50 NDoes anyone else think they run far worse on one site than others?

[Gobias Ind.]

I understand Stars is far more loose than FTP. And yes, I dealt w/ downswings on both Party and FTP, but Jesus H. Christ Stars is destroying me. Big pair, ALWAYS runs into set. Flopped sets getting caught up to by fl and str draws like its my job! And of course the always sexy set-over-set.

I sound like an idiot saying there's a cashout curse and in all fairness, I know when I'm not steaming it really is dumb but WTF?!?!?!?!

350 hands tonight. 3 buy-ins lost.

Here are the 3 big ones. Yes, mistakes made on the 2nd and 3rd hand but is the 2nd hand an auto-muck considering I've got half my stack in??? 3rd Hand, maybe I could've called and saved $13, but seriously . . .HOW DO THESE CARDS KEEP ARRIVING???????

Hand 1: Raise preflop? Moron gets a better price to catch his gay riv. Even said, "Nice [censored] riv" when the 8 fell before the cards opened.

Thats actually kind of an interesting theory. I've thought that I spew easier and/or pay off rather marginally when playing 12 as opposed to 10 or 9 tables. Curious as to what other people think who have done similar when going through downswings.

[FireStorm]

None of these hands are all that interesting. Why in the world are you limping AsQs in hand 1 on the button? In hand 2 it's actually possible, altho not easy, to fold once the guy CR's into two players.

fire up as many tables as u can handle playyin well. durrin downswings i generally dont cut back tables cuz i find it a waste of time (my hourly comes from the ammt of tables i play and talent base. if the talent still isnt talented...i see no reason to cut back just cuz im gettin 3outted a lil more than normal. itll even out eventually)

Your losses are my gains, i guess. I'm running at 32BB/100 over the past 5000 hands at Stars.

Hand 1: Raise preflop + raise a little more on the flop, but otherwise it is just a cooler.

Hand 2: If it is absolutely clear what your hand is you have to raise more preflop, because UTG indeed is getting the odds to chase with his 77's especially since the other guy is probably coming along (to about 7). The rest is a cooler.

Hand 3: Minraises more often than not mean: I have KK or AA. While your call could be justified though it is absolutely no place for fancy plays. These ones cut your winrates enormously. Yesterday I was 4-tabling and I saw a very aggressive guy threebet me from the SB while I raised a poster from the CO and just put it all in there with TT; he had KK, ouch that hurt....
