Default heater followed by downswing

does anyone else get this often?

i have gotten it twice in the past month or so.

i will run at like 8pt bb/100 at NL playing a very lag game then all of a sudden I will miss every draw and get every set cracked and lose $50 grand or so (10 buy ins, give or take) and feel like complete [censored]

i will go to sleep and never want to wake up.

i wouldn't mind as much if i went from heater to slight winner to breakeven to slight loser to DOWNSWING but going from huge winner to huge loser is so devasting.

after the initial downswing and depression I will come back and open 12 tables and suddenly get BACK ON MY HEATER like I did tonight and win approx 10 buy ins back!!!!

That´s because you were caught in a time loophole. Knowing you´re opponents hands in advance = +EV.

Wow this EXACT thing just happened to me.

huge heater and in the last 1k hands i've had KK four times and ran into AA twice and once 9d2d flushed me and Q8o hit the straight...

Set of TTT ran into QQ (T 4 A flop all in...turn...Q)

J8s on a Tc 7c 4h hit the flush on the turn and guy makes a 1 card Ac flush on river.

etc...etc...

Sorry about the bitching but yes this just happened to me today...
