Cashed out - Bye for now

edited March 2011 in Poker Chat
Ok had a serious run on he HU sng's played over 3k games made just over a grand until last thursday. Ever since its been outdraw after outdraw. I keep telling myself its variance but ive played over 500 games since thursday and this keeps happening. The last straw was getting outdrawed on the river by kj, when i had aj,  j came on the flop and surprise surprise k came on the river.  

Not enjoying it anymore so perhaps I have overdosed lately. Will be studying for an exam over the next 6 weeks, and need to get away from poker.

    Skope my last 30 HU turbos fella I've taken a right kick-in.

    Not really through running that bad either, I've obv been out-drawn, but sucked out myself too......

    It's just the nature of these games I think, the game doesn't allow a big enough edge to be able to avoid bad runs....

    But yeh a 500 game sample is much bigger than my 30!!! lol

    They're so tilting too, I end up wanting to poke the other guy in the eye when he keeps beating me.

    GL Acegooner with your exam, maybe just the break you need and your come back refreshed and motivated again

    Dohhhh hit it spot on they are so tilting as you can get good runs in them but when the bad comes round it hits hard

    See you soon and GL the Arsenal tonight

    Thanks for the kind comments guys. Im ashamed to admit it but playing on sky and knowing that my opponents speak english(as opposed to other foreign based sites) has turned me into a bit of a monster.
     
    When I come back I have to work on my table manners, thats one of the other reasons im taking a break apart from that sky jinx button which seems to have been pressed.

    Still will be posting in the forum and I have gained entry to the leaguestars freeroll which will be my treat this month.

    Dohh for the record from my peak of around 1700 dollars profit I lost about 300 dollars just under 5 days.  My playing style hasnt changed until late last night when i was just pushing with pony. So I dont understand why consistent profits have turned, as I said its been outdraw city time and time again since last thursday.

    With regards to tilt, I think you can donk a lot more on cash tables.
