Hey everyone,
I've been playing on sort of a full-time schedule this week and I was hoping to get some feedback on what kind of swings one should expect on a day to day basis. Monday I was riding high and tuesday I wanted to draw myself a hot bath and slit the backs of my knees.

$50NL FR
Mon: 4 Tables, 7 hours of play, won $240. Cards were not great, but they weren't bad. I think I only won one pot over $50. But I felt like I was picking my spots with x-ray vision, all of the small pots went my way.

Tue: 4 tables, 8 hours of play, lost $250. Started off the reverse of the previous day. Not losing big pots, just all of the small ones. And then I started losing the big pots. Lost 3 preflop all-ins with KK. Numerous two-outters, blah, blah, etc. $50 of this at the end of the day was certainly due to tilt.

Wed: 2 tables, 6 hours of play, won $100. Up and down day, still losing to miracle cards left and right. (by miracle cards I mean 2 outs, 1 card to come)

Today (Thu): 2-3 tables, 8 hours of play, won $190. I lost 2 buy-ins from flopping sets and not being able to get away from them before I was committed (totally my fault), and 2 buy-ins from getting all-in with AA preflop (once to KK and once to QJo). With losing $200 in just those 4 hands I'm suprised I was able to end up profitting that much on the day.

We'll see how tomorrow goes. The thing that's getting to me now is how often I lose big pots when I am an overwhelming favorite. I lose all of my big pairs to underpairs hitting their sets. And I don't slowplay anything. All of the money is either in preflop or on the flop (when the opponent doesn't yet have his set). And with two cards to come, I lose every time. I don't expect to win everytime in these situations, but losing them 9 out of 10 times is starting to get difficult to handle. Anyway...any thoughts you have on the day to day stuff would be much much appreciated...

I think playing for so many hours you can expect swings as big as this. Your luck sounds terrible atm and you're still winning, so all that means is that you should be winning a lot more and you will when your opponents stop hitting more 2 outers than is statistically probable. Basically, keep playing the way you are, your results are good, and it's likely they will only get better
