Are you still trying to talk people into calling your AA pushes?

You need to cut that [censored] out.

He shouldn't call reraises with ATo even if he CAN stack KK when he flops an ace.

seriously dude most of these are not beats. the first 2 are legit beats, T3 vs T4 was a beat, but none of the others really count.


QQ vs As4s: he had 12 outs on the flop; if you're calling this a bad beat then i can rattle off 2 dozen from the past week. and i get dealt 25 hands/hour.

AhTh vs Ad4d: the obvious draw hit, you can find a fold.

TT vs A2: he flopped a wheel, you got your money in drawing nearly dead.

KK vs ATo: ugly. your flop call was too...what's the word i'm looking for...aggressive.

77 vs 99: he was never behind.

JT vs KJ: he was never behind.

42s vs Q9o: again, he was never behind. i notice a trend here...

99 vs 9h5h: semi-beat. his preflop call was terrible but on the flop he's not much of a dog.

77 vs AQo: you got beat by another flush draw. oh no you run so bad.


recap: villains hit a few flushes on you, the rest you got money in bad. where are the 5-, 4- and 3-outers? if you choose to believe your downswing is due to running bad rather than playing bad, then you SHOULD quit poker forever.

Mike,

I'm under no illusions about how I've been playing. But if you think maniacs constantly flopping straights, NFD, and TP+FD in raised and reraised pots against your overpairs when they are consistently dominated and then never missing their draws is not running bad, maybe YOU need to rethink things.

TWP, sorry to hear about this. I respect your play even though we have disagreed on a few hands before. Like other have said I've been in your shoes before. I'm currently just getting out of a 100K break even stretch. It makes it so much harder when there are threads in MSNL where everyone says they always run at 5 ptbb/100. My advice is to stick in there and maybe even move down to 1/2 NL for a short time; atleast to get your confidence back.
