So I've been in a major downswing at 50NL Party. I was doing well in January and February, but now I haven't won in March. I've lost probably about $400 in March (mostly the past two weeks) at Party. I'm playing tight and don't think I'm making any poor plays, but just getting beat. But of course I may be wrong and thus I'm posting here to try to fix whatever is broke. I've been very very frustrated as I haven't seen a winning session in a while. I normally play 4-5 times a week, but I took most of last week off to try to clear the frustration but when i played last night I lost about $200 yesterday. I can't seem to figure out whats wrong. Yesterday I had AA and someone went all in preflop which I called and he hit his set to take my stack. I know there's nothing I can do about that, but I'm obviously spewing money elsewhere.
Here are two back to back hands that I played this morning. No PT as I wasn't playing on my computer at home.
