I'm actually kinf of scared to get on a roll online. It seems If I win too many hands in a row I get sucked out and lose more than I earned. I hate that because I'm a pretty tight player but I try to have a loose image on the table, so rolls are the best way for me to build a huge stack!

lol say no!!!
I think what hes trying to say is that he plays tight with loose hands but when he wins its usually after hes lost but he always thinks he knows that he knows that hes unsure of the facts and after all you have got to mix up your play so better being mixed up

I forgot to mention that even if its not like a superstition and more of an observation when i multitable and i see my pocket cards dealt in the flop in another table i fold them, unless its a high pair. 99% of the time that happens i get crap with those cards even with the high pairs.

This happens to me too: same hand in different tables when playing multitable. I get a bit perturbed because i start thinking i will see the same flop in both and that becomes strange to play. We should have the enough concentration to know its two different games, but when that happens, things get strange...
dozn01: What I mean is that It's hard to win 4-5 hands in a row online. I play tight pre flop, I usually only play good suited hands at least with a % of flop seen of about 20-30%. When I play live and my tight image is made, I try to make moves with suited connectors or even worse, and then hope to get good hands after that to make people think I mixed up my game and started playing loose. So actually I play tight but I try to have a loose image when I need it, wich is not always easy. Also need luck to get good hands after I make moves... So basicly what I tried to say is that in online tournaments, even If I make 2-3 good moves, hit a good hand and double or triple myself up, I finally get a huge hand and manage to lose all my profit with it to some suited ace or off suit A10 that calls my 3bet all in...

I lke to sit at same position but it is because it is more confortable to me so i can play better but sometimes i have believed that the position of the window may affect my game, but this is maybe not a superstition but a vision tip to me cause i can see better and i can play better.
