Chips: 69 | | | I'm DONE with online poker! Moved all in with pocket kings twice before the flop and lost to pocket aces. Moved all in with pocket aces, flopped a set, then lost on the river to a straight. Fold garbage that flops full houses (q3 off) and a straight flush (foled 10c7d would've been q high str8 flush). Lost $50.00 in two hours. I'm done with online poker. I would rather blow my money on chips.  |

Chips: 2,396 | | | Re: I'm DONE with online poker! It's not online only. I just got home. Played 5/5 tonight. Lost an all in with KK to a guy slow playing AA. Lost AA to KK when another guy hit a set on the flop and I wasn't slow playing it. I had AJ suited and hit two pair on the flop only to lose to a set of Jacks, thank god she was short stacked. Then I had 44 to hit a set against someone's QQ to put me up $140 for the night. All this fun in about 3 hours. God, I love this game. |

Now the beats roll off my back like duck poo off a duck's back.

I just took the last month off myself and only played in the CT events, it was a nice break.
Things come and go in cycles, eventually it'll swing back in your favor. |

Chips: 529 | | | Re: I'm DONE with online poker! Every form of poker is rigged. There's somebody somewhere who can see every hand and change it so that we lose. I'm convinced of it.
I want to see what happens if we all sit down at the same ring table. We'd all split every pot until we go broke from the rake
I like the idea of a break too. I started one myself the other day. I may break it for CT tournaments, but those are recreational more than for money. |

No those games are about pride and the money isn't that bad.  |

And tell me live poker is not rigged. You can pry my Full Tilt Poker 6 max cash games from my cold, dead, RSI-ridden fingers! |

Chips: 65 | | | Re: I'm DONE with online poker! I just finished a 15,000 hand breakeven streak over a month and a half...that makes you want to quit. I was down 8 buy ins at the low point, no tilt, no bad play, just beat after beat after beat. Raise preflop and miss, raise preflop and flop top two lose to a river flush, etc, etc, etc.
Finally have been hitting and am now up 20 buyins in one month, feels a little better!
Like the say, you just have to play through it, variance goes both ways.
