These kinds of BS happening at an ALARMING RATE..
Had worst month in my poker life during July, and it continues.
This is definition of running bad..

Wow, K10 just beat my AA on the river just now as I'm typing this.
I might have to move to Party.

If the flop were just 3-8-9, would you be as mad? Or is it just the psychological effect of the runner-runner full house.

I saw a .200 hitting pitcher named Zach Duke get a base hit today. Same thing, really. Still sucks, but that's poker. Helps to think about it that way.

I've been hanging tough even though I've been running extremely bad.

your comments were helpful.. because earlier, my 77 all in was beat by 56os.. and I didn't tilt much because he flopped two pair. This is something that's normal nowadays.

I think having account in both Party and Stars might be a good idea.
I think I can eliminate some of the "bad-runs" if I switch sites.. any ideas?

I downloaded and am trying to get used to its interface, but it's so damn confusing at this moment. Any opinions regarding Party SnG's?

One more thing is that this is happening at an alarming rate.
I'm running at 5% ROI for past month and a half.. and I used to be at around 30% (pretty consistent) for past 6 months.

I'll just grind it out..

Raise more PF.

you cant "eliminate some of the bad runs" because running poorly today means nothing about predicitng tomarrow. But it may help with the psychological aspect of the game and help you play better.

Just so you know, Party is rigged also.

KRE8R probably has about seventy college funds in his NL5 roll.

and I know PokerRoom (3rd biggest overall) is TOTALLY RIGGED.
so I'm sticking to Pokerstars, although Party's Step SnG really intrigues me..

click register...pay the buy in,

close pokerstars.

You got a better chance that way playing on that riggered site.
