  1. This is just unecesary. Hop on AIM and patch things up with Annette.Serious reply: You probably are playing well anymore, take a few weeks off to get your head back on straight.
    I took the last 4 days off before today but all of those good vibes were laid to rest after playing today and having my usual string of disgusting luck all night. OK, great example, literally as I was writing this, this happened:PokerStars Game #10225687449: Tournament #51171105, $50+$5 Hold'em No Limit - Level II (15/30) - 2007/06/02 - 00:32:35 (ET)Table '51171105 9' 9-max Seat #4 is the buttonSeat 1: maxines dad (3160 in chips) Seat 2: mkind0516 (3550 in chips) Seat 3: aakkari (1545 in chips) Seat 4: arisprodigy (4335 in chips) Seat 5: raysboomroom (1230 in chips) Seat 6: Kassa81 (3420 in chips) Seat 7: moledaddy (6040 in chips) Seat 8: cdout (2570 in chips) Seat 9: Drewfus81 (3070 in chips) raysboomroom: posts small blind 15Kassa81: posts big blind 30*** HOLE CARDS ***Dealt to mkind0516 [Kh Kd]moledaddy: raises 90 to 120cdout: folds Drewfus81: folds maxines dad: folds mkind0516: raises 360 to 480aakkari: folds arisprodigy: folds raysboomroom: folds Kassa81: folds moledaddy: raises 5560 to 6040 and is all-inmkind0516: calls 3070 and is all-in*** FLOP *** [Qh Ks Jd]*** TURN *** [Qh Ks Jd] [5s]*** RIVER *** [Qh Ks Jd 5s] [Td]*** SHOW DOWN ***moledaddy: shows [As Ac] (a straight, Ten to Ace)mkind0516: shows [Kh Kd] (three of a kind, Kings)moledaddy collected 7145 from pot*** SUMMARY ***Total pot 7145 | Rake 0 Board [Qh Ks Jd 5s Td]Seat 1: maxines dad folded before Flop (didn't bet)Seat 2: mkind0516 showed [Kh Kd] and lost with three of a kind, KingsSeat 3: aakkari folded before Flop (didn't bet)Seat 4: arisprodigy (button) folded before Flop (didn't bet)Seat 5: raysboomroom (small blind) folded before FlopSeat 6: Kassa81 (big blind) folded before FlopSeat 7: moledaddy showed [As Ac] and won (7145) with a straight, Ten to AceSeat 8: cdout folded before Flop (didn't bet)Seat 9: Drewfus81 folded before Flop (didn't bet)Such a great microcasm of my game lately. If I could avoid stuff like this and get back on my A game, maybe I could see some green again. But it really feels like that won't be happening.
  2. OK, I've had some nasty downswings before but this one is by far the worst. Since April 14th, I have made THREE final tables in tournaments over 100 players, which spans nearly 300 tournaments now. While my bankroll has been shrinking steadily, my confidence and will to play are both basically gone. I used to final table big tournaments w/ a pretty decent regularity. Now, they're about as rare as my birthday. I've reviewed hand histories and studied my play a ton. I think I'm still playing at a high level 3/4 of the time, but my luck has been about as good as Steve Bartman's. I really have no idea what to do anymore. Do I go down with the ship? Is there something else I can do to get my act together? Whats left?Note: This post is mostly a vent at 2 months worth of frustration. And I didn't even include my fallout with my best friend and a -25k blackjack/tilt session.

  3. Currently 1/29 in the 100r on Stars, but the road to this point has been sick. Was down to 485 chips, in the BB at 100/200/25 w/ KTs vs AA and I rivered a straight. I actually built all the way up to 50k at 600/1200, after playing perfect short stack poker, before losing a huge pot w/ KK vs QQ AIPF after a K flopped (runner spades obv). I then got caught re-stealing twice and was back to 22k, before winning 2 races w/ 88 vs AK and KTs vs 33. Finally, I won a massive pot AIPF w/ KK vs AKs to double to 110k. I'm now at 104k, looking to pull off a major comeback.

  4. This isn't even a first time mistake for me. Last summer, I lost 8k in UB BJ out of my then 20k BR. Now, I certainly have A LOT more now, but it's still a very significant loss. It esp. hurts when you're already on a big downswing in poker, as I've been for the last month. I haven't been catching any brekas in tournaments and that lead me to go on super tilt tonight. The results were just ugly.

  5. Actually, I played 7k worth of tournies and had a wonderful $500 worth of cashes, after running sick bad all day (as I have been for much of the last month). After that, I went on severe tilt which lead me to UB blackjack, where I blew 19k. I'm still in total shock over it too. With the amount I've been losing in tournies lately, it's really hard to piss off $19k in blackjack, of all things, esp when I've blown a lot in that game b4.

  9. Hey how many times have you been heads up in the last 5 days?What place did you come in?
    This would include 2nd in the 100r twice, $100/20k guar, and a $20/180 man SNG. The combined difference btw 2nd and 1st in the 4 of them is about $18k.
    can someone please tell me who annette_15 is? I'm guessing a middle aged woman?
    Wow, u must really be living under a rock. Annette is #1 the ranked player online right now, and has just been destroying the online tournament scene since last summer. She's 18 years old, from Norway, and is probably one of my best friends.
  10. Thx guys. I was going throught about a 3-week stretch (the worst of my career) where I felt I was playing great but was catching no breaks, and that was the only reason I was losing. In the last 4 days, I'm starting to catch those breaks and my results are really starting to show. However, it would be nice if I could start picking up some W's; been a while since my last one and I've certainly had plenty of chances (7 to be exact).

  11. 2nd Place=Most Frustrating place to finish in a MttI think bubbling is not near as frustrating as finishing second, you play good the whole way, get HU where you're so close to closing out a tourney, first place pays out double 2nd place and you finish second, it sucks. Tough ones Mkind, GG.
    It's even worse considering the last 7 tournaments I got HU in I lost (and 4 of them have been this week). I used to be automatic HU, but now I'm dead weight.
  12. This is the 4th tourney I've gotten HU in, in 5 days: I've lost all 4, all to suckout. 2nd place is nice but it's brutal that I just can't close a tourney, despite getting my money in good. And yes, losing HU is a very big deal, as I've probably lost about $18k in equity just by losing all those hands. Extremely frustrating.
