Going and playing really well in Primo last night until -----
Laying about 12th outa 40 odd left pick up AK
Raise 3x - big stack and one of the leaders reraises and puts me all in - I call he shows AJ
Flop 8 7 k
weehee I thought - double up and into top 3
Turn 10
River 9
Well gutted as playing well - I know that bad beats happen and I could do no more and I shouldnt be hard on myself as i didnt really do anything wrong but in the last month or so I have just about blown a 3rd of the bankroll that I had built uop since christmass by constantly losing when well ahead - If this was just an isolated cae I would not be worried and I know all about variance etc etc. but i just canot get my head around it.
Just a little rant as a bit down at the mo and need to get some of the frustration out as I know most (not all) of the time I am doing nothing wrong and after analysing pasthands am not doing anything different.
I appreciate that some will sympathise (kirbs JJ) to name but two who are having similar probs and will just state variance , take a break etc but I have one question to ask and that is - Has anyone who maybe playing on my table noticed anything that I mightt be doing differently that i wasnt doing before. MrB might be able to help as he aleways seems to be on my table at some time and nicking my chips lol.
sorry to waffle on guys. I didnt sit down purposely to write this it just came out

Hi Jeff,
if you look back a few pages you will see my posting about my bad run and what I did to turn it around. The sum up of it was yes I was having the same thing happen but i had to also expect I needed to take a hard look at any other factors i.e. anything outside poker and then except where my weakness are. It would be unfair of me to comment on any areas of your play because I am only seeing my side of it i.e. I dont know what you are holding but the only thing I will say is that your posting does now make more sence as I feel a bit of the zing sparkle what ever you want to call it is down on your game which I see as just a small lack of confidance. So easy to fix and I could also be very far off the mark as trying to get any reads with online poker is just more like looking for micro hints.
Keep with your game and do yourself a favour take a few minutes out look back at all your postings of your cashes!
