FullMontyM1 0 Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 This isn't supposed to happen and it will stop soon. Don't worry about it, take a break for a few days. Play some low limit razz. All shall be fine in the world. Monty Link to post Share on other sites

Devilkin 0 Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 I would like to tell you that it isn't suppose to happen, but it is......it's online poker......it's riggedI'm on an unbelievable run of cards lately, having variance swing heavily in my favour in the last couple of days. The number of times I've hit the nut hand, only to have an opponent hold the second or third nut is just sick - but my bankroll appreciates it.It will happen to you too. Take a break, wait it out and take advantage when the cards do fall. It happens to all of us - happily you have us to vent on. :DDev Link to post Share on other sites
Mercury69 3 Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 Play smallball and don't push so hard, even if you have the virtual "nuts". It might seem like I'm counselling timidity, but I'd rather call it "small c conservative". Hell, I don't even know if this advice is good, but you can factor it in anyway...

Hell, I don't even know if this advice is good, but you can factor it in anyway...In the long run this kind of thinking costs you money, but if you're running horrifically bad this can sometimes restore some confidence.Oh and for the record... I never run bad like this... EVER. Link to post Share on other sites

I never run bad like this... EVER. Very good point, Bubba, but it'll be up to the OP to recognize when he's starting to come out of his "bad run" and hit the gas. Sometimes it only takes 5 minutes...

....Ian.... 0 Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 those beats suck.you need to take a break. if you play everyday, take a 1/2 day off. if you play less take a whole day off. Link to post Share on other sites
teddyKGB 0 Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 those beats suck.you need to take a break. if you play everyday, take a 1/2 day off. if you play less take a whole day off.Good advice...sometime I even take more than that off...just to clear my head of the beats and the feeling that I have to recoup the losses that I just incurred, you need to come to the table feeling ready to play and not care if you take another loss...not to play catchup.

Brisco 0 Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 Hang in there man. It will surely pass.I had a similar session saturday night. Lost 150.00 on consecutive hands with AA and KK.KK got beat by river flush (one card) he at Ad Thi had the Kd.AA hit my set, but he hit str8 on the turn with his 33. Happens and your upside is almost here!!!! Link to post Share on other sites

Peace out everyone...Ouch, I've lost about $250 with those kind of beats in the past 5 days or so, I think I am going to take it easy until my semester for college ends (about 2 weeks from now)...hopefully it will help. But in the mean time, I guess I will play Counter-strike...or play 1 tourney a day or something. Link to post Share on other sites
UncleHoot 0 Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 I went through a similar run and took 3 weeks off. It helped a lotI'm not sure I can stand to even take 3 DAYS off*. But yes, it's good advice. Trying to play through when you're upset, angry, depressed, whatever, will often get you in trouble.*Is it only a "gambling problem" if you lose?

irishguy 14 Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 Playing NL a month ago I lost the max buy-in 6 times in a row with pocket kings. All-in preflop and never once against aces or ace anything. I took a week off from nl and played limit, omaha and stud. I found it allowed me to refocus with out breaking my computer.

FARGOpokerND 22 Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 when i start to get all those crappy beats (yes i'll spare the details) i just pop onto PS and play in the $.10 tournies with 594 spots to cash (usually 1 outta 5) winning 49 cents for 32nd (like last night) feels like a million bucks Link to post Share on other sites
