usually, when I say I'm running bad, it's because I'm making horrible plays, or what not, however in the past 4k hands I have been running 8 buyins under expectation. I'm playing fine, and the hands i'm losing for bad beats, i'm favored to win 85% etc... its surprising i'm not tilted, but i really hope things turn around.
sick downswing for the past week. that is all. i'm being rivered so many times, all my sets are on monotone flop/turns, and my aces keep getting cracked. Hope things turn around soon.
I run like god at NL25 right now. Up 2 buyins in 150 hands. hit quads twice, and nutflush on flop first hand. i dont like running hot when moving up because then i might make a habbit out of bad situations which worked while i was on a winning streak. i dont want to run like shit either, i just want to run normal!
anyways, played 200 hands so far of NL25, and I went from $502 to $556 in less than an hour playing 2 tables.
I was at $490 with only 1 buyin to go at NL10, and then i lost 7-8 80-20 pots and spewed a litle money, and ended up down 9 buyins and at $400. Today, I decided I was in a good mood, and I was able to concentrate pretty well, and I was able to make 4.5 buyins in 1k hands. I ran a little well, which helped as I had only 1 cooler, top set vs flush draw, and he hits on river. No biggie.
I am not sitting at about $445, and I feel like I can get my game going back well, so maybe I can finally hit NL25 soon. Almost a year of playing, and 215k hands, and still haven't hit Nl25 yet. Soon I hope it will happen.
Bad Beat: Hold'em Manager starts up and says "Stopping auto-import" when it just started, and I didn't even tell it to import, and it wasn't. Gonna check that up the holdem manager support or something. anyways I was thinking about cashing out, because bad beats were a bitch, or put myself on a 1 month self-ban. But I think the small heater really helped me out.
