    Default The downswing from hell

    In reality it's nowhere near but it fekn feels like it.

    I've just spent the last hour ranting and raving like a lunatic. This hour isn't new, it has been going on for days. I cannot hit a draw, I cannot flop a set...2 lies already, I done both in the blinds, I won a massive 2bb with a set of 4's on a three suited board and a flopped straight (ok so I didnt exactly catch it). I've lost count the number of times AA & KK have seen no action yet TT & JJ sees me getting re-raised every single fekn time. My neighbours hate me! I wish I could kick the cat, I only have a solid marble top table with metallic legs, it hurts! I want something else to scream. Every TPTK or even half decent kicker, or even crap kicker, in fact any hand I might just be ahead sees the scare card on the turn. Unfeknbelivable, I really want a cat!

    Now off to watch a tuff fish or whatever his name is vid...rant over

    Pls feel free to add your rant.

    I think I should also add my neighbours dont know I'm playing poker. What do they really think when I'm yelling "fekn queens", "fekn bitches", "where's my flop", "fekn suck out", "always getting sucked out", "can i just for once hit something"...yep, I'm crazy

    I lost with the last 4 sets I hit until today. I finally got a guy to chuck 50 bb's into the pot with a turned two top two pair. My set held up too! The previous 4=one flushed away, all in on the flop, 2 straighted away (one I got in bad, the other was all in on the flop with an open-ender), and one rivered a set of aces all in on the turn. I just got finished with a crazy downswing, so hopefully that was the end of it.

    Variance is a bitch (no offense ladies ). After running really good for a month and a half, I've really been slumping myself for the last couple weeks. *Sigh* Such is the life of a grinder.

    I had been running around 4.5 - 5.11 BB/100 at Full Tilt for the last 4 months. Now, since middle of May, I cannot even book a winning session. Last night, I played almost 2k hands and was dealt KK 13 times. I lost 159 BB's with KK and was a loser overall in the session with AA and QQ which is really sick!

    My entire poker career has been a downswing.
    Think for yourself. Question authority.

    i cannot stand the variance on NL sometimes, it just becomes unbearable. 7-stud H/L has been a massive money maker for me tho, raking in around 10 BB/hr over the past month or 2. With rakeback and AP points, its really going well.
