    Default sigh....

    Same old shit.

    Multiply this graph by about 20 and you get my year and every single Saturday fucking night I've played in months.

    Fucking sick of it. I seriously don't think anyone can run as bad as I do.

    Graph misses off the first bit for some reason where this hand happened:

    $0.5/$1 No Limit Holdem
    PartyPoker
    4 players
    Converted at weaktight.com

    Stacks:
    CO ($19.00)
    Hero ($99.50)
    SB ($107.15)
    BB ($236.10)

    Pre-flop: ($1.50, 4 players) Hero is BTN
    CO calls $1, Hero raises to $4, 1 fold, BB calls $3, CO calls $3

    Flop: ($12.50, 3 players)
    BB bets $5, CO folds, Hero raises to $21, BB calls $16

    Turn: ($54.50, 2 players)
    BB bets $211.10, Hero calls $74.50

    River: ($340.10, 2 players)

    Final Pot: $340.10
    Hero shows:
    BB shows:

    BB wins $338.10 ( won +$102.00 )
    CO lost -$4.00
    Hero lost -$99.50

    it happens. just relax and believe in your long term results. i'm pretty sure you're doing well over the long haul. we just have to take the rough times. i'm currently in a rough streak but as long as you play well i think you can stay even when you take brutal beats. just keep your head up and keep chopping away. you have to remember all the money you already won from poker.

    lol that was a long time ago! I don't get to put alot of hours in with other commitments so I'm down about 10-15 buyins over the last 6 months. It's so sickening and the shitty ongame software doesn't help!

    ok. i've never been down 10-15 buyins, so you're probably playing bad. that's all i can say. like you're the super moderator, but what am i supposed to say to your response. you're obviously pissed off and losing more than you should be. they aren't all bad beats. worst swing i've taken is 7k (7 buy-ins). usually people who have 10 buy-in swings go on tilt. just reflect.

    Well from what I've been told it's pretty standard, especially playing 5max.

    Obviously there are spots I've played bad but in general I'm playing 10x as good as I was at 50nl, just not getting anywhere. And I'm usually very good at stopping before I tilt, which I was never good at when I played 50nl. Confuses me greatly!

    I've toned down my cbetting a bit recently but I still watch these CR vids when they say "pretty standard spot to cbet, I'll take it down most of the time" yet I probably take it down 1/100th of the time! wtf!?!?!

    But I dunno, if there's a special skill to winning when 19:1 favourite, I probably don't have it.

    I've lost 7 buy ins once in a row. It starts like this: 5 buy ins of bad beats, then 2 buy ins of mixed tilt + bad play.

    10-15 buyins is super standard, my biggest is in the area of 40ish....

    even 7 in one session is not that bad
