Sounds like somebody is running well. Even the best players in the world go through swings that make them frustrated with this game. You seem to have figured it out though, well done sir.

The truth is that games will always change over time. There will be those who can adjust and profit, and there will be those that were marginally good players and become losers. If you can't figure out which one you are then you are probably the 2007 version of a fish.

I am just tired of all the Poker can't be beat anymore threads. Of course it can, people may just need to adjust their game and focus a little more.

Poker is way harder than it was 2 years ago. I can remember watching 1000 no limit games where every 3-4 hands someone would 3 bet all in preflop with A9o. Please direct me to those games.

you're a moron?

1. not everyone can be good at poker
2. why would you tell the multi tablers to play better when you say they just win you money?
3. You act like you can't have a good session and win 3 BI even when the games are hard
4. It isn't opinion, it's more of a fact that the games have gotten harder.
5. They should still be beatable, but don't freak out on people whose winrate has changed
6. Who is whining?

OK. Find another hobby instead of whining about it at 2+2.

playing against table full of HUD bots = +EV.
HUD bots are by definition not able to get better.

NO. I am saying the good sessions are still there to be had, you just have to adapt your game--OK.

and you asked if I was the moron..lol. Its fact is it..hahaha.

if your winrate has changed that obviously means your game hasn't..eh..that logic stuff..bleh.

LOL. Lots of posts about how poker is so hard now a days. People are quitting the game because its so hard. Cry me a river of tears...bleh.

Become creative in your game or find another hobby.

Phew..I was scared for a whole minute. Now I feel better. I will go slooowwwlly with this--OK. SLOWLY.

Poker is a game of skill--s-k-i-l-l. If your winrate has dropped over long term n # of hands then perhaps you need to focus on your game instead of whining so much--OK. Maybe..now maybe..its possible what you thought was not a leak against A9o all in donks--might be a leak against better opponents...just a maybe--OK...bleh.

As one of those "hud bots" let me say a hud bot by playing 7x more poker and seeing 7x more situations then you is going to become more skillfull than you, sorry to burst your bubble. Also if amount of leaks of other players go down only so much an edge your skill can give you. Enjoy life in your hole where you play 200 hands a day and have yet to experience a swing....
