Default I can\'t believe I\'m stooping this low

I've never done this but dammit losing 1200 bets I get to.

2 hands from tonight:

10/20 6 handed

I raise 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] UTG, fold, co 3 bets, button calls, sb folds, bb calls. I call.

Flop Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

bb checks I bet, co(3 better) raises, button folds, bb folds, I 3 bet, co caps, I call.

Turn A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

I bet, button calls.

River T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] I bet button calls and shows A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

Got me. Good one. Great flop play.

10/20 6 handed.

UTG limps, I raise KJS next in, 1 fold, button calls, sb folds bb calls, utg calls.

Flop A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

Turn 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

I bet he raises i call.

River A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

I check he bets I call and he shows A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

I should have bet river yes I messed that up just one of those click before thinking clearly things (which is not a usual problem).

huh.

People can doubt me and I don't blame them. I know I can play this game really well and I know i'm getting f'd every time whether it's a 2 outer here or a big setup where I make really good 2nd bests or I just never have anything. I've plowed through plenty of 300 bet downswings and I've been super good to myself (and bankroll) through this. Even though i'm down 1200 bets I'm not even down 100k yet. I have good game selection (and maybe too good in the sense I seem to find the super spazzes who have no shot long term but short term can destroy you)

If I knew internet poker would be here in a similar form in a couple years I would just not play for a month and travel and relax and all that. We don't have that luxury and the games right now are good so I feel like I should 'suck it up' and play them. My head is always there at the beginning of a session...I can take a number of beats but most sessions these days start out -70 bets within an hour so it's tough and find myself quiting a lot so I don't 'tilt'.

1200 bets. Such an incredible number. Wow. I'm just so glad I did so well for so long and keep a healthy bankroll and play down when stuff is going bad or I'd be in rough shape. I'm sure i'm a touch off my game. I mean how could I not be after this stretch, but really, feelings/pride aside...I'm playing well. I'm sure I flail here and there cause I never have anything, but so would anyone, it's almost impossible not to. I'm playing the best I can with the cards i'm given.

I'm sure I'll bounce back. I did better than ever last time I had a really bad streak. I'll get there, as soon as they stop.

Tried it but got sick of getting it in with KK on J732 board vs KJ and him hitting a jack on the turn. I played like 45k hands of nl in october and am getting better but still am not good at it. I ran really bad at it though too.

Really hard to imagine a winning player can drop 1200bbs.

Fwiw I believe raising 44 UTG 6 handed is almost always a losing play.
