Does Dr. Tenma need to intervene with Johan's skill gaming problem?

oh man. Sorry bro. Ever since I started playing a lot more WOF I've kept more money in my active WW account to allow for the massive swings that come with playing premiums.

I had a massive deposit problem early this year during a mega tourney when I was playing games I shouldn't have been playing (cough cough SR and freecell)... but thankfully I've more than compensated for that by now.

Nah. I ended up coming out ~$300 ahead through all that, but premiums are just rough.

I might have to play 4 times at $35 each to win the $210 payout, and sometimes I'll have to enter multiple premiums at a time. That being said, I'll have to have $600~$800 invested to make $500~$1000 back, which requires I sometimes deposit a lot.

My bank really screws things up sometimes. At one point, I had 1 entry in a 10-player premium which took second place, with one slot open. An entry costs $35, and the payout for second place is $90. Therefore, I could invest another $35 to secure a profit ($90-$35*2=$20), while having a shot at first place winnings ($210-$35*2=$140 Profit). Unfortunately, my Worldwinner funds were short-- Only $28, and I needed to deposit $10. My paypal was empty, and my bank declined payments from my debit card even though I had $500 sitting in the bank account.

I couldn't deposit. Another player took the last entry, and beat me out.
Two minutes later, I get a call from USBank saying, "Hi, we've noticed some activity from your debit card and want to verify that it's you..", hence why they declined the previous payments. I appreciate their concern, but fuck. Their actions cost me $55~$175 dollars.

[houseofpwncakes]

Agreed. This thread is hysterical.

the "You've been outscored!" right before the deposits top it all off... LOL
