My worst day this month:

ITM 12%
ROI -77%

Time to take a few days off.

Yeah, if I stopped playing poker for the day after my 18 OOTM streak, I would have a - 100% ROI.

Heh, is this the bitching thread, oh good.

Friday night, 13 tournies, ITM 8%, ROI -86%.
Saturday, 25 tournies, ITM 20%, ROI -45%.

Have I stopped playing? Nope.

Re: Running cold today
 

I don't want to come off as a douchebag but get used to it.

You had a top set on a very coordinated board and got beat by a better hand. Big deal.

Re: Running cold today
 

I'll jump on too. That's all? Get used to it. It happens to me everyday. A handful of times.

Re: Running cold today
 

Poker is about making money, as long as your ROI is positive why are you here complaining?
