Few days ago i was whining in what a awful spot i was with 8100$ bankroll, after few days of playing putting a lot of effort and playing long hours i managed to lose 2K more, and now my br is 6000$, which means i will have to drop stakes soon.... This is really dissapointing and depressing, it seems the more effort i put the more i lose. Today was awful i lost 1300$, it was some sick day from the beggining of the morrning. I started of my session being down in 10 hands:

http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/172350
Then everything got worse, i got few more coolers, after which i started tilting but somehow won some money back, then i went to the university. After university i was calm again and ready to win some money back and then i hit a "FULLHOUSE" of bad beats, cold decks and setups.
Now i am sitting with my 6K left, playing some crappy software, which was suppose to be soft(but which is actually full of regulars that share the fish and fishies are dying fast), feeling very gloomy and confused not knowing what should i do next. Should i move back to UB? Should i search for some other software or should i stick to partypoker or should i cashout what i have left from my 16K. Lossing 10K$ in 3month is really depressing espeacially for Lithuanian.
I really hope i will get back on feet somehow and i will be able not to drop down stakes, but at the moment i really sad and confused, because i put so much effort and time past monthes and all i got was stress.
I probobly should take some time off poker, but i know that tommorow morning my mindset will be possitive again and i will be calm again and ready to play, so i might give a last try before dropping down stakes.
Sometimes it's hard to express yourself, the way you feel when you play 8 hours a day, hoping to win some money back and you end up lossing more.
Besides Poker:
Today i read Cosmo's blog and he mentioned new broodwar ladder, i immediately went there and lost 4 games in a row , but it was fun anyway.
Damn it sucks to be me since i am lossing at everything
Peace,
Arvydas

you should note all the regulars and then all the others are donks
easier that way

also table selection is very important at pp i think
some tables are significantly harder than others

Tough times, i feel you :/

It prolly wont help u to hear that i lost (slightly) more than u in last 3 day, but at least u are not alone. But yea I know it is a different thing to lose a lot in a 3-days-long period and to be down the same amount in much longer period like 3 months, especially if u put in a lot of hours. I felt similarly in the end of December 2006 after constantly losing the past 2 months and being down from like 11k to about 3.5k.

And I actually think it is a good idea for you to move down to NL100 immediately eventhough ur BR might still be enough for NL200. The game is easier, the money dont bother u that much and it usually boosts ur confidence. And you can move back up after 2 good days.

I wish u best of luck in poker.

there is a light at the end of the tunnel... (but sometimes the tunnel is long and deep as hell)

Move up and win 3months worth back in 1 day or lose it all.

Or just start playing donkaments for a week or something, always helps me relax just playing tournaments.

Table selection Anon, ive had run like that and they wont end unless you change something, either the way you play itself like finding leaks or having better table selection, but more importantly your approach of the game MUST change, ive strengten my tilt resistance a lot by only changing the way i think about poker.

The results are meaningless, who care if ur down 10k... if you were up 10k and u should have 26k.. u would hit this in the next 6 months or more... so ur not down, ur only experiencing the inevitable "swing back" of luck... now or later u were going to have 3 loosing months so its ok, just chill and keep playing.
