but then i went back a little later and made $300 off the fish in 30 minutes.
the sites aren't going out to get you with bad beats... and the luck is random enough everywhere, however....
my advice is this:
Play where you're winning and leave when you start to lose a couple of sessions. Then after a significant while, go back to the old site and start winning again.
I played on riverbelle for 2 months straight because I was consitenetly winning. All of a sudden I lost 2 big sessions..broke close to even on the next one...then lost another. I withdraw most of my money and put it on bodog and empire....i'm winning again.
I think when you start to hit a losing streak..a change of scenery is in order. You have to get off of the mindset that you will always be outdrawn etc. etc. etc....
By playing on a new site, you allow your mind to break free from the shackles of previous bad beats. The new visual and audio cues from umm...UB, for instance, may help you forget all the money you just lost on party.
starting on a new poker site after a couple of bad sessions is like taking a fresh start for me.. i think to truely win at poker and enjoy it...you need to have an optismistic mindset. without that..you will make bad plays and "allow" the bad beats to come, in a manner of speaking.. I truely believe this. That is why i use this aformentioned tatic of switching sites if i'm on a losing streak. i will do anything and everything to try and get that optomistic mindset back.
i started going off on a tangent..but i hope everyone can use this advice to their benefit.

Last night playing the .25/.50 on full tilt I have built my stack to $68 in 30 minutes. I get QQ and raise the blind to $3 and get 2 callers. The flop is all low cards 2 suited I bet $5 one folds one calls. The turn is blank I bet $14 to put the remaining player all in He calls with a flush draw. Hits the flush on the river.
I build my stack back up to $64. I am in the SB all fold to me I have AQo. I raise to $3 BB calls. I hit a Q on the flop I bet the pot $9. BB calls. The turn is a 3. I bet another $10. BB goes all in making it another $10 for me to call. I feel like I am beat but I call. BB has pocket 3's. How do they justify chasing. I build it back up to $42 before I sign off 3 hours of play -$8. But I did get some bonus released and I 2 tabled playing a $20 SnG which I won so that was +$68 after I take out the buy in.
But they are making these same plays at the $100 NL tables too. How do you beat them?
I agree Ice I want to play with them. But they are taking my money and giving it to other players or they are hitting there hand then running.
