I hate being on the bubble, having a VPIP of 5%, then the one time I push, I have AQ and he has AK. Happens way too much.

Its been a month and three days since Ive been doubled up....in that span, I have doubled up 10 ppl, 8 of which were on out draws. Now im back to 25NL and I cant win, which is embrassing to say. I think I am the only poster on 2+2 with a negative bb/100 in 25nl

You know what I hate?

Folding two bazillion times in a row, getting KK, and going to the mat against a LAGtard who just happened to have AA that time.

Runner runner straights.

Donks who value call the nuts on the river.

Getting outplayed by someone who probably didn't realize they were outplaying me.

Having a 15/8 opponent river a 2-outer on me.

Runner runner flushes.

Going 4 bets preflop, 4 bets flop, and 4 bets turn with a guy who rivers his flush with KJs vs. my flopped set of aces.

Getting called down by jack high. And losing.

Flopping quads vs. a guy who flopped the nut boat and decides to slowplay me til the river.

Flopping the nut boat vs. a guy who flopped quads and decides to slowplay me til the river.

Runner runner two pair.

Losing 20 BBs to a couple of terrible LAGs who then leave the table.

Winning 50 BBs Friday night, losing 55 BBs Saturday night, and winning 54.5 BBs Sunday.

Winning 30 BBs in my first 40 hands, because I'm too retarded to play the rest of my hands.

Runner runner splits.

Bottom two pair.

TT.

Seventy-hundred missed flush draws in a row.

The nut flush on a double paired board.

Disconnects.

3-outers.

Idiot wannabe TAGs who can't shut up about how bad someone is playing.

Being asked if I'm Harv72b from the 2+2 forums on table chat.

People in my database with 83/35/2.1 numbers over 400 hand samples and win rates of 8 BB/100.

People who think it's cool to call aces "pocket rockets".

"Pocket JJ" (or any other pocket pair)

Not being able to have a Neteller account because I live in Maryland.

Putting in 4 bets on the flop with a flush draw, hitting it & getting in 3 bets on the turn, and the board pairing on the river.

Rivered 1-outers.

Long lists filled with annoying whining about bad luck in poker.

JJ in NL- my only pocket pair with -bb per through 40K hands. I mean seriously, wtf.

Getting it all in on the flop with 2 pair or better against a flush draw 7 times in a session and losing every single one of them.

Jerkoffs who sit down, play terribly, luckout on an all-in and bust my flopped trips with runner runner straights, and then leave the table.

Getting folded around to with AA in the big blind.

Set over set. Getting stacked period.

People who raise 15Xbb and show K7s.

People who raise 15Xbb, call a push, and win with K7s against AA.

Table coaches. Shut up. Shut up. Shut up.

It baffles me that after all this time variance can still screw with my head. I sit there looking at the logic, I did all I could, I played perfect, why do I feel miserable?

Theres points where Ive played perfect sessions and gotten my ass handed to me, and I went to bed just as satisfied as if I was on a total heater.

I've lost that wonderful ability and I dont know how.


Ive been reading gigabets famous post over and over again as well as some vintage variance stuff from clarkmeister and zee, but I still feel frustrated I dont get it.

Its damn hard to unlearn what living for 22 years in a results oriented society will teach you.
