Running Cold

[ND1991]

September and October have been horrible months for me. I am running plain cold right now.

Just an example from a recent 6-man SNG. The first one hurt bad, but I kept playing solid poker. The second was a kick to the groin, and the third was the knockout punch.

Hand 1: Money in good post flop against a 5 outer.

Hand 2: Money in good pre flop against a 3 outer.

Hand 3: Money in good pre flop against a 2 outer.

Wow, I read that hand history. That is BRUTAL. That is why I am not really too interested in online poker. The same thing happens to me, incredibly unlikely outs getting hit frequently. But, many would just say "that's poker".

Hand history shows you were putting your money in good each time which is satisfying.
looks that the deck is running cold, not you... and some say in the long run you shall come up as a winner. i do buy that bluff

Good Luck out there Neil!

That's why I can't play donkaments. I'd go poo flinging tilt crazy. In cash games I'll take a beat then it's over and I'm on to the next hand.
