Jdr999 0 Posted May 28, 2007 Share Posted May 28, 2007 Been running so bad the last 2 days in cash games. Can't get away from overpair when some flops a set, card dead, continuation bets always get called, take shot a higher limit, get coolered, lose 60-40's. Total damage: -850! I'm going to go masterbate now. I hope I feel better after that. Link to post Share on other sites

benpatt 0 Posted May 28, 2007 Share Posted May 28, 2007 bah, these things happen, i find going on a run and working off some steam helps me, maybe having a good meal (subway) and then sit down refocus and see if things dont go better, gl. Link to post Share on other sites
Webslayer 0 Posted May 28, 2007 Share Posted May 28, 2007 I've got good news!!! I just save a ton of money by switching to geico. -obv brag postAnyhoo, Change games. Play some PLO, or stud for a few days. When I go on a hold em funk, a little change does wonders. When you come back you are refreshed and refocused. Link to post Share on other sites
Tantalar 0 Posted May 28, 2007 Share Posted May 28, 2007 well that sucks. Not sure what to say really. Been there, done that. The best way to feel better after getting really unlucky is to 1) Do your girlfriend up the butt, or go to .01/.02 NLH and go all in every hand Link to post Share on other sites

TR1N1TY 0 Posted May 28, 2007 Share Posted May 28, 2007 I usually play heads up matches when I am getting beat up in tourneys/cash games. You can take out a little more aggression and see plenty of flops...get it all out of your system. Link to post Share on other sites

DunkinDonuts 0 Posted May 28, 2007 Share Posted May 28, 2007 I was held up at gunpoint this morning by two teenagers on bikes... in broad daylight, a block from my apartment. They didn't get my wallet because I told them I'd rather have a bullet in me than hand it over, but now I have to look for a new apartment because I don't actually want to get shot, and I can't dodge bullets.Total damage for opting out of sublease: -$1875 Link to post Share on other sites
