It's unfathomable! Limit, NL, MTT's.....it doesn't matter. AK.....LOSE! Either to a set or run it into Aces. Flush draw.....LOSE! Either you miss, you hit and the board pairs, or someone else has a bigger flush. I haven't hit a flush and won this month yet. Maniacs play every hand and always have a monster against you.

WHO RUNS INTO A GODDAMN MONSTER EVERY 25 HANDS???

Just from tonight's late session. Only 150 hands total and all these.....
1 - AKs vs maniac (65/15). He calls a c-bet with 44 and hits a boat on the turn. Then of course I river the backdoor flush. He played every hand and won most of them.

2 - I SOOO would have pushed this flop. THANK GOD the flush DIDN'T hit.

3 - HU pot. Of course I'm flush over flushed

4 - AK vs 35/15/35 OTB. Constantly running AK into Aces lately. Was starting to tilt a bit at this point. I knew I didn't beat anything, but still called the river. Obvious the case Ace was gonna hit?

5 - Flop 2 pair against another calling station in a HU pot. Of course he has the set.

Who's starting to notice the tilt?

6 - Flop a flush draw, but again I'm drawing dead to a better draw.

MTT today. I lasted 16 hands. Flopped FD+2 Overs in a HU pot. Any doubt what he flopped?

Limit session today. Same crap. Read my mock post in the limit section
forum/viewtopic.php?t=22753

Limit session last night. Same thing.

Before that same crap. Check my journal.

I haven't had a solid winning session (more than $50) since January 24th. That's about 25 sessions. Since then, I am in negative profit with Two Pair, Straights, and Flushes. I've only won 40% of shown down hands - or 4x total - with these hands. I am running negative with AA, QQ, and TT as well. Take away sets and I'm running negative with KK and JJ as well.
AA = 50% over 18 hands. Mostly NL because I've only had AA 2x in last 1500 Limit hands.
TT = 2 win in 14x. This is combining Limit and NL which I play Tens very differently.
I have only won more than $20 in a pot twice in over 1500 NL hands this month.

How is this even possible??? I have completely had it!!!

So I sit down again to start chasing. Not because I'm smart, but because I'm still steaming and won't be able to sleep unless I end on a better note. I only lasted about 40 hands and this is what I see.....

My PT didn't pick this up because I hadn't posted yet, but as soon as I sit down I see a 3-way all-in on a [9c][8s] flop.
Player 1 [5s]
Player 2 [8h]
Player 3 [8d]
Player 1 hits his flush and takes it.

Other table there is this hand less than 1 orbit in. Another 3-way all-in....
One of the SICKEST hands I've ever seen
http://www.pokerhand.org/?806986
AQ vs AQ vs 44 on a QQ44 board.

Not to worry though. I doubled up one of the shorties immediately on the next hand when his AJ beat my JJ. Then I actually won a hand by flush over flushing another shortie, but doubled up another shortie when my KJ lost to his QJ on a J9x board. Runner runner straight for him. Then I got up and left.

Is this all about keeping rake high after losing players?

Positive: I ran the free $10 that AP gave me up to $21 playing blackjack, then to $35 playing $10 PL Omaha H/L. So now I can sleep tonight, but I may just e-mail Full Tilt in the morning, forfeit the rest of the bonus, tell them to go to hell and mail me a check. I've dropped 25% ($400) of my bankroll since 1/24. It's starting to feel -EV to keep the bonus going at this point.
