Default i used to be good.....

ok, here's my story, not that interesting, just need to vent a little...

had been solid tourney for few years, started becoming a solid winning cash game player about a year ago. was making about 10-20k/mo for several months playing 10/20 lim sh

then started playing some nl 1k/2k ring sh, and 30/60 limit
got my br over 60k (after taking out about 40k for expenses)

was crushing everything, won wsop seat, then started running bad, seemed to be losing at everything, few k a night....

cashed over 20k at wsop

came back still sucked, cashed 10k rebuy tourney, still gave it back, even playing back at 10/20 lim

won wpt entry, won 65k at it

bubbled for a foxwoods wpt entry, since then been trying constantly for it, wasting load of time/coin

trying to play 10/20 (and even some 5/10) again, now i can't win, even when i think playin ok (not great, but not horribly). guess the hard part is figuring out if i suck or just unlucky, i'm at my wit's end, blowing my br daily. my tourney game sucks now too, just doing stupid crap like calling allins w/ flush draw and decent stack, calling big reraises w/ 1010 and not fold post when no 10 hits (even tho that's my plan when calling) won the 65k about a month ago, thought that would take the pressure off, but blew about 20k of it already, need to stop the bleeding

good news is that i am going on vacation next week with no poker....

any advice would be appreciated (expect you to say stop playing awhile, but i wanna get back on the horse!)
need to get my head together

thx
lanksy
