jayboogie 0 Posted July 1, 2005 Share Posted July 1, 2005 Yes I'm in the club. I'm beginning to forget what a winning session feels like. I'm into double digits as far as consecutive losing sessions go and down over 300 BB over the last few weeks. Luckily I've stepped down a limit during this downswing, otherwise it'd have been much worst. When your going bad, you just try and find any positives you can. I just try to remain positive and play my best game. Also probably you should try and play different games or a tournament, anything different than your usual game. Link to post Share on other sites
Stylin_Fish 0 Posted July 1, 2005 Share Posted July 1, 2005 Yes, guys are catching 1 outers on me. :-) Hope that softens the blow for ya. AQ losing to A5 to knock me out on the bubble.(This is not the hand where the guy caught the 1 outer) Link to post Share on other sites
Socko669 0 Posted July 1, 2005 Share Posted July 1, 2005 It's refreshing to hear players admit that they actually lose sometimes...doesnt happen to often around here. We all have downswings, some are brutal. Keep your head up Link to post Share on other sites
closetwin 0 Posted July 1, 2005 Share Posted July 1, 2005 I had a couple weird ones in an MTT today.I finally busted by getting my money in with queens against tens. He had a gutshot on the turn, but his his ten on the river so that he didn't need it.Another time, I had Kings against QJ for a pair of jacks and they hit a gutshot to make the queen high straight.Both quite unpleasant. I was doing extremely well right up till then, as well.Oh, a better one:I get my money in against AJ and QQ with AA. This wasn't ALL bad, but I had to split the frickin pot with AJ because 2345 came up on the board.Frustrating.CT Link to post Share on other sites
bmwguy525 0 Posted July 1, 2005 Share Posted July 1, 2005 I know what you mean Royal. Last week at my local casino I got rivered and turned by the dumbest crap all week. Guys stayin in with J-7 offsuit in middle position, check calling inside straight draws, and hitting them on the river. Aces getting rivered by K-6.........Then last night online I think I got outdrawn by 2-outers twice, I got outdrawn as a 90% favorite like 5 times, and as a 70% favorite like 3 times, all in within 5 hours. OUCHWhat comes around goes around though, so now I'm just waiting...............Plus I still love your avatar, you da man!!! Link to post Share on other sites

bhughes77 0 Posted July 1, 2005 Share Posted July 1, 2005 Bonuses are keeping me in the black, but I am in the middle of a rut right now as well... So far today playing $25 NL on Party, I have had my AA rivered to a flush draw. Lost with a flush to a straight flush, and then lost again with a flush to quad 9's. The good news is Ive been trying Omaha now and then for a change of pace and am really enjoying it. Link to post Share on other sites
rbakken2504 0 Posted July 1, 2005 Share Posted July 1, 2005 I feel everyone's pain, this month sucked, i've had like 3 winning sessions, depleted about 50% of my bankroll this month, every hand i made, got sucked out on! Been steaming about it for awhile, longest bad run of variance i've ever had. Hopefully next month goes better. Link to post Share on other sites

spintwisted 0 Posted July 1, 2005 Share Posted July 1, 2005 im with all you guys june has been a terrible month for me... glad im not alone Link to post Share on other sites
HisBoyElroy 0 Posted July 2, 2005 Share Posted July 2, 2005 Ditto. Like what one of the other guys said, bonuses are the only thing keeping my bankroll over 300 BB.Pokertracker is a good thing during these times. It proves you aren't crazy. I've looked through my hands from the last 3 weeks for leaks and found a few problems, but those weren't really costing me the big money though (less than 10% of the losses). Somehow KK, AKs, and AKo are losing hands for me in the month of June. I've made zero flushes with AKs that didn't pair the board to give someone else a full house. Every set I've had with KK has lost to a card that came on the river. Link to post Share on other sites
AFD92 0 Posted July 2, 2005 Share Posted July 2, 2005 Glad to see I'm part of the cool group. Lost 65% of the BR this month. Taking breaks playing good, just keep losing. And of course this isn't a Bonus month for (June) for Full Tilt, so I don't even have that to cheer me up. Here's to a good July for us all.... Link to post Share on other sites
93transam 0 Posted July 2, 2005 Share Posted July 2, 2005 had a horrible month as well...just last night i had pocket aces twice and they got busted by QJ offsuit and K10 offsuit....both within 10 minutesi can handle the bad beats but its so frustrating Link to post Share on other sites
overthetop 0 Posted July 2, 2005 Share Posted July 2, 2005 Well that was depressing. I got back into poker hardcore in June, since school ended. Despite missing the first 10 days of the month becuase I took a trip to Israel, I played about 10k raked hands and grew my account from 450 to 3700. So some of us have been hitting!

Swingy 0 Posted July 2, 2005 Share Posted July 2, 2005 Horrible nastiness stalks me on pokerstars, and I'm turning into a superstitious fool. Everytime I sit down to play, all I want to do is go out and do something else. I've been taking breaks, tons of them, one Guinness at a time. I guess I'm an alcholic, nah, check that, I'm loving the weather here in Chicago. Link to post Share on other sites

Ninjaballz 0 Posted July 2, 2005 Share Posted July 2, 2005 I lost this month, including a 100BB loss in 1 night of stud 2 nights ago.Actually got so pissed I withdrew my entire bankroll of about 3k and left about 30 dollars and change to build up my roll again. After 1 night of the PP .50/1 O8 ATM machines, hiked my account to about 130. After I clear my bonus in a week my account should be close to 400 again. Link to post Share on other sites
Pupsta 0 Posted July 2, 2005 Share Posted July 2, 2005 maybe all of the sites decided to start their official riggings in june...i actually completely busted, from over 2000. poor bankroll management, horrid luck, couple of tilting sessions did me in. time to take a break, start fresh in a little while.

missIdaho 1 Posted July 2, 2005 Share Posted July 2, 2005 I was glad to find this thread so I could gripe about the hand I just lost with. I was playing a heads-up SnG against a really bad player over at bodog. I went all in with a flush draw after the flop knowing that he didn't have anything. He called with Q3. I was holding AJ and neither of us had even a pair so I wasn't concerned. But ofcourse he paired a three on the river and I missed my flush. After that I didn't have enough chips left to get me much farther because of the increasing blinds. I normally don't like to gripe about other players making stupid calls, because I know if I hadn't gone all in in the first place to try to make him fold it never would have happened, but it really pissed me off tonight.I think I'm just going to turn of the computer and call it a night. I'm not in a good mood to be playing.Edited: Hey, my very first post with a " pissed " in it. Cool. Link to post Share on other sites
