Re: Worst run of cards ever? 4/8Live
I've easily gone 4-6 hours without winning a hand on several occasions.

Re: Worst run of cards ever? 4/8Live
Sounds like my last 2 months of live play. I think there are a few positives I try and remond myslef of from card dead sessions like these: Knowing that I have a good knowledge of the game, Good starting hand selections, Knowing that I have Discipline & Patience, I'm smart enough not to cold call raises with marg starting hands, I'm not spewing away money needlessly, recognizing various styles of others play & getting in playing valuable playing experience. I find that now that I have had so many card dead sessions in the last 2 months that my patience has gotten even stronger. It does suck having to fold for 2-3 hours straight but this is my style. Sounds like yours as well. And finally, look at the others rebuying all the time and look at all the money you could have been pissing away if you played like the bad players do.

This is nothing. I once spent nearly 4 hours in the Foxwoods 20/40 without seeing a flop. I played catch with the dealer and stole a few blind. About the 2nd hour I decided the poker gods were testing me, I was right. I left stuck 15BBs and still consider the session a turning point of my poker career. In fact, it's my biggest "win".

Went a whole weekend in your town CJ without seeing AA once in over 30 hours of play. When we sign up for SSHE freshman orientation 101 we should be told that we will be sentenced to (hours/days/weeks/months) - your choice of fill in - of being dealt unmentionable and unplayable hands PF.
Damn it has been cold in LA in February! Down 100BB overall. And that includes the 1 and 1/2 hr. heater at O/8 that was +80BB!! So a brief heat wave can restore order in hurry, too. |

If your worst run of cards ever is only 2 and a half hours, its not the worst run of cards ever.

Played for 2 1/2 hours last night at Bellagio. I saw exactly one river, and that was a checkdown [/ QUOTE ] Worst run? Far from it. This seems routine to me. b |

Re: Worst run of cards ever? 4/8Live
So far it has been 3 hours of folding non stop for me. I tell you it can be mentally exhausting at times to play this way, esp when you see the same player with fins winning pot after pot with trash. I finally got an ipod last week and this has helped me immensely with the boredom that comes at times like these.

its so much more fun being a lagtard. [/ QUOTE ] I agree, but when you've folded like 50 hands in a row, do you really want to break the streak with J8sooted. There probably is no way that I could do it now. |
