Lost to much money now, to many bad beats, to much bad luck. Just played my last DYM, was card dead all the way through hit AK, and ran it into AA.

People can say ye ye whatever, i'm just another loser.

But poker has finally took it's toll on me, will only be playing freerolls from now on, but shall stick around the forums.

P.S Also came to the point where i was scared to get involved in hand sbecause i thought it would end up in a bad beat.

    It's all about confidence and BRManagement. I have had bad spells but sticking to my 5% rule I have never gone bust and finally I have got to a triple figure BR. Take care, take a break, read up, and come back all guns firing.

    Don't give up Hartshorn .... today I cashed in 3 DYMs, thought I was Phil Ivey.  10 Minutes ago, busted out of the £15k Primo with my AA ... chap hit 2 pair on the river.  Not sure why he called my three big raises though ... but still .. up 1 minute, down to earth with a bump the next.  Take a short break ... and come back refreshed.

    This is when a break is needed! Hopefully u can come back refreshed and make the correct decisions again. Confidence is a massive part of playing poker correctly.

    Hi Hartshorn

    Take a bit of a break, maybe a week or something, and come back and see how you feel.  If you have no confidence there is no point in playing as you will struggle to make the right plays, and more importantly you wont even enjoy playing the game.

    Hope you're back to enjoying your poker soon mate

    Dude! i did the same thing a few weeks ago buddy, when it get's on top like this you make the wrong calls an every hand you lose is or seems like a bad beat. The important thing here is your not enjoying it an your confidence seems shattered. My advice as i have just gone through it is take a break for a few days. I did, my bankroll was very limited and down to the last nickels an dimes so to speak. Had a few days off where i didn't think about poker came back an raring to go. Bankroll a tenner from 3 figures now! it does help ;).

    When you comeback refreshed you will know how to handle this better and experience will stand you in good stead! i started to wobble a few nights ago and with the last experience i just logged off for 24 hrs an never gave poker a thought. You are a good player buddy we shared a table the other night an saw how good you are!!! take a break chill an comeback an kick a s s again ;)

    Am i right in thinking you are an orfordite hartshorn?

    If so, then you must ignore all our advice about taking a break, and make sure you are fit and ready for tuesday night and the tko comeback.  if i am mistaken and you are a tikay man, then the above comments stand and you should refrain from playing for at least 3 weeks ;)

    Then I firmly stand by the advise i originally administered! You simply must take a full month away from the sky poker tables, and if you cannot do that, then i would insist that you definitely take tuesday nights off at the very least.

    Harts I love reading your posts they make me laugh!! I'm not laughing at ya but kinda with ya, theyre so brutally honest and I can almost see you getting peed off! Like reading a good book. lol

    If it was allowed on this site I'd donk a tenner off to ya just so that they keep coming! It can't KEEP happening!! I remember I used to be scared to enter a pot just incase I got a bad beat, its a horrible feeling int it.

    Just f k it off, play loose, splash it about abit, make some moves, fortune favours the brave!

    Plz dnt quit tho and keep on posting lol!

    DOHH
