Don't you post winning numbers every month?Have you thought about trying out Cardrunners or one of the other training sites?
Up until last month (-$280 at AP) yeah, most of the time. Down about another$ 300 there this month, plus another $200-$250 at my other 2 sites. Not really the money, I just didn't think I was capable of this kind of losing streak at the low limits. I'm just gonna drop down a level or two and cut back on playing time until I get some confidence back.I'm still on the fence about training vids, I'm sure they're good and they'd help, I just have a really hard time watching other people play poker when I could be playing . :club:

All right. Came out with about $400 profit after a little over 3 hours at 30/60 TD and 5/10 PLO which is not bad considering I was stuck close to 3K at one point. All done tilting for the day now. On the bright side, I'm earning a ton of FPP and VPP. I already have over 20K VPP in the new year.

Why not stand pat or draw only one?

Re-edit: Wow, misremembering the hand like crazy.Do you mean just lead into him? I suppose I could have done that, but if he drew one, he probably would have called me with as little as a queen or king so I figured it was better to draw and reevaluate. When he stood pat after my drawing 2 when I already had the 4 sevens, then I thought it was really really likely that he was bluffing. I figured if I checked to him, he'd usually only bet when bluffing and then I could save bets when he had a decent hand and get a fold when he was weak.I've probably played less than 5,000 hands of 2-7 lifetime though, so it's very possible that I misplayed it.

..but not a nice day
Oh ya! That's why I'm not playing PLO anymore. Thanks for reminding me.(though if you'd asked me on cooler wednesday as I'm now calling it, you may have gotten a different answer)but overall, I'm enjoying holdem again much more than I was with PLO for that last while.

Maybe it's just me, but how is it possible to 4 table stud and not lose a ton of value??There's no way to possibly track what cards are already out, etc, no?
