    Hi webby.

    Yes, a sick way to lose, but 2-2 is always vulnerable, & you were only about 50-50 to win from the outset - you just lost the hard way!

    If you plan to take a few days break - & that's probably a good idea - try & re-assess how you look at poker.

    The whole idea of the game is that it's just that - a game - & if it gets to you, & upsets you when you take a beat, you are not going to enjoy the game as much as you should.

    Any hand can lose to any hand - & frequently does - but equally, any hand can beat any hand. It's that glorious uncertainty that gives us the buzz.

    You have, say, Aces, & get an all-in Caller - YES! - but you still watch every card fall with baited breath, especially when the guy who's showed flops a pair & a flush draw......

    It cuts both ways, too - we've all got in in behind & sucked out.

    Good luck fella. This game will test your character.

    Yes take a break... best thing you can do when having a bad spell, but ask yourself are you getting your money in infront? You say on here you are.. look through your exit hands/damaging hands, did you play it right? If the answer is yes then you know your doing nothing wrong and come back to it with a more positive thinking... if the answer is no, then go and look at some tips/strategys, find out what your doing wrong etc.. and try again.

     Good luck

    Just a horrible thing in poker call 'Variance' ewwww ... When sky 1st started running the £500 d/s (22 buyin) trnys i got off to a great start, i think i won it 4 or 5 times in the 1st 20 days, I also won the open amongst other trnys, i was running so hot and had doubled my 2 yr profit in a month... Now a month down the line i have had 1 final table in the same tournament in about 2 weeks... My graph is on a sharp downslope atm, but as far as i know i am doing exactly what I was doing before... I used to hit set after set, but now i honestly cant remember the last time iv flopped a set... I'm pondering whether to take a break for 2 or 3 days but i think ill just play through it.

    sharkscope is for mtt's and sit n gos only...players like gerrard are big time cash players so those statistics are pointless...plus i agree with benny you shouldnt really be posting other peoples stats! not cool mate!

    Webby,

    I'm sure you are a fine player - but Sharkscope will not confirm this one way or the other.

    Sharkscope does not include Cash Games, nor does it include, for example, results of Sky Poker's biggest scheduled buy-in Torney, the Sunday Night Deepstack Showdown.

    I can produce 4 totally different results for myself simply by altering the search parameters. They are all right - & all wrong.

    WEBBY - please remove the Sharkscope Stats of those players immediately. Leave mine up if you wish, I really don't mind, but you MUST remove/Edit out the other players data.

    MODS - Please remove the Sharkscope Stats of the Players immediately if WEBBY does not do so. Leave mine there if you wish, but it's wholly, 100% improper to publish Players Data, & Sharkscope do not allow this either.

    Had my Aces cracked eight times in one day last week, not just here I must add. It happens, that's all that I can say. Just shrug it off.

    And, by the way, posting other people's stats is not good practice.

    Most probably, if not definitely a breach of Sharkscope's term of use, copying/publishing results on other sites.

    Maybe Sky should now put in place a clear Community rule making it unambiguous to all concerned that Sharkscope stat's should not be published on this forum.

    Generally as we all should know, statistics are open to interpretation and can be manipulated to show any number of results.

    My own results are poor on Sharkscope, yet I know I have made £100+ profit on cash games overall.

    Webby enjoy the break, read some forums (tk's other forum is good) and chill out and come back firing on all cylinders.

    sorry guys only just got back on the computer, didnt realise it needed deleting a.s.a.p

    i did say in the post i hoped nobody would mind, obviously my mistake and i apologise for putting the stats up.

    benny why would i think it is clever? its not like i did it on a purpose to annoy people!!

    and also sharkscope is there for people to look at stats so if people dont like people looking at stats then maybe they shouldnt be on sharkscope?

    i was only trying to get tikay's opinion on the matter with a couple of examples and didnt realise it would cause WW3!

    sorry who ever i upset by doing this

    We know you intended no harm WEBBY, but Sharkscope Stats of other Players must NEVER be put up. How do you think that guy who was shown to be (probably wrongly) losing all that money will feel, now?

    And Sharkscope Terms & Conditions do not allow this.

    It was not done intentionally, we know that, let's just move on. The Mods have Edited it out now.

    Put your own Stats up by all means, & it seems I'm fair game, which is fair enough,  - I don't mind that - but not other Players Stats, please.

    Next case!
