I have officially decided that 50NL is 100% absolutely unbeatable. 15.5 buy-in downswing in less than 5000 hands. The last time I worked my way up to this level the resulting downswing knocked my roll from $1500 to $200. I can't win.

I feel your pain. After beating 50NL for over 100k hands, I'm on the sickest [censored] downswing ever. I think it's somewhere around 25 buy-ins over about 25k hands. Luckily I'm overrolled for 50NL, but man, this has been sick. The sad part is (and isn't this always the case), I feel like I'm playing my best poker ever. I rarely tilt, I've cut down on my # of tables to make better reads, etc.

Sometimes luck just isn't on your side (for extended periods of time, I suppose) As I write this, I just lost another buy-in. Full house over full house on the river. [censored].

What sucks is that I would like to be able to play my best poker. Unfortunately 90% of my game this weekend is get usable cards, raise preflop, completely miss flop, c-bet, get called/raised/check-raised, fold. Then the only times I get a usable hand it doesn't hold up. I just spent 45 minutes at a table HU waiting for others to arrive against some wannabe LAG called jagga_80 or some crap like that while he stole my blinds 80% of the time as I get dealt an unending stream of crap like 63o, 82o, J3s, etc. The times I had something that saw a flop it was like K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] on a 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] facing a guy who raises or check-raises a c-bet 90% of the time. I was honestly considering just limping in with every single hand and calling his inevitable raise with only the good ones.

I know this might sound strange, but according to my PT, KK is my biggest LOSER since September 20th LOL... can you believe that? Seems like lately every time I try to smooth call a guy's 3 bet preflop with KK an A hits the flop... or the flop is like QJx and they shove me all in and I figure I'm behind against a better set/pair. :S
