What a day! Every tourney i have seemed to play in the cards just didn't like me. If i had AK - flop would be low, pocket pair - flop comes high, suited connectors - flop comes 3 of a different suit!
So many folds just eating away my stack all day.
And when i had best hand i seemed get called down and suck out on the river to the guy chasing a gut shot.
One of the best had to be my AA up against 10 10 and K 10 so all ended up all in after a low flop for the case 10 to hit the river
Reckon the hand below sums it up tho

G'day mate
I am right there with you today. Been getting great hole cards and just keep missing the board. Lost half my bankroll today and I am using proper bankroll management or i would be broke. Been getting incredible starting hands and there all losing. I literally won 4 hands out of an 600 hand session. It has been horrid. Well I wish us both better luck at the tables mate be cool

Well, that's common on my world... always happen to me the same... But I guess those are part of the rules (not a good part). I will just say Good Luck for the next one... Bye!

dunno if it helps, but when i have a torrid time switching to other poker form does help a lot, say u'r grinding NL Holdem, losing left and right (or keep missing the board as is in your case) switch your efforts to pl omaha or draw or anything else. min stakes no extremes, this might change the flow of the game...gl

well, just today I have one of those days I am just always that guy with little bit worse hand how sick it is to lose with second nuts, K high flush against A high flush... or with two top pairs AQ against QQQ Too bad that its happening on cashgame, but I am so pro, so I lost only around 5 dollars

Better day today, 435% profit form Poker Ace cash ($2 into $8.70), small profit from Rush whilst getting my bonus promo points and some cashes in some timed games on PS.

Sucked out somewhat in the last hand as wel, thought the BB was trying to bluff me on the SB. Apparently not though lol

Just one day? lol... Well, it happens to everyone now and then. Sometimes a downswing can last for months. Wether is it just bad luck or because you are playing on a rigged site, these periods of bas beats will happen. So hey, just one day?! That's reason for a party dude Just forget about, take a good sleep and move on. That's what good poker players do

Hi mate, nothing you can do about that hh you posted there, you can't not call. Its just the way it goes sometimes as I suppose you already know. You can't win them all unfortunately, even if you think you deserve to.

You are correct if it was just the one day I would celebrate big time. Unfortunitely i seem to be in a major down swing. This is my 4th straight week of constant loses. I know it will pass and in the end I will make a profit but when you are knee deep in crap and the way out does not seem to be anywhere in sight you get a little worried sometimes. I think I might take a couple day off and rest from playing poker. That means I will be walking away from getting my Goldstar back this month on PStars.
