I only have about 3400 hands in my database, but I need some advice now. I started playing online a little over a month ago. I started at Party .5/1, then to Paradise .5/1 to take advantage of bonuses. All in all, I made a killing. I put the money back into Party to take advantage of the reload bonuses and I'm getting killed. My BB/100 is not atrocious over the last 1900 hands (a little better than -2bb/100) or so, but most of my sessions have been losing sessions over that span (and the last nine straight), and my winning sessions are not that great. At first I thought it was just bad luck, but now I think I am seriously doing something wrong. I'm not sure if my stats are any good at this point, since I have so few hands, so I'll just post some hands and you guys can tell me if I'm doing something wrong.

I am also losing pretty consistently with hands like AJs and AK. But the most lost $$ is going to hands like the last one above, big hands that get crushed and I lost like eight or nine bucks at once. Somebody give me a little advice. This could just be a downsing (as far as I know, I am not playing any differently than the first month or so). Tell me if my small sample of stats could help out as well.

Much Thanks in advance,
Freddie
