Second Best Hands
 

Wtf, how do you handle this shit when in the last 600 hands, i've lost
(all in) AK to 53, trip 5's to trip K's, two pair vs straight twice, Q high flush loses to A high flush, two pair loses to trip 3's.... I've already lost 60% of what I won from the previous 1000 hands... so im right on target to going back to even :S...

I've becomed more aggressive, but it seems im always getting second best hands and im only playing 21% of my hands.

Ugh, so wtf...

sucks man, not much else to say. Post some of those hands in the "how should I have played it" section to make check your line, esp the two pair losing to straights and trip 3s. But really 1600 hands is not a large sample size. I hate to tell it to you but I have run bad for 15,000 hands. I don't mean the "oh I am getting a lot of bad beats" run bad, I mean the with the luck lines and damn my luck is bad. And I know 15K hands cold streak is weak compared to what others have suffered.

That is the bitch of it, and why I like it. Your brain is conditioned to see short-term success or failure as an indication of your status, but the skill of poker is only revealed with large sample sizes and long term analysis. The best thing you can do it post a lot of hands, always make sure you are playing your "A" game, stop playing when you are not, and try to ignore the results.
