This is getting rediculous. Whole day, nothing but suckouts. My overpair is crushed about 17 times out of 20. It's really pissing me off. I know i should do a little break, but i really want to play. I feel like a little kid... Any advice?

Take a break, or otherwise you could go broke. The best is a few days, especially because I think you lost a lot, 17 big pots can count. Do you have the histories? Because in some spots it could be good to lay down an overpair. I would say post them and ask advie, on this site are a few good players, and maybe they can give you hints to lay them down in some spots, which can save you a lot of money.

I don't play cash games, i play sit and go's, and sometimes i have to push, so if i have let's say AA, and get called by 99, then i already know what the rivercard is. I wasn't talking about arguable situations, but situations, where i know i'm definitely ahead, a lot ahead, and still lose. If i lose because of my own mistake, it won't shake me much, cause then i can learn something from it, but thes things were just sick. I'm used to getting bad beats, but not that much..

i know what u mean paul i play alot of sngs on pstars and for about 2, 3 weeks i could not win a thing. i was ahead everytime the villian has 3 outs and he hits it or as u say just 2 or 1 and they always hit it. it makes u sick when u are not even doing anything wrong. i play multi table sng like 27-45 and i tend to do well soon as i get a little lead at the table but i just could not get that lead, between getting crap cards suckouts and running into Ks it was driving me nuts! all i can say is have faith u will turn it around

Yeah, sometimes you get the feeling that the poker room wants you to lose... and the worst is that most of the time you're well ahead. I experienced that before and went broke so better stop and quit before it's too late.

Read the freakin' thread, before you answer. Is it so much to ask? Or don't answer, it's better if u don't, than just shout out words, and put your cool emoticon there!
