What you describe is not unusual at all. I have had three losing sessions in a row playing live. My record is seven. I usually play 2-5 hours at a session. The last three sessions, have been just like you describe, Good starting hands and the flop missing me completely or flop a set and get beat my a gut shot straight on the river.

I believe it is just the nature of poker. No matter how well you play, sometimes, you are just not going to win.

If I have the math right, you were up thirty plus hours on a few hours of sleep. I think that is insane. I know people play that long and that short on sleep all the time but most people are long term losers at poker.

Normal variance can account for your loss but I have to believe sleep deprivation played it's part as well.
