allows him to continue playing the levels he used to. Assuming he is sick is a good beginning for him, and knowing now that he is playing lower stakes is also good, because that may also mean he is trying to manage the bankroll. This can only turn into a major problem if, in fact, instead of being managing his bankroll, he is actually spending the last money he has. If this is what’s happening, it’s very sad to watch this happening to someone who once was a star and that, most probably, will commit arakiri in what matters to his poker career. Hope he manages to get out of the hole, even if he doesn’t come back to play higher again. The health is more important than the wealth.

If all is ok ,with the experience he got ,he should easely be able to find him a good staker and work from there on to get back where he was once...

He needs a loan?
of course hes a so talented player but I'm not sure hes a good player or not caz traking websites showed his results and those are not good.

| now he should play BM freerolls.

| maybe he just has a sore foot- that's why he feels sick...lol- as far as the "no money" comment goes- i doubt this is true, even if the guy has a reputation of one who doesn't care for bankroll management a lot, i still think he has some cash left...at least when full tilt pays him back he will get back to nosebleed tables

| Wow what a way to go out win so much then lose it even faster he should have stoped playing at the start of the yr i dont feel sorry for him these things happen all the time and its good to see it happens to the pros to i i was him i would have left pokerstars after winning that and never come back
|
| doomdy | 18/05/2012 07:48:23 GMT |
Well to be honest, this had to happen sooner or later, he has no bankrollmanagement so its kinda it happens just time tells when it happens.
I dont think he is an example for the poker industry allthough i like him at times.
Hope he can climb back.

That seems a pretty reasonable solution for him, but there’s a big question there:
Who would be available to lend money to a sick gambler? That money would only appear after he was cured. How long will it take till he cures himself? And how can he proof he is in fact cured?
If, till now, he only spent his own money, better that way, at least he has no debts, just hope he can get some help to solve the problem…

It shouldn't come as big surprise. After all we all know what his lifestyle are: getting drunk and gambling.
Imo he doesn't have what it takes to be a pro poker player. It's only 10% talent and 90% hard work and discipline.

i don't know that much about him, but yeah I get that impression of him.
there's no sorrow there.
if you're gonna make a tonne of money and get wasted and gamble with no brm then you're destined to go broke.

| jomull57 | 21/05/2012 18:56:21 GMT |
| how much did he win in his poker life i would love to play big stakes even if it wasn't my cash and i couldn't keep any winnings . dont think i would win any thing

| It must be hard to have all that money to be able to fritter it away without any great worry. What happened to Bank Roll MAnagement ? or do high rolling players forget about it?

there's plenty degenerate poker players that are very good.
they can't stop gambling and playing = loss after loss
no pity for them

| Proably no money on stars,just has 2 digg into another pot of gold,sick ofthese 'broke' storys he saat with 100k over couple tables 2 hours bk lol
|
| Macubaas | 22/05/2012 03:25:04 GMT |
I think people tend to believe them because he also spends a lot on parties, cars, trips, etc...
Even on stars you need to remember that last year he was the biggest winner there

| kinogomes | 23/05/2012 10:54:21 GMT |
| Iam pretty sure he have lot of money, but he must owes lots of money too. He makes a really expensive way of life too, money for him must be like rollercoast!!!!

| Hello, I'm sure Ilari Sahamies is a world class player but unfortunately bankrol management is a fault of many player myself first .....
|
| uhhcallmi | 31/05/2012 06:04:55 GMT |
i don't have money left.....on him ???
all ,money at his bank or pokeraccounts???
lol,,this guy is joking with us all....a proven winner can't go broke ,,or he must have lost his sight the other day...
if u lose half ur bankroll( i mean the big bankrolls these guys have),then its time to change plans and get back to explecit tournament poker ,away from cashtables...
at least that's my opinion...i know a very profitable player..he never ever plays cash ..online..
but more then 3.5 $ million in tourn. winnings.. as mentioned before in other thread of mine ,,
his name is uhhmee..(amy barer-canada)
a guy like ilari ,,should be at least have enough knowlegde of the game to shift from cash to tournament play when his bankroll urges him to do so...
ofcourse he knows his motives best....

| Bad side of crazy, aggresive style of poker!
|
| damosk | 31/05/2012 19:58:21 GMT |
| I'm gutted for him!!!!! All the pros go on at newcomers about how important bank roll management is and then you get someone like this blow it all. Maybe there is some hidden justice somewhere!
