What is the most $$$$ you lost in a session?

[rambozo]

Really bad night for me lost 4 buy is (-1600)

Key hands:

I have Ad Qs in heads up battle. Flop is Qd Td 4d I check and other guy bets pot, I min raise other guy moves in and I call. He has QT and I get no help.

I have 77 in CO and jack it up 4X BB to steal the blinds. SB flods and BB calls. Flop is 654 rainbow, BB bets pot I raise to double size of pot and BB moves in and I call BB has 46o and I get no help.

In three way battle I have 88 and flop is 58J all clubs. I'm in middle position and make pot sized bet one caller. Turn is another dreaded club and goes check, check and of course I call a rather large bet onn river to see that scumball has the ace of clubs.

Then I just kind stupidly pissed the rest away. When I lost a small hand to a player that I had already lost two of those key pots, I lost my temper and punch my monitor breaking it. Needless to say end of game for me. In addition to losing 1600 I have to buy a friggen CPi Latitude monitor. I found one on Ebay for $15 but I have to wait a week for the auction to end. /images/graemlins/mad.gif

After reading your key hands, it looks to me you made some bad plays, which lead to tilt. Why did you call an all-in bet with AQ on that board. What do you think someone is raising all-in with. The hand with the 77 you rasied 4XBB BB could have had 88,99 1010 JJ etc. And made the same play. What was your reasoning for that. He may even had a set. The final hand you played the hand perfect until you called the river bet. You know there are four to a flush on the board, lay it down. It is a set of 8's, your losing. My adivce is to go through the hands you played and re-think your step process, it looks to me you made some quick calls in haste with no thinking what so ever.

Hand 2 is real bad.

[rambozo]

You are correct. I reviewed the hands and I hand no where near the right pod odds to call those bets in the first two hands.

I lost $2700 one night multi-tabling mostly $400NL (with a little $600NL mixed in). It was ugly.

I then proceeded to take the last $300 I was willing to lose that night and run it up to $900 playing HU against a donk.

I then took my $900 over to a $1000PL table and ran it up to a little over $1200. I then flopped a set of Jacks got two guys all in and WALLUP! - I was up for the night.

10K.

Losses beget tilt, which begets more losses, which beget super monkey death tilt, which begets all-in bluffs...

Creed,

You just described my play for today. Were you watching me or something?

UTG min raises and gets called. I reraise to $22 (only playing $1/$2 today, thank god). He calls and bust me with his QJ when the flop is QJx.

I limp KK, 2 more limpers, then SB raises to $10. I reraise to $32. Button limpers goes all in for $60something. Sb folds and I call and lose to 77.

Couple more of these and as Vince VanPatten would say..Im tilting like the leaning tower of Pisa.

Button min raises and I reraise to $28 with AKs in the SB.
Flop QTx. I bet $45 and he calls. Turn 9. I go all in for $170. He calls with TT...(that would be the stupid all in bluff you mentioned)

Heres my question.....I play well below my bankroll limits so the actual amount of money doesnt bother me near as much as watching my win rate stats drop.

Is anyone else as obsessed with having a high win rate as I am? For me its a big confidence boost knowing my win rate is very high. When I tilt away a buy in or 2 and it drops, I get really pissed, more about that that I do about the money.

I mesure my results by the week.

I really, really don't like to have losing weeks.

I had to play a lot that week to make back that #$%^%#$ 10k.

[iceman5]

For me it all boils down to how much do I make hourly.

But Im very happy that Ive only had one losing week so far this year and I believe its 4 in the last calender year.

when i am just starting out in a game, I get annoyed seeing my winrate drop after a bad session.

thats why I like finally having a good amount (70k) hands in the 1000NL, so if I have a bad session, I dont even worry about the drop in winrate.

oh, and my biggest loss was $7k in a session, which included -$4k in the first 35mins. ugh.

FYP. You played those hands really badly. Judging by them alone, you are going to have many more broken monitors if you hate losing that much. I suggest you move down to where the money doesn't matter so much, study and improve your game, and get to the point where beats are just part of the game. It's a lot easier to get there at limits where losing won't drive you crazy. Also, that monitor will be a lot more tha $15 by the time the auction ends.

[nicky g]

I looked at some of your other posts and noted two things:

1. Several people advised you to move down from 2-4 and you did. Now you seem to be back at 2-4. Why?

2. You've repeatedly demonstrated that you don't play very well, and fundamentally don't understand some fairly basic poker and NL concepts. There's nothing wrong with that, noone understands them to start with and it's a tricky game to learn. I'm sure you're bright enough to get there with some study and experience; almost noone can do it without those. But you should realise that at your current skill level, you're likely to be a long term loser. As such, you should probably play at a level where losing is not a financial problem (that maybe the case at your current limits) and isn;t going to greatly irritate you (clearly is a problem at your current limits). Sorry if that comes off as harsh, it's meant to be helpful.
