    Now that is an interesting remark. Quite frankly in my experience yes. BUT. It does work both ways. There will be players here and on other sites , with big rolls that play very well, that you assume are great, but are going through massive positive variance too. It only takes a shift of a couple of percent. The mistake some people make is to confuse variance with skill and attitude/ego/personality. If you look at Cole South's recent downswing you may start to understand why. The guy is a maths genius that can understand the game significantly better than almost everyone on the planet. ( sharing h.h's also useful too, yet still 5.5m downswing).  Also research Archie Karras. Further reading that may prove useful  could be The Luck Factor by Richard Wiseman. Further to that keep reading up on the game. Maybe opt for more pot control. Forget ego. Don't ram hands where you may well be a marginal favourite only.
    Drop stakes a while maybe ? It's not you though, it's the nature of the game. If you are resolute and honest with yourself things can only get better in time. You are not cursed.
    I've just looked at those hands and some, it's fair to say , you did not play optimally btw.
    Review them on Texas hold'em odds calculator. u find on google free and no download. A reasonable review strategy tool. Beats moaning. Better luck in future nonetheless. I hope you have found some of  this useful.
