Looks like my day, although thankfully I only lost around 300 total...not in one hand.

I am on a 4k slide in three days (of playing - covered 2 weeks, though). I have gotten 4, 3, 2, and 1 outered more than I thought was possible.

By now we should know that they eventually will come but for some reason everytime they still get to my head.

Yeah, thanks everyone. It's just very frustrating. I'm sure you all understand. And that one outer is pretty brutal. My beat isn't even that bad, obviously, it is just that fact that they have been coming one after the other with nothing holding up in the middle. I seriously have not had a winning session in weeks. That is just not normal.

It is, but the money is too small to really make me wince. I wish higher stakes players would post more beats. Even guys losing coin flips for $10K would make me feel a lot better, actually. El D, where are you? Post more hands...

I usually refrain, but if its going to make you feel better. Last week 25/50 NL. I have been running like ASS. Chric Daddy cool makes it 200 UTG 5 handed, button calls, i call in the SB with 55. Flop is k95r. (1 heart)i check-call 500. I check shove the 7h turn, and he alls with AKh and spikes a heart on the river. This was after a few beats i posted last weak, so it was pretty annoying. It's all just part of the deal though, don't let it affect you're game, and the $$$ will come back much more quickly.
