    That is quite possibly the longest single sentence I have ever seen. Impressive stuff.

    When do we think we'll get the first bad beat post from misterpj in here? I'm going for Thursday at 14:13.

    As for the OP, when the fun stops...

    Either play through the pain and ride out your bad run or take a break.
    It will turn eventually gl

    If you post some standard hands (not bad beats) where you think you're making 'the right play' people will help you out and point you in the right direction

    You need to look into variance my man... Even the best players can have a huge downswing or break even stretch (Big downswings harder on sky due to field sizes).

    I have a feeling you wont be playing close to optimal and that will be making the situation worse. This once sentence alone "having to force every hand going literally to try catch a break" tells me everything I need to know.

    Search Danny Cotton on Skype and I will happily sit and rail you for an hour and give you a list of leaks you need to work on... from there its down to you.



    That is the pic you are looking for on skype.

    Now if you don't add me I will assume you will not be posting anymore nonsense as you decided not to work on getting better.

    You take the blue pill, the story ends; you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe.

    You take the red pill, you stay in Wonderland and I show you how deep the variance hole goes.

    I wasn't sure; hence the question mark; I do now, no worries.

    Ok so reading this makes it look like you only want action from good players with strong holdings.

    Why would you not want the donks calling your bets or betting into you with trash?. Surely this is exactly what we want if making a profit is why we play.

    Also the AK you speak of is not the all conquering hand that you seem to think it is so perhaps you need to re evaluate your expectations especially post flop or multiway.

    There's always the option of not playing for a while, I'm currently on day 3 of a short break because I felt I was getting tilted, I may play later tonight or I may not play til Friday.

    Fresh perspective can help massively as can going right back to basics. Oh and DON'T pass up the offer of @Itsover4u , that really will help you.

    Have a great day and good luck.

    The only way to stop this is to either;

    Fold,

    Raise bigger

    or

    Play higher where raises are respected



    Please let us know how it goes. Good luck

    You should embrace people calling raises with trash long term it can only be good
    You thinking short term and rage tilting ain't gonna help at all, you need to chill mate

    Do you care to tell us why you have not taken a free offer of help from a proven winning player (Free of charge) and are still posting complaining.

    Help yourself or stop posting.

    Honestly I have zero sympathy for losing players who moan like you.

    Offer withdrawn

    I want to know why you think it would change just because you posted on here @PikeyDave ?

    .....it's still the same RNG, and does just that, as it has done since the start of SKYPoker.

    Either deal with it, or try and improve, particularly the Mental side of your Game (there are good books and free online help out there. You really should have taken up Danny's offer @Itsover4u ........but definitely remember the times YOU get lucky on the River, because we all do. :)

    GOOD LUCK

    Wouldn't pay much attention, everyone knows how he plays. Raises a lot of hands usually poor ones, wins with them and not a peep, loses against them kind of hand he usually plays and cries. Will call out a player for playing a similar hand he literally just played

    The fact help was offered and not taken just shows he thinks he's better than he is and can't accept losing

    maybe he/she just doesnt use skype...or they freak out at the thought of facing reality or something like that....lotsa reasons why not adding someone on skype, including the one you suggested o/c.

    imo the problem the person is having is not understanding the impact of luck or the variance (as we like to call it) and the notion of what skill is......imo all us mere mortals struggle with those 2 concepts......

    when we win we think "skill" instead of "sh it look how lucky i was hitting all them draws, sucking out or holding up" and when we lose we think bad luck, instead of " why did I make that play, he clearly had me beat when he reraised that river"

    ps. nae wonder I usually keep my thoughts to myself, sometimes i gibber a lotta fish.
