50 BB losing sessions are standard in Vegas mid-limit games, right?

I played 15 hours earlier this week and dropped over 70BB. Even though that was multiple sessions, its really just one painfully long session, right?

Sweet. +65 BBs today.

"50 BB losing sessions are standard in Vegas mid-limit games, right?"

I don't know but I just put i've put up two -60s in my last four sessions in L.A. And before this week started I was lamenting that I'd been breakeven since the beginning of October. Oops.

3 handed 80, I raise the button with K [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]10 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], BB3 bets, flop J [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]9 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]3 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 4 bets go in on the flop, Turn A [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], He bets and i decided that that A just has to be too scary for him to continue and raise he insta 3 bets i call...River Q [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] and BB ends up all in after 8 betting the river...
Couple of hours later. We bumped it up to 1-2 and BB 9 bets all in on the river again while holding AJ. Board looks AJ9xx...AJ vs 99...

Vegas kicks me in the rear, Commerce shows me who my real daddy is.

Hit the nut str8 in a six way pf raised pot on my first hand for a $600 pot. Next set of blinds I catch AA. Three bet to me and I just call in another 6 way pot, capped off, and I c/r 3 bet the flop to clear half the field and take down another $600+ pot.

just wanted to say that its pretty awesome playing live where nobody understands poker.

when we were playing 75 on friday there was a normally tight player that clearly thought DD was awful (he 3bet T5s and showed it down among other things). of course this same player showed down some similarly strange holdings played much more passively/incorrectly and also played many of his good hands in bad/unorthodox ways. btw no this person is not me and this person is not alone in thinking DD is a huge fish at this casino. of course all these people also think roc is a genius (play 1k/2k = superstar) and while i dislike playing him lhe he has pretty obvious never folding/random self destruct for 5BB on turn leaks

its like some of these people have learned enough from somewhere that they can barely survive playing 7+ handed but as soon as it gets shorthanded, especially 5 or less, it is just a hopeless situation bc they are basically playing a completely different poker game than before and it is a game they barely even understand the rules to. it gives me hope that maybe i wont break even for the rest of eternity.

pretty sure this is standard at any casino. a few people think he's a genius and the rest think he's a complete donk.

Could be Dude, it happened in AC this weekend to me on Friday. Got most of it back yesterday.

My aces go cracked three times, cold called by an 8-4 suited, and a better player who called four bets cold with a 10-8 from late position when I was UTG. I forget exactly what happened the third time, but everybody into the pot on the Friday after Thanksgiving....

HOWMANY, its scary that I'm not even positive which guy you are referring to because there are multiple choices, but the funniest part (for me) of the session was for whatever reason we were discussing online poker and my website, so I gave that kid a DC business card and then had to tell him several times throughout the night "no we don't teach that".

i told james while you were in the restroom that you can play big bc you make money from your site to lose playing poker.
