Sure I have had my ass handed to me once but only because it was my fault. I was 90% sure the guy (very loose player who loves to raise)had AK so I kept raising (22ajj board and I had kjs on the button). You can imagine what he showed me and I lost about $80 on the hand. That is the only time I have ever been outplayed in a live game and I learned from it.

+HARHAR! 21 days at 8 hours/day and 40 hands/hour is 6,720 hands. You've been running good, probably, unless you are a very solid player and the game is very soft. However, statements like "that is the only time I have ever been outplayed in a live game" belie your amateur status. I used to think that way, too, when I went on a good run at the beginning of my poker days. I was the best player in the FW $5/10 kill game. Then I hit the bad side of variance (I might have been a breakeven player at the time) and lost all my winnings back. I realized my hubris and sought out this place.

Stick around here and you'll find lots of good advice that will improve your game. Good poker to you.
