A totally dreadful few days. I think it is important to analyse exactly what is going wrong in order to arrest a slide like this. Certainly I am playing pretty awful poker. Impatient and too eager to get games finished... And I am also running badly. I hope those are the only two reasons, but I am starting to get the feeling the games are getting harder.. I only played one "fish" (as described by Sharkscope) in $570's in this 4 day strecthc. Are the efforts of the USA governaments in stopping players fund their accounts making a difference so quickly? The doomsday scenario where only good american players are left will mean it will be very hard to win. Maybe I'm just depressed after my worst week for manymonths...

Chin up Keith, playing that many HU's in a day is always going to be hard, you just need to stick a small streak of wins in there and the confidence will bolster.

Good luck Keith, you will deffo turn it around.

Great thread m8, your honesty is ...brutal. You'll work through a couple of bad sessions though, no problem. Love the weak lead bet!

[The Baron]

A nasty few days Keith.

Let's hope the donktards come out in their droves.

[ACE2M]

Just a downswing Keith.

Have you tried a different playing time? Try logging on at 9am our time and catching all the people taking punts to claw back their money. It works for me on the omaha tables.

Is day 13 (or should i call it day 12 part II if you are superstitious and don't do day 13's) actually the 13th Feb or the 13th day that you have played poker during this month.

If day 13 was yesterday how do you plan to make up the 60,000VPP required in just the last 7 days of Feb - thats going to be some cramming poker sessions and do you think this will affect your final profit figure in any way?

Day 13 os Feb 13th. Dunno why I didn't just put the date.

Still gonna struggle to make the 100,000 however.

Unlucky Keith, I expect playing at this level does take it out of you when you have a bad patch. 

Is a loss of 3k overall potentially not so bad at this level though? It's 'only' 6 or 7 games loss isn't it?  (I know the money is big, I'm talking the buy ins lost)

Good luck for the rest of the month, I hope you get it back

If you need someone to volunteer poking you with a sharp stick to keep you awake then let me know!!

Still 1 week left, never say never squire

[KingPoker]

Just a quick few questions to help me catch up?

1) Have you worked out your daily average VPP?
2) On average how many hours you playing a day?
3) Is the month worked out on dates or over a 4 week period?

Good luck!
