hi everybody... (friday 13th sent me on my way) 1st off i have not been betting on horses! although if i did i would probably have a better chance...i've been hammering away for the past 8 hours on hero poker and no matter what i do i just cant win!
ive been in head up situations quite alot were i'm going in ahead and coming out last.and always the river doing me in.well apart from 1 hand were i was called wi a rag A and he flopped 2pair to kill my pocket pair...very frustrating.and especially every time when its on the river...in both HE nd PLO luckily u cant just jump in to your laptop or some people would be waking up with a sore head(after ive clobbered them!) about 17 HU situations that have killed me.my br has suffered terribly.gona start from scratch again well$ 0.10 left better luck later.play 1 freeroll then take a breakk for a day! ive run into a hope everyone else has done fine today
------------ gets better and better....$100 triumvirate freeroll i get dealt 99.raise 5xBB buton calls flop comes Qx9... i bet twice the pot turn comes 3 i go allin...DONK calls and shows Q3....river...Q guys like him shuda been drowned at birth(maybe a bit harsh but really pisses me off gettin done over by s**t play) he will probably jus blow his load (of chips) now,

Thought it was just me having a bad day on Friday teh 13th. I played in 12 SnG's and didn't place in one. Although they're only the micros I usually place 1 out of 3. Made it to the bubble 5 flipping times and popped on silly hands. KK beat by JJ due to player hitting on river, beat out twicw by the mighty flush on the river and can't, beter yet, don't want to remember the rest of my loses.

Hi grahamy27.
You will have more luck next time. Days like this are good to exercise anti-tilt systems. Remember 'Sessions that don´t kill you makes you a better poker player'.

Good days and not so good days, it happens to everyone and yes even The pro's have there swings lol Not that it helps much to know that as they probably have more but look ahead and learn from the past games.

I think you saw the dark side of the variance and this is verry hard to accept when it happens for a long time. But in a lot of situations where you thing this was a suckout, you find a coinflip or only a 60:40 leading.
