long live losing streak

[chimpanzepoopdic]

4/8 limit Loose live game with few raises and 4-7 players to most flops. In these games I usually see the flop around %20.

6 p.m. Bought in for $150.
10p.m. Had a decent run, built up to $320. Went to dinner.
10:50 Returned from dinner and proceeded to not win a pot until 4a.m. Not a single chip came my way. Lost the $320 plus another $50 after I rebought for $100.
Finally won a few pots and cashed out $120. at 4:30a.m.

The game was moving a little slow but I figure I saw at least 150 hands during this dry spell. My run of starting hands was above average. I hit several straights, two pair and a set during this time only to have them stomped by the next card. Also had several P.P. including AA, KK, even QQ twice. My opponents with their f-ing runner runner suckouts, river check-raise attempts, and poorly timed slowplays were retarded. Some how I kept my head about me even though I was ready to gut some people!

What are some insane losing streaks that some of you have had while playing your A-game?

6 or 7 hours I guess, but I'm a huge nit.

Are you crying about a live limit losing streak that lasted a few hours of one night? What, is this like the 3rd time you played poker in your life?

[slamhound]

You're a nit. Play more hands.

This isn't a losing streak, it's a losing session.

omg... flashback.

one of my uNL friends always used to say that when he was down for half a buyin.


"wow... these downswings are pretty bad at times. I lost 2,5 BI today"

Ive had losing sessions before where I have dropped a buy in or two, not often but shithappens. Im not the type that expects to win every time out. I just work with what Im given. This session just seemed different due to the above average cards I was recieving and the ammount of hands played without dragging a pot.

I'm just curious as to similiar experiences others have had in live games. What was the duration and were you playing well?
