Dude, I totally know what you mean. I have been writing down all my hands lately, and I'm getting AA once out of every 179 hands, and it's even worse for KK. I get it once ever 198 hands. I feel like I never get anything good.

When I hear about other people going through what I do, I feel a little better, but it does make me begin to believe in some of the luckbox talk.

I'm picturing you with a notebook filled with pages and pages of notations. Do you keep track of suits too? [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

I don't keep track of suits. I have 1 column for each hand (AA, AK, AKs) and I make little tickmarks. When I reach 50 for a given hand, I make a new box for it. The notebook is filled up through 80 pages or so. That represents 42,000 hands.

Um, getting either one of these hands is exactly 220:1 against. I'd say you're doing fine in this department.
