Default Re: frustration

You could be having a run of bad luck, but you could also be misplaying the hands. Whenever you start losing, it's important to make sure that you're not doing anything wrong.

The thing that concerns me is you give only your starting cards, as if having good starting cards entitles you to win. It's true that AA will beat KK more than half the time. But are you minimizing your losses by folding when the board does not help you but will help your likely opponents? And are you maximizing your gains when your hand does hold up?

I'm not accusing you of playing badly, just suggesting that you consider other explanations.
