    Yeh AAv77 is a bad beat but it doesnt really matter weather it the 1st or 5th card that he hit the 7 on (if it was all in preflop) it just feels worse psychologically, like when a football team gets the winner in the 90th minute.

    Yup. When the going gets tough, & all that......

    The real test for a poker player is how he handles it when things go against him, when the wind & rain is in their face. That's the time when you really see their mettle.

    It's quite amazing how variance blows hot & cold, & no poker player on earth can avoid variance.

    Hurst just hang in there fella, things will get better for you.

    In Racing you get bad luck, jockeys riding poor, horse doesnt run to his potential, weather changes the ground drastically etc, its all stuff that can make you feel like you're going against the grain but what will finish you is if you tilt and veer wildly of your game what has been succesfull for you, say you lose all your bank and after a month break you come back well, and you wish you had the same bank to start firing your load again

    Hang in there brother, we are all here to help you get through the sticky patches, dont do anything stupid

    You should go out and do some photography, embrace the countryside, go and drink some new wine, enter a new club, go on an adventure

    freshenyourself up pal

    thanks

    Hi Hurst

    Just keep doing what your doing mate. You don't become a bad player over night this is just part of the game no one can avoid.  This is why Bankroll management is so so important.  Drop down a level and ride the storm out, it will change and you will be running  hot before you know.  Stick with it and good luck.
