What am I doing wrong?

It sucks. Sometimes you just have off days/week and then everything clicks. I would be careful about playing too loose. Do you have any stats on your play? Do you use Poker Tracker? If you posted some of your stats from PT we could probably do more than shoot in the dark. Also if you take a session and show some of the loses we could take a look and see if anything stands out.

How long did it take you to blow through the $100? Were you playing things besides .25/.50? cmon.. did you jump on a higher table, or try a $10 tourney just for the heck of it? Tell the truth.. heh.

Anyway.. give some more info and maybe we can help. Otherwise we can verify your playing well and things will turn around..

Yeah,

Also how many tables were you playing? 200BB is a decent roll, but if you're 4 tabling... More hands = more variance.

Personally I think you should loosen up a little. I dunno what you think tight is, but imho tight is VPIP of 16 percent or less.

I play loose limit (1/2 isn't .5/1 loose, but some tables are madeningly loose (in a good way) ), and my VPIP is around 19 at .5/1, and 17 at 1/2. So loosen up a little.

I agree with axs and kxs in loose multi pots. Although I'd only play Kxs in LP.

Also I dunno what your PFR is, but I think you might want to increase it to at least 8 percent.

Buy PT. This way you'll have a better idea (with a large sample size), what hands win money and what lose. Also you might be able to see where you're bleeding chips more easily.

Anywho, gl

[edit: Would like to add that I think you should take a few weeks off online play.. Sounds like you really don't like .25/.5, so take some time off and come back in a better mood. ]
