From that point, took a break, yadda yadda, got it up to 100$. Played a tourney, finish 4th, fot 270$. Cashed out 200.

After that was left 160$. Again, people will again try to rationolize that this yadda yadda, variance, yadda yadda losing streak, cold deck situations, whatever crap exists in books, poker terms, whatever and I HAVE PROOF THAT IT'S BAD BEATS AGAIN THAT RUINED 75% OF MY ROLL the rest was tilting, not good focus, again, these fucking streaks of bad beats over and over resulting to tilt. Now, I got 13$ in the account. So basically, im 200$ over. But fucking fuck im not going to reload anything anymore.

This is mental exhaustness. Bad beat, after bad beat, after bad beat, after bad beat, then you tilt. After you get cold deck situations in the such:

BB, Ad8d, limp. Flop As-8s-Kd. I check, button min bets, I min raise, he minraise, i min raise, he min raise, I call. Turn 8. I shove all in, he call, flips over KK. You were doomed to lose your chips anyways. Top 2 pairs, guy has a set. You flop a str8, guy hits runner runner full house.
You can't do anything.

So before you say you are a donk, take my exemple. There is a lot more luck in poker that people think. When you are all in with the best hand, 80% favorite or more, has long has the other has outs, you can never be certain of winning.

I clearly know the limits I dominate. But you can't do ANYTHING when this type of shit happens. So you should really take out what's left in your roll, cuz it AINT GONNA CHANGE.

Everybody at the poker table thinks he's better than the 8 others. Whenever you play good, always remember that what goes up must come down. Except for the real gifted ones, like real gifted blackjack players, you either will break even or win a little. The rest is a fantasy the media is trying to sell.

How many books you read, maybe 10 ? Still, where you at ? Even if you understand the game and shit, others understand the game too.

anyway, if you want, pm me we'll msn chat
That is why the whole idea of long-term equity value makes professionals and winning players what they are. It's not that they're "gifted" to have better luck than others, that's just what losing players say to make themself feel better. It actually makes you worse because you are self-validating your own bad play, and will continue to play badly, whining about bad luck forever. Maybe you should re-read sklansky's theory of poker to truly understand how to play for long term gain. Bankroll management is very important as well. Please mr_henley don't listen to his frustrated rant, emotions are the bane of poker.
