Navuta, you can say it all day, but your not gonna quit playing poker ever:rofl:, its in your blood to play competitive poker, and that is why your a poker player for life. From what i have observed so far, you are always playing at carbon or some other merge brand type site. Try playing at a cake network site, or FT, maybe PS. Often times your luck may be horrible at one site, but if you switch over to another site, your getting great cards:Angel_anim: Dont say i didnt tell ya. It really works, at least for me.

I dont think you should quit,, but maybe quit for the day take a break. I usually play video games when I am losing or going on tilt. nothing like taking frustrations out on noobs on the battlefield!!

True... I forgot about this.
I should be trying other sites, the problem is that I dont have money on the other sites, I need to hunt some private freerolls before building a bankroll over there. Thanks for the info! I hope I can cope with all this frustrations I had today.
Thank u!

To flop nothing is much better than to flop everything and finish with the second best hand after the river. Your luck seems bad, but not worst.
To take a break and change the network was two decent advices You have heard in this tread.
And when You will register to other network, try to stay away from any bonus: they say it brings bad luck. Better put a horseshoe on the wall near monitor:)

Lol...
Thanks.
Im little too dramatic sometimes. Its not good for me, I get stressed, and fell bad, nausea, fell like im a bad player and everything.
In the end is just a question of pacience.
If u have 98% of winning a hand and a donkey call us and u loose, it is bad luck, I must play slow poker, to see the river so I can be 100% sure I will win that hand, must be my strategy right now to overcome my bad luck!

Hope your bad luck streak comes to an end soon. If you are as addicted as most of us, quitting poker for good isn't even really an option. Definitely take a break if you're feeling burned out; try a different site or different game (blackjack maybe?).

I recommend taking a break. If you're able, try to take a week off and maybe you'll come back refreshed and confident.
If you can't take a break, maybe you can stick to freerolls for a little while until your luck gets a little better and you no longer feel tired of poker.

bugz bunny will advise u on what to do

No u shouldn't quit poker. You should stop playing for awhile. Til things settle down. Go play some play money games for a few days and then go back to playing for real.

It sounds like you have been playing at fulltilt. LOL I've expierence the same
thing u have expierenced lol. Playing poker is one aspect of the online gaming of poker and playing bingo is the other.

Trying getting your money in with low suited connectors. 56of club 78 or diamonds etc and so on. Other connectors that arent suited like J10 J9 etc and stuff use ur imagination.

SOunds like ur a Nit also lol. Me to i like to get it in when i have the goods.
but in ur case since ur not getting the nuts on the flop and stuff. You should
check and no bet much check calling with ur losing is the best bet. IF they raise u all in and u dont' have the nuts or the best pots odds don't call. lol

Avoid going all in preflop with KK or AK you should sometimes raise with those and sometimes not with AK but with KK it is a must raise and if u c a flop and c an Ace u must bet strong no matter what cuzz ur hand is strong. AK
don't over value those a lot. If your going all in preflop with AK and ur not the low chip stack den u are doing something wrong.

YOu must bet strong to get them to fold if u don't they will call u alll day.

O yeah watch out for slot players players who call no matter what cards they have but just going by the slots. Those u should avoid and not play against them cuzz they are more expeiernce bingo players than u.

Suggestion of a game to play for you is to play pot limit.

IF you haven't already i suggest u get a calculator to help u out.

bugzbunny suggest u google to find a calculator and buy it and use it to ur
advantage it will tell u when to call when to fold.

signed bugzbunny

this will help u out and improve ur game

Heave my advice lol CINZINNATI KIDD at ft

Thanks Bugz.. nice suggestions.
I think I will need to be ivem more tight now that my luck is bad..
And not iven beting with KK.
I need only to play real monster hands AK up.. I´ve folded 99 so many times already. I think TT should not deserve a call. JJ 3x BB maybe. QQ 4X BB maybe. KK 5x BB maybe.. and not going All in with AA.. just raising 6X BB max.
So, I have 5 hands to play out of more than 120...
I hope this strategy works.:boxing_smiley:

I think one saying rings true - all things in moderation.

This is a very addictive lifestyle that most of us live by. I mean, rarely a day goes by where the majority of us aren't hunting down a game, whether it be a buy in MTT, SNG, cash game, live, private freeroll, or donkest (if you can differentiate the two!) It's like we need that to call it a day.

Now, switch gears and think about your job for a minute. When you're having a bad day, all you want to do is leave. Get the hell out of there and tell off your boss as you do it. Even when you're having a good day, you'd rather not be there, right? Why do you think you get days off? To refresh your brain AND your body so you can...........wait for it.........perform up to your expectations.

Apply that logic at this game. Taking some time off - whether a month or even one night - can be great at clearing your head and recharging your system. It's a crucial element that will allow you to perform and add to your bankroll.

haha that happens to the best of us...i barely ever win with AA...it is like the worst hand for me when im in a tournament...it seems that that is the hand that always gets me out of a tournament and im sick of it...but i still just keep playing becuase i like poker and it is not worth giving up just becuase i get screwed out on AA on some of the tournaments or tables that i play in

i know exactly how you feel. my luck is so bad its not even funny, i run bad every single time no matter what the situation or what kind of hand i have it doesnt matter. i have dumped over 2 grand on full tilt poker and have nothing to show for it. i am not giving up though because i know sooner or later my big break and luck streak will happen!

Take a break, then come back refreshed. I take breaks when the cards are running bad. I play more when running good. "You got to know when to holdem, know when to foldem, know when to walk away, know when to run". Great song and solid advice. JMHO. X :seeya:
