Default The Moving Up Stakes Curse

I had 14% roi over 500 27 turbo sng's and decided to go ahead and move up to 60's. I 6 table continuasly for 2 hour sets where I get about 20 completed. The first set I run really bad and finish down. The 2nd set I still run [censored] but make enough to bring my 40 sng roi to 5%. This last set I finish early out of anger getting 1 2nd 1 3rd and 14 otm. I swear about half of my otm were bubbles, and many of them I lost with dominating hands.

I saw amazing things happening. Near the end I was all-in with A3 vs. KJ and flop'ed A37, he had to go runner runner K or J. Somehow though, I did not feel secure. I felt I would lose. Turn J River J. I got it all-in with K9 vs. KK and flop'ed trip 9's, leaving him the sole K which came on the river. Granted he was ahead to start with, but the frustration is great!

As far as the level of play, people in the 60's still suck. I saw stupid pushes. Horrible calls. Everyone trys to be super tough post-flop by never folding. Im going to grind in the 27's some and then see if the poker Gods bend me over again in the 60's.

Yeah there is no useful content here, I am just super pissed and had to post.
