my month is probably worse than anyone's in this thread I'm guessing, at least from a percentage of good size bankroll lost, but probably even $$. kill me.

live poker for the last two days didn't go well either, example, 4 way all in on 752 rainbow flop, i have 75o and am against 72o, 52o, and 68o. turn 2

anything can happen. i have lost at almost every different limit/game I have played this month, and the highest limit I have played I had over 30 buyins for. Yes, some/quite a bit of this is due to bad play, but I'm pretty much running worse than I thought it was possible to run.

It's not just like I get it all in and get unlucky, its like, imagine if when you assigned a range for a player's hand, they always had the best possible hand in that range, and when they make a bet that is either the nuts or air, its always the nuts, and imagine a table full of maniacs check folding the first time you catch even a piece of the board, imagine your opponents good hands and bluffs coming with perfect timing, and yours are the worst timing ever, imagine sitting at a HU table, a short stack comes in and you double him up 5 times when you're either a favourite or at worst 60/40, imagine just sitting there playing 6 tables full of stations and not seeing better than AJo for eternities. imagine finding a super overagressive donkey and picking up no hands against him, resorting to playing back at him and he wakes up with a monster, imagine every time you make a mistake in a hand you get punished for the most amount of money possible, imagine firing up 4 tournaments and bubbling all 4. imagine coolers, setups, bad beats, tilt, using fake tilt to get people to look you up light and them sucking out anyway. imagine moving in with a monster draw, getting called by bottom pair and missing, seemingly every time. imagine every possible thing going wrong every session every day for 40 days in a row. imagine waking up every day feeling like you can start the comeback today, winning to start your session, and getting crushed at the end of it and not being able to sleep. remember your biggest losing session ever, then imagine having 6 bigger losses in a span of 3 weeks. then to cap it off, imagine all this happening just as the games are the worst they have ever been since the start of the poker boom. also, if you want to throw it in there, think about this coming at exactly the time when you are deciding whether to give up school which you hate and play poker full time, which you really want to do. Imagine for the first time revealing your income to family members and friends over the Christmas break, feeling proud at how impressed everyone is, then losing an amount I can't even bear to tell those people about. Imagine going to play live because live poker is like printing money and people are so bad and you just want to book a decent win, and getting raped. end rant.
