SKY YOU NEED TO TAKE NOTE OF HOW MANY PLAYERS ARE COMPLAINING ABOUT STUPID OUTDRAWS NOW!
Long as you keep putting it while ahead you should be fine in the long run, and don't focus on every hand that goes against you, as they will happen, sometimes in long streaks even. I've taken 10+ buyin drops when I've got my money in while well ahead and thats here, and at other sites. Poker if you are playing for profit is a game you play over the long stretch, not a short sprint.:)
Hand 2- just unlucky.
Hand 3- you've just called on the button in an unopened pot, getting raising. As played, you've bet well and made him pay for his draw.(should've check raised all in imo).Unfortunately for you, he's put half his stack in so is pot committed and is calling any bet on the turn. Your initial mistake of flatting on the button has got this guy chasing his flush and he hits it, but you got him to call off his stack without the odds to call.Keep doing that(making them pay for their draws) and you'll turn a healthy profit in the long run
Hand 4- you called a raise oop with J9 off.Just throw it away. Nice bet on the turn to find out where you are. Once called and the 3rd heart comes you check he bets,now is when you fold.As it is,you have no fold equity when shoving, so you need the best hand to win and a rivered two pair doesn't figure to be ahead with an obvious flush out there.
Just my thoughts. Hope this helps. If you get more hands like this,post them in the poker clinic thread and ask for peoples thoughts on how you played.
Has helped me a lot when other people critique your play.
Fold pre in hand 3
Hand 4 is terrible. Dont call 5x raises oop with j9o. And why on earth did you c/shove the river?
Also you should buy in full in cash games. Rather than moaning about your luck and berating other players maybe you should work on improving your game instead?

I mean those hands yhou just posted, you got a hand you are a coind flip in with 1010 vs KQ against a short stack that is going to shove that hand any day of the week. A hand you are SECOND favourite to win when the money goes in, and a hand you decided to limp in on the button and got beat by a bad call and a river suck out that happens. Not going to mention the all in shove with 89os to an UTG raise overly, but why? So standard, I'm not sure of the point of posting them, what is it? Are you going to post all the hands you win with to balance it out?
Just out of interest if all you guys think its all luck based, or its rigged, or the RNG isn't random etc, why do you still keep playing?? Are you expecting something from the posts other than support from a few other players? Just curious as see these type of posts on every poker site forum, even though on the same sites plenty of players are winning fine. How do yhou reason that? Are they just more lucky forever?
thanks hun xx
Erm you called your opponent an idiot so that would count as berating someone in most people's eyes. And yeah I know what area 51 is for, just for people to moan about how bad they run. I just thought I'd point out that in the cash hands the reason you lost money was your bad play, not bad luck.
