i lost to 4 two outers and then 2 three outers today at PS. Anyone have such a long streak of bad luck at this site? Im literally sick to my stomach. My last game I just lost and starting swearing at everyone and lost my chat.

32 buyins in 24 hours? Why you must be really bad.

and your point is......
Basically, the cards are breaking even. You wouldn't be posting this unless you expected them not to, therefore, they must have been breaking your way for a long time. There is a reason that good money managers always have 40-100 (or more) buy-ins available. It's because you can go on a downer and lose 50 buy-ins during a normal bad streak. You won't lose 50 in a row but you will be losing far more than you win during this time so get used to it. That's what makes poker so challenging.

Thank you venazula. I do play winning poker. Ive been playing the 10+1 sngs at PS for 2 months. Started with 50 and moved up to 1500. If it seems like im crying then im sorry, but the chances of losing 4x when i have an 80 percent edge and then 2x with a 65 percent edge is pretty crazy. it was consective too. hand me a kleenex i guess, but im not used to losing like this.

If this is true and you learn to deal with the downswings, move up.

Hopefully your rectal lining is thicker, or else sooner or later all the suck-out artists are going to give you a lot of tears.

I think everyone cries and bleeds the first time, but then you have to man up and deal with it.

i did it twice. i'll probably do it a third time when it happens to me again, but that probably won't happen for a while because i need the second time to end first.

i didnt mean to be an [censored], but i like how it turned out. seriously, i am running ridiculous. crazy insane good. you have no idea. I push with T9s, and I genuinely expect to have AK call and have a 9 flop and thats the end of him. i have won about 6/7 of the last 60/40s.
