so, that got me a bit anoyed as it was about the first chance i got to make some money today, and i went on losing a few more all ins very quickly, i stopped playing straight after the last one, and I'm just wondering if I made poor decisions on these or if its just bad luck?

hand 2: (i think this one was pretty tilty, but this is against the same fish who called with TT in the other hand, so i thought it was pretty possible she had a straight or even just some pair... after all he chucked it all in with TT on a KJ board?)

every hand played perfectly. if u keep playing the way u are u will naturally win these back and go further

always put your money in in these situations, well at least hand 2/3

full ring

Just when you think it can't get any worse, it will.

Read up on Mike Caro's "threshold of pain" at poker1.com

There is so much truth in this and it has saved me tons when the cards go bad.
