finally ran some numbers

and it makes me want to throw up. :o( I'm stuck 38 thousand dollars over the last 2 months. I've dropped down in stakes and switched back to 6 max after watching some DC training vids. I'm just going to nit it up down here until I recover some money so I can move up again. I've run really really bad lately. Stuff like this:

which is depressing. I'll go up a few buyins and feel good about my game then shrug, it all falls apart....

Good and bad news to report as well... went golfing with my brother and two poker buddies which was nice to get away. Unfortunately my wife took my truck on a business trip and backed into a cop car. :o( women can't drive. I swear. I really don't know how they get cheaper insurance and stuff because they are just awful drivers. all of them. She said he was nice and didn't issue a ticket, however they have to file it with FHP so we'll have to file a claim with insurance which means sky high insurance rates. booo to that....

I really don't know what to do

I'm frustrated and disappointed beyond belief. I quit my job with a comfortable bankroll of almost 100K and it's been cut in half. I've reviewed hands, watched training videos, discussed hands with friends, but the cards just aren't going my way. I'm sad, mad, upset, disappointed, all at the same time and it honestly makes me want to cash out everything and just throw in the towel. I just can't win anymore and the life of baller purchases, hundred dollar bar tabs, fancy restaurants, vacations, etc... seem to be coming to an end. I don't know what to do, but if this keeps up, I'll be broke.

stuck 18K last 3 weeks it's atrocious... playing well just getting crapped on. I haven't uploaded any hands yet, but this is a prime example

it's honestly depressing. I tried out 6 max again and got killed. not winning flips when it matters, etc.. I went deep in a few FTOPS events, but lost a 400K flip AK vs 1010 and lost another flip deep in another one. shrug. It's really depressing.... i'm really sad because i've lost like 40% of my bankroll within the last 2-3 months by playing well and just running awful. I've dropped down and I'm still running horrendous. Down like a gazillion. it's so depressing. did I mention it was depressing?

sad emo mover

crushed again, wtf.

so i won like 12K last week and life was sweet, but since last Friday, I'm stuck almost that. :( I lost 7K yesterday and I really don't know how. I know I played a ton of tourneys and didn't cash any of them which obviously sucks. Me and one my horses played the PL Omaha H/L event but busted in the 3rd hour getting it in as a 90% favorite to scoop all of it, but end of getting scooped by a wack gutshot on the river. Just sucks because I feel i'm playing okay, but variance is just kicking me in the nuts and I can't get the bankroll over the hump. I'll win a bunch, then lose it all back to some dumb beats. Here's an example:

Full Tilt Poker $2/$4 No Limit Hold'em - 2 players
The Official DeucesCracked.com Hand History Converter

BB: $484.50
Hero (BTN/SB): $892.50

Pre Flop: Hero is BTN/SB with Q Q
Hero raises to $12, BB raises to $48, Hero raises to $892.50 all in, BB calls $436.50 all in

Flop: ($969.00) K 6 7

Turn: ($969.00) J

River: ($969.00) 3

Final Pot: $969.00
BB shows Kc Qd (a pair of Kings)
Hero shows Qh Qs (a pair of Queens)
BB wins $968.50
(Rake: $0.50)


awesome isn't it? so maybe I'll just quit tourneys for a while as that's what I did last year to increase my roll. I did tilt a little yesterday and ended up requesting a withdrawal. I do that a lot.... Run bad, withdraw so hopefully we'll swing up now. Only time will tell...

stuck 3K already today. booo

yesterday was okay

I went deep in the Stars 50K, but alas, I flip bad so I finished like 30th of 600 for what feels like pennies. At least I haven't busted the account yet! lol I did play some on Bodog yesterday and won around 1700 which was nice. I ended down a little on FT and down on Stars but still up for the day so it was okay. My wife is quitting her job which is pretty cool I guess. She going back to work for my brother which pays more and he's going to cover our insurance too. sweet deal. I really want to win something big. From my 40K downswing, I've recovered 26K of it so my br is in okay shape. Hard Rock Tampa is having another 1100.00 extravaganza tourney with 100K Guar. for 1st and I'll probably play that next month. I need to work on my live tourney game before aruba as I didn't cash the 2 deepstack events at Venetian that I played while in Vegas. Not sure what I'll play today, but hopefully we make more money.

Gl,

Mover

i run so bad on stars

i don't have all the examples, but i cashed for like 2K in the Sunday Warmup, so I figured my luck was changing on Stars, but alas, today was back to the old beats again. I played the 100.00 and lost KK vs. AK, QQ vs JJ and finally this in the 55.

it's honestly depressing how bad I run on that site..... shrug..

standard tourney beat

actually had my first losing session all week. I was down like 3-4K but played a monkey HU on 3 tables and took a ton from him so ended down around 800 or so. I play the 40K like usual and take the normal standard beat.

QQ vs. JJ vs. J2, turn J obv. so gay.

i think i'm up around 13-14K on the week though so that is nice.
