Am I Doing Something Wrong?


Recommended Posts

I'm 21 yrs old, and have been playing poker for about 3 years now. I usually play $10-40 tournaments throughout my city, with players ranging from 8-40. Plus I play in casinos (1-2 cash, 50-100 tournies) and have been doing really well over the past few year. But this entire year has hit a brick wall. I cannot get anything going, nor can I get any decent finishes anymore. I read Harrington's books, and took a few months off to rethink my strategy. About a month ago, I came back to poker. But still I cannot make any money. I feel like Im doing the right things and making the correct moves, and plays. My confidence has decreased dramatically, and Im not sure what I should do. Does anyone have any suggestions, because I used to clean up games, and now I struggle to place. Also, I think the cards are playing a huge factor. I havent seen a decent run of cards in a long time, and always seem to be a big favorite in alot of hands, and then get sucked out on. If anyone can give me some advice, that would be appreciated. Thanks for your time.

i know exactly what u meanim 18 and i used to go on a sick run and now despite putting money in with the best hand and got sucked out on a lot for a whileit happens to everyone, as long as you put money in with the best hand, you will be a long term winnerhappened to me a while ago and i considered quitting but i realized it was just a bad runa break would possibly help, but you said youre making all the right moves and such so i see no reason to stop

I think every member of the forum should now laugh at this troll. ahhahahhahahahhahaha.If you look at his previous posts, Carp used to ridicule players for posting about $5 tournament rail posts, and was very rude.In fact, he even declared that if given the opportunity he could ft a $5 tournament within 3 tries. I attempted to bet him $ on this, but he backed down.Since he was so rude to sincere posters, I think we should all be rude to him when he is trying to be sincere.This poster is a troll and lets all laugh............hahahhahaaaaaaaaaahahahah.

I sure hope you mean number of players (see bold) and not their age...playing against 8-year olds is not cool.

I disagree. Playing against 8 year olds is +EV.By the way OP. you get what you deserve. Don't come looking for sympathy from us.

In the last two days, I've not only final tabled a $10 tourney, I won it. Yesterday... I won a $4.40 tourney. Two in a row! Clearly this is not difficult to do. Wanna bet a grand? (sw)
