I was wrong, you were right, but that's why i joined 2+2, 80K hands...

Previously I had argued that 10K hands was a fair demographic to judge one's capabilities. I recant, my 2+2 bretheren. Tonight I played hand number 80K of 30-60, and I have to say that I regret making that statement.

After 80K hands of 30-60, I have a win rate that I can't calculate because I dont have any sort of poker software to come up with a number that microscopic. In fact, I have no poker tracker or anything of the like, which will change upon completion of this post. Eighty thousand hands, and this is not a joke, (to some it will be) I have managed to gain less than one small bet.

Was I running good for the first 10K hands? Perhaps.

Have I been running bad lately? Yes

Has that had a significant impact on my game? Unfortunately, the answer here is yes, too.

Did I really lose $9,000 in the last 16 days and not book a single winning session? Yeah, and even piss poor players dont do that....


So, I stand before you, beaten and war torn, in submission.

I never thought I would say this, but alas pride is the deadly sin in poker, I was wrong.

From hereforth I will listen and take into account, and not dismiss and argue in futility.


I can't believe I've played 80K hands and havent even earned one [censored] [censored] ass small [censored] bet.


I'd like to thank those of you who are able to consistently beat the 30 games and higher who gave me the time of day in your replies.

I'm going back to 15-30....

shocking...

shocking that i recanted?

or sarcastically shocking results?


save your fingers...both.....

Just keep posting and working on your game. My first shot at the 30 didn't work out. It's good that you can admit you were wrong, and in the future, if respected posters tell you they are sure of something, they are probably right. Also, dont limp AA from the SB.

btw, are you saying you won 0.0bb/100 over 80k hands or less than .5bb/100 over 80k hands, or <0.0bb/100 over 80k hands?

How do you know you played 80K hands if you don't have PokerTracker or any other software?

Wow, just wow. I only lurk on mid-high but I have been reading quite a few of your posts. Its not often people make the realization you have. Also, I would suggest you try out the 10/20 6-max games as well as well as read the HUSH forums.

I only lurk in this forum. But I have to say this is impressive. I cannot think of too many posters, that would be this honest. Very classy post, which in my opinion bodes very well for your future.
