Default I just can\'t take it any more, with graph.

Just a bad beat rant, nothing to see here. Move along.

WTSD 23.2%
W$SD 34.5%


I fully realize that my opponent's play is why I can make money playing poker, but when they pull through all day long. . .I've never understood people breaking things, but I found myself looking for something I could smash that I wouldn't mind losing. Really couldn't think of anything, maybe I need to get a punching bag.

This is my last hand. No waiting for blinds coming around, just shut it down

Jman held a tournament where the winner and second place won a fee hours of coaching. Part of it was we had to change our avatar on here and Stars to his pic for 3 months. I feel pretty stupid having the avatar of some random pro, but I'm a man of my word, so it stays for 3 months. But not a day longer.

You had to change the avatar to play in the tournament.

That's the kicker. I didn't win. It was a heads up pot limit tourney and I went out in the third round. What's funny, is that with Jman playing so many levels about what I play, I think the coaching would largely be wasted on my due to my grade school understanding of NL, but it was too good an opportunity to pass up.

I know the feeling. Dropped 4 buyins last night in about 45 minutes at NL50 to some 60/20 morons hitting runner/runner straights and flushes.

Been like that for past 3 nights. So last night after throwing my laptop across the floor, said screw it and sat with my whole roll on some NL200 tables.

Wish I had the hand history of basically the first hand I played at one of the NL200 tables where I flopped a set and ended up all in on turn with a guy with a flush draw, which of course came in for him on the river. Bye bye $400 pot.

Almost said screw it and came on here to ask if anyone wanted to flip for the last of my roll. Think I need to take a couple days off. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Thank you Capt. Obvious. I don't think I said anywhere that all my loses were horrible beats. I'm just blowing off steam after a bad day, don't take it so serious. But if you're really interested in my day I'll e-mail you all my hands from today so you can see each and every one.

Probably had four hands today where I was 5:1 or better when the money when it. Some of it was coolers. 2 to 3 buy-ins were pure frustration where I couldn't fold a good hand when my opponent was obviously strong. Some of it was tilt.

This is standard for me as well. I normally try to play through it, but sometimes you have to leave the tables and go to your dayjob...
