worst streak ever

edited July 2015 in The Poker Clinic
played poker at 5 sites now for over 10 years and have to say sky is the streakiest place I have ever played 3 weeks ago check stats to verify I played roughly 20 tournies and placed in about 15 winning 3 last tabel4 times this last 2 weeks never placed never won a bounty kk vs 93 all in gets beat now all the haters out there gonna say yeah that's poker but anyone who plays often enough sees patterns, so yes the other week I may have had luck but this week I have bad luck so how is it random? yes we all know occasionally aa will get beat by 72 os but when ur pp has lost to every pp it comes up against the randomness seems to be ridiulous

    From looking at your posting history I am surprised you still play on skypoker when you appear to doubt the integrity of hands. When you have played as long as you have I would have thought that you would understand the variance and swings a bit more of poker. Getting ITM in 15/20 tournaments is extremely impressive and you would have run above expectations to do that. Then you had a run where you ran below expecatations it seems. Overall you would have run in line with expectations. It is easy to assume when you win you were playing amazing yet when you lose its down to the site. 

    Your posting history seems to always question the site, why dont you post some hands (can be winning and losing ones) and see if you have any areas of improvement. I think that would be a better use of your time than just assuming your playing perfect and it must be the sites fault that you lose hands.

    You can make your own conclusions about Sky, all I can provide you with is evidence of the type of runouts that get dealt on this site in order to try and lure bad players into stacking off to generate lot$ of rake $$$...

    These are all within the last 30 minutes.

    Good morning Fiddlyfish.
    Try playing the £2.20 @2.20 deepstack, never has anyone suffered a bad beat.
    All the best.

    Sky favours screen names that work with  TV.Ive seen many a player go broke down to choice of screen name.

    A commentator reviewing a hand , saying 'my bank roll'....see how this doesnt work?

    Look up skys top 10 all time winners, All the names are proper catchy. 

    Which reminds me , Sky promised me they would look into changing my screen name 2 yrs ago , Ive heard nowt since.....Sky ? Can you sort it please ?

    Haven't spent a vast amount of time looking at the hands but they seem fairly standard poker hands.

    Hi, Yes you did run pretty bad no doubts about that!!

    Over the last month though it does seem like you have had about even luck over all. It does seem to go in massive swings, 15 out of 20 tournements cashed, followed by totally the opposite swing.

    Poker is a cruel game, I had a similar run for a month and could not win a hand no matter what the cards were.
    I lost £500 that month, I'm waiting for the up swing.......
    I guess it is just luck, It is a bitter pill to swallow when youre running bad, chin up and keep playing your A game.  As long as you are good at Bank roll managment you will live to fight another day and it will even out.

    I think the hard part is losing when you know you were a massive favorite and that happeneing time after time. I'm sure even the best pro's have a hard time dealing with that, when you have mastered that you will be reasdy for the next level.....

    good luck and enjoy the game
