I finally had to post in this thread after this week, and mostly because I was hoping it would help me shake it off. I feel like I have been affected by the "luck" this week, and my game has suffered. For example, I could have minimized the damage on the the kings hand above, right after those aces got rocked back to back. That would be $200 above the -$50 I am at right now. But my biggest problem this week is my confidence. I have not been confident in my game, and I get even more discouraged because I have had big wins but only because I have gotten mind numbingly lucky. I don't feel like I am grinding, but rather gambling at this point. After a good nights sleep last night, I think I am numb to what happened last night and ready to jump back on the grinding train...just have to figure out where to get on. After all this rambling, I guess I mean thanks for the comments, because sometimes you just need someone from the outside to pick you up and dust you off and push you back in there. So here I go, nose stopped bleeding and so did the ass, and now I am ready to go.

, *sigh*, poker...
