I play at $1/2 or $2/4 and past week i had 1.1BB/100hands profit, after 8000 hands at $2/4. Now I am 141 BB down.

Simply... I don´t know, how good players playing against ultra lucky maniac!They call anything and catch miracle, after miracle. Yesterday, one of them catch four of kind three times in one hour, twice against my three aces and full house.

One of my hand: $2/4

I have TT at CO, folded to me, I raise, button folded, SB maniac cold call, BB fold.

Flop T,2,K rainbow ...nice

I bet, Maniac raise..(this is his standart bluff play, his stats are 78/5/ and he almost always bet or raise flop.)
I CALL ... i want his bet on Turn.If i raise he check in turn.

Turn is 6

I check, maniac BET, I raise, he reraise ... uups ... he had KK..???? I call

River 4

I check, he bet, I call.

Maniac had 35o for a straight.



I have around 2000 hands with that player.He have profit 24 BB/100hands

IF you are new, then you don't have enough hands to make use of the stats. just stick to reviewing hands one at a time using the free trial version or pokergrader, and read this forum.

I'm still learning 2/4, but I'm about at 1bb/100 now. At 350 hands per hour (multi-tabling), that's $14/hour. Not great, but at least it's in the green for the last two months. It took me around 40k hands to make the jump from a winning 0.50/1 player to a winning 2/4 player.

BTW 2BB/100 is an amazing pace for a begginer, don't expect this right away especially playing online. Poker is all about long term trends not short term results; you'll need tens of thousands of hands to determine your winrate.

I thought threads like this were saved for the god awful general poker forum.

You so badly misunderstand poker, it's not funny. This kind of attitude is why you lose. Try taking some responsibility for your bad play, that way you can improve. You won't get better if you continually blame 'luck' instead of your own faults.

I'm locking this thread because I don't see anything good coming out of it.
