Default Stars frustration

Hey guys.. please go easy on me if what im about to let go upsets you, im very annoyed atm, and just need to vent.

Obviously many of the experienced players have had a night like this, but this one was my first. I felt like i played quite well, and after reviewing my hand histories, i found minimal mistakes here and there, but overall I would call my play at least a minor success. That being said... i 2-tabled Pokerstars most of the day, and am down 75BB in 918 hands. It seemed like no matter what, the last person who had 1 out left got it. I had 5 out of 38 hands where i had either top 2 pair, overpair and top pair on board, or trips and LOST to either runner runner straight/flush, or someone with a kicker slightly better(Ace over King, King over Queen) etc.

Overall, i won 28 BB from hands, and lost 103 BB, for a net of -75BB. This is at the $1/$2 level.

I have about 6000 hands logged, so im starting to get at least a glimpse of how i play.. and of course there are plenty of flaws.. but is this just a bad day? Im sure it is.. i just need reassurement. On another note, Pokerstars seems to be much more difficult for me than any other site that I have played on. I haven't played there much, but the 1750 hands that I have logged there are losing hands, where i am either breakeven or slightly ahead on the other sites.

Thanks for listening... and if anyone has some advice, id appreciate it. I hate it when my confidence takes hits like this, and of course its poker, but sometimes i just want to smack that damn pocket Jacks upside the head..

Thanks... and wish me luck. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
