This will be my last post on this subject.
For those of you who have never experienced a real "Downswing" lasting weeks at a time:
Decided to pick myself up from yesterday´s fiasco and play for some points on Gutshot. I want to play the Freeroll on sunday with the other Mobsters and saw you need 100 GPoints to sign up for that.
So I decided to play 3 micro Sng´s 50+10c with the $4.65 I have left there. Needless to say, I lost all three.
Got AA once during the whole thing, and this was the result:
Vilain goes all-in on the cutoff pre-flop, and I call.
------------ Just so you know I haven´t been exagerating about this. This is daily stuff for me since sometime in June.

Posted by jbrooksie: This might cheer you up, it's my sharkscope graph for SNG's at FT and the perfect illustration of a downturn - I laugh about it now
Ok. Makes me feel better. Looks like my bankroll...

------------ i just powerbet wet flops, most the time u get a fold and they call if they got nuts then i just check it down/hope to make better
i <3 micro PLO semibluffs
Yep, but the problem is I don´t play cash. Tournaments and SnG´s.
No way to play SnG´s without a whole bunch of Pushing, and no way to play a Tournament to the Final Table without a bunch of that as well, even though I´m trying to keep it to a minimum... Not always a good strategy in tourneys either.
But no worries, all this posting has stopped me tilting. And it´s also gotten to the point where I care less, it´s just less fun to get going and I quit after I get beat up a bunch of times. Period.

yeah, nice cooler.
In my latest tournament i busted because i lost two big pots, both with Aces for a giant stack... And finally got my ass kicked out flipping at the bubble.... It was 0.25 $ entry and first paid places got 22$.... That was aweful aswell
