wtf am i doing wrong

[Ironside]

been at the table 10 minutes shoved queens previous round didnt get a call
then in sb i pick up a piar with 10k under average stack and big stack acts as policeman
125 people left here but if bb loses this hand he comes back into pack
last 12 comps i have busted in around the bubble or closing into the big moneyi have either got it in
with average or over stacks against hands i wither dominate or racing with
i just cant seem to win the vital hands

i am supposed to shove here i take it if it goes through i am back to average


not sure my pocket can take much more of the varaince of this and i am contenplating giving the game a break again

Uber standard shove.

There is an awful lot of variance in poker especially big field mtts. The harsh truth is you either man up and ride it out or you don't.

Basically just follow the instructions on the site. You have to provide a statement/proof of the bank a/c you plan to link to the account and proof of address. Then you have to wait for a verification code through the post and then you are able to play. Whole process takes around a fortnight.

Chin Up Iron.

It's a pretty brutal game when it's going like this, it's been said a thousand times but keep playing strong and one day it'll be your day mate

Until then, You Just Gotta #lovethegame

Good Luck
