Nobody has any idea how bad it gets when you 12 table and run cold over 12 tables for like 2 hours..when you rarely make hands and don't get any action on them from the fish who have like Jack high when you have top set...through a lot of this I've lost like $250-$300 an hour without getting to showdown because I literally on like every table either got no action on my big hands and could NOT beat a single hand when it got to the river on my flopped monsters that turned into runner runner [censored].

yea cos the rest of us who have played 1M+ hands have no idea what variance is.

You are saying that nobody who has played 1.5 million hands before has experienced the beats you have.

Somebody somewhere is playing the worlds smallest violin for you.

At least you are not down more. Good work minimizing your losses during this downswing!

Nath,

I'm not a losing player if it wasn't for running horribly and I'll never admit it.

I would expect that kind of response..I have the hands and I should be the only judge of them.

It's like you trying to prove to a friend that a movie sucked because somebody you trusted said it sucked but you didn't see it so you have no evidence of how good or bad it is.

nath,

I know you have no reason to help me at all and I don't expect you to or really don't want you to but since you are my #1 hater I would give you every single hand I've ever played and I think this would prove to you that I'm a good player.

I know you don't have the time for this but as my #1 basher for over a year and a half, I think, now I'm just saying with FULL CONFIDENCE that if you saw my hands played from 300k-1.6 million you would eat your words.

[/ QUOTE ]
This is an easy offer for you to make because you know there's literally no way I would comb through 1.3 million hands; I mean, I have a life

Dude, facts are facts. You lost money over a giant sample size and many, many winning players try to tell you what's wrong with your game and your thinking, and you ignore their advice, take it personally, or spout theories about how Stars is rigged.

Do you even believe you have room to improve?

Now, all of your big pots go to showdown, and you're up a significant amount of money. Small and medium pots don't always go to showdown, and account for the fact that you manage to still lose a lot of money. DUCY? Wait, of course not.

Actually, it's kind of like trying to prove you're good at poker even though you constantly lose money, so all the evidence is against you
