Last month and a half..

Queens and Kings in the red (and thats not from calling shoves on A flop or osmething) [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] . Im up about 1800 at 100NL, but down like 1500 at 200NL over 18k hands. Some tilt involved too here, but I just cant catch a break, I have days where I play perfect poker, and ocasionally i play some bad poker.

And i dont have alot steaming sessions neither, usually i just quit if i feel i really start tilting, Im not the kinda guy starts openshoving K4o or something.

Iv tightened up the last 25k hands, like 24/19, but it went even worse. I even go trhough my entire database every session looking up the small and big pots i lost and won seeing if i did something wrong..

Only upside here is that my game improved alot.

ps: are there are any regs murdering the game, and willing to look through a few HH's of me?

Play less, take more breaks for a while and see how that goes. A couple of years ago I cut down, now I play half as much as I used to, but it put things in better perspective and my results improved quite a bit in the process.

Some people are cut out for grinding all day long, others should quit poker entirely. You might just be one of those guys like me who doesn't have more than 8-10 hours a week for it.

ill play better if i make long sessions, the first couple 100 hands usually suck but then i play my A game for 3-4 hours.

i've heard of good players having 50k hand breakeven streaks, so as fun as it is to be like "Lol u suk at pokars", it might not be the case. follow your heart

to be honest, for the most part you have heard of bad players who say they are good.
