Why, honestly why, is it that on some days you just can't win a hand?

I don't know what it is about this site, but today i've been screwed over so many times, a little while ago I had a day where everyone was coming from stupidly far behind to catch up, it's insane... I guess that's internet poker for you, but it is a shame, you'd have thought after like 4 hours you'd be able to win at least one decent pot...

Happens to us all mate.  Just keep at it, add more tables and try not to get too tilted.  It all evens out in the end.

Well you must have won at least ONE pot recently as you won a Sng for £9 about 5mins ago!  

Oh and could you please keep the forum clear for players with legitimate moans & bad beats.  ;-))

Happens in life too. Some days you get out of bed and stub your toe on the bedroom door. You then burn your mouth on your cup of coffee and drop your toast buttered side down on the floor.

Then on your way to work you step in some dog mess and miss your bus.

Then when you're already running late every traffic light seems to be on red making you even later.

I could carry this on to cover the whole day but i'm depressing myself so I'll stop.

Have sympathy. Had 8 months of nothing going right ( OK I don't mean to depress you ) then it all seemed to get worse when a date I had went totally pear-shaped I got home totally flattened , entered a bounty hunter to take my mind off it and won . Then hit a good cashing streak and I've now just about got my losses back and looking to hit the front. Patience and persistance are essential part of the poker game.

to be honest your run bad is someone elses run good.

when you run good someone else is running bad.

i don't see what posting here is gonna achieve, people here want you to not be able to hit anything lol

I don't know, just a total lack of good spots, idiots calling with nothing... its just horrible to feel like you're playing so well and to keep getting screwed over

Pipunch

idiots calling with nothing? go play 5NL on Stars and then see how frustrating poker is when it's impossible to squeeze value out of anyone unless you're coolering them. we want morons to call with nothing because that's where our money comes from. so what if they get there sometimes.

On a 3-4 night of winning hands getting caught by turn or river (gurgle)...not the first time.....if your doing the raising dont commit too many chips....not a lot u can do if your all-inned by a worse hand and get caught....just tighten up...gl
