Beware the cash-out curse!

[LondonBroil]

I have absolute proof that Absolutepoker has a cash-out curse because last week I played 1 night and made 35BB at a 5/10 Hold Them table then cashed out $190000 to my checking account and then just now I sat down at a 2/4 table which should be easier since it's a lower limit and I'm down 10BBs! after just 20 minutes of bad beat after bad beat like had AT and the flop was A82 the turn was a 5 and the river was another 8 and the guy had an 8!

Is this a Joke??? Down 10 BB's is not that big of a deal, and it happens to the best players. And you shouldn't be all too upset with that bad beat. First of all, pair of Aces with a ten kicker is not a very good hand, and the way the bad beats are coming for me lately, I almost expect to lose that type of hand when I make a pair.

Another thing, since you are playing at a lower limit, you get worse players who think their middle pair is good all the way. Thus, you get players calling you to the river with the second best hand, and catching a NOT SO miracle card.

Hope your luck picks up though.

Here's a good rule of thumb. If you have to ask, it most likely is.

Is this a Joke???

I think so. I heard he only cashed out $180,000.

Well - on a truthfull side - I had 7 winning days in a row and cashed out 150BB's leaving 40BBs in my account yesterday.

I GOT SPANKED by guys seeing the flop 80% of the time in 2/4 and lost 35BB's. It was my worst day in months. I was seeing the flop less then 20% and every time I had a hand it was beat.

...I played 1 night and made 35BB at a 5/10 Hold Them table...

Of course this is not a joke! See, he was playing at a Hold Them table, and if you care to read the fine print you all should know that the site got the right to hold them money at a Hold Them table.
