Hello everybody! it's nice to see that happen to another! lol! I am in full bad rush so I understand very well. But I think it will necessarily be reversed. I try to not lose my bankroll so far!
There have been moments when I think that pokers not in my future due to donkies,suck outs and bad beats. Recently though, I found some useful info online that was encouraging enough to say that my overall play is solid and clarifies in some detail where I can make improvements and become profitable enough to move up some limits.

Posted by dozn01: try playing lower stakes and the bad beats wont hurt so much , plus it wont hurt you bankroll either
there are not lower stakes that the ones i last played ... i had to withdrawn my money when i was playing at 5.5$ according to bankroll management ,from that moment things went bad for me, its one thing your AA being beat by QQ or KK but when your QQ is beat by Q8o with a straight on flop ... Now im kind of cooled down , Marin Cilic lost to Andy murray and my bankroll is gone again , so it's all again like when i started playing poker.

Dealing with tilt comes with experience imo. The more you play, the more it'll happen, the easier it'll become. I was lucky enough, and I mean it, to lose $600 in 30 minutes playing NL200 whilst on mega monkey tilt, very early on in my poker career - I rarely tilt now, a shrug of the shoulders and a sigh and onto the next hand. Well apart from when I get sucked out on and the donk calls me a, and I quote, "FISHY FUKC" lol
In a $20 MTT on PS.. 20 away from the money and sat in 4th place. Chipleader on my table..
I have AA in mid position. UTG raises to I re-raise. It folds around to him and he shoves.. I naturally cally..
I have AA
He turns over 10 10
FLOP A Q J...
Turn is a 3
You know whats coming on the river. I knew it straight away..
Sure enough he hits the K on the river. I am busted...
THAT is something to get mad about...
I dont know how big the mtt was, but if you were playing for hours and for more than 1000 $, that might be a spot to fold Aces preflop (after his shove).

another player who loses some and all he does is whine if you can't take badbeats you can never be a successful player in poker, try whatever you want there is no running away from them

I also have some bad nights sometimes, but not loosing every time i went to see the river. This hings happen men, andwhen you start thinking about a possible scheme around online poker, you just get even more mad. When tilting... things get even worst. Calm down, take some poker vacation, then start playing with your friends for real, not on the net, to see that you also can loose offline, and only after you should give online poker a new chance. This is a game, dont think about it as your way to richness, is just a hobby game!

In poker everything can happend. It depens on the cards. I always have luck on the river. =D But when I think about my enemy's they must really be pissed when they lose on the river.

If only there was a way to strangle donkeys & luckboxes trough the computer. In my country we have a saying: "its better to be born without a d**k than without luck". I wish I was born with luck
