I love poker

[99%evil]

I took $40 and ran it to $130 playing .5/$1 Razz in about 3 days, 8 hours of play.

Then took $130 to ZERO in about 2 hours getting destroyed...Razz lost about $80 of it with hands like A,3,4,5,6 losing to A,2,4,5,6 and 6 high on 5th street losing to the wheel caught on the river...with 9 high up until the river. Then jumped to NL SNG and proceeded to lose on the bubble in 3 of them with KK up against AQ, A on the turn, AT A on the flop, 6,8 (I was low in chips here so I can't blame the guy for calling with 6,8 and he was chip leader) 6,8 on the flop. So now I'm busted on P*. Until I reload...gonna have a thread here soon pan handling for Paypal for P*.

Littlebu is your post a venting post or looking for feedback?

Other than CT games I am taking this week (and maybe next week)off - I was running decently until this weekend - especially last night. 3 SnG's in a row I got sucked out on big time - I got so frustrated that I proceeded to donk off another $10 in cash games ($.10/$.25 NLHE) until I finally realized I needed to stop and take a break. With Fantasy football drafts around the corner I need to concentrate on my draft sheets anyway

[dad604]

Well, you get great days and then you get days such as above. That is poker. It will improve.

[littlebu]

Kinda venting, kinda joking helps me refocus. I ended up for the session it was just all these happend in a row and I ran so riduculously hot last week I figured it was going to be the inevitable downswing occurring.

When I am running good, I don't spend much time posting but when I am running bad, I take a break and post lots here.

Seeing all my posts here recently should tell you how I am doing at the moment.
