i cant win

[tarka]

Lost 10 buyins at 25nl in the past 6/7 days.
Doesn't matter what i do or how i do it i just cant win. All my sets crushed by draws all my AA/KK i get it in pre flop and get sucked out on. Flop full houses ow no there no good get runner runnered beat.
Then i get another set but wait theres a back door one way str8 on the board and the fish calls and im beat again.
But thats not a problem cause i get AA and get it in with someone with AK andddddd im beat again.
But wait on hold up i flopped another set but guess what i get beat again.
And i see the fishy fish with a mountain of chips in front of him and think maybe im doing this wrong the fish just limp in everyhand call any raise with any two cards and win stay in all the way and suck out.
Just finished a session with a fish who had $360 in front of him at $25nl. His vpip was 94% over 400 hands. He took around $90 off me, he crushed me. Im sat there thinking my tighter style will pay off against him but hell no just beat after after beat. Sets crushed, TPTK crushed.
I cant believe how bad its been it got to the point when i get a good hand i just didnt want to put any more money in the pot cause im 100% sure im just gonna sucked out on yet again.

Waiting for the upswing that i know will never come cause in all the time playing poker i've never had an upswing that could rival how bad its been over the past week.

But wait tarka the fish are how you make money at poker.
F**K no there not they get rewarded for horrendous play and i get to sit there and suck d**k.

And to make matters worse im probaly gonna have to move back down to 10nl ow the joyyyyys. Back down to crap stakes again.

People go on sick rushes at craps and roullette too. You don't see the casinos crying about it, do you? No, they just smile and invite those players to come again in the future.

You can win. Just step back, stay calm, play within your bankroll. No shame in moving down. It's just bb's.

Yeah that swings are so annoying... I had about 30k hands breakeven stretch this summer due to suckouts and bad luck, then it seemed to finish and I cashed out and moved to FullTilt...

And now across 15k hands I'm actually loosing about 2 buyings but thanks to rakeback/bonuses I'm still up a 100$. It just looks soo strange, I had numerous times hitting +150$ due to bonus clearance or successful allin and boom! here comes a couple of fckn suckouts and I have to grind back again 8-(

It bugs me every day... just imagine there were no at least a couple of suckouts (I have tens of them already) and I would have won 2x much money than now

Thanx for the kind words guys.
I can be a cynical git when im annoyed as it shows in my post.
Played a little today up just under a buyin.

poker is a game of skill mixed with the luck. If you are the top 60 percent of skilled players
you will make money in poker. You cant control the luck outs......you know how it goes. THats why you play within your bankroll. Overextending it can make u go bankrupt due to bad swings

Yeah i think you need to step away from the computer the next time you get a couple of bad beats and just getting coolered because we can tell even from your writing you probably go on major tilt!

If a fish is owning your soul i think its best just to leave and find another table, sometimes thats all it takes as it seems nothing can go right at that table! Hunt for more fish and away you go again. Don't think of it as you are unlucky or the fish is playing better then you because there not. If your getting your money in good thats all you can do and will even out eventually.

When you said you don't even want to put money into pots now with big hands because you feel you will get sucked out on i think thats a huge mistake, you need to be confident in every move you make. Good luck at the comeback i'm sure you'll go on a heater soon and be back in here telling us all about it

When i posted this it was after 6/7 days of just brutal beats i was pissed. Even if im majorly annoyed i still wont start doing dumb stuff like shoving atc.
If i take a few beat in a session im not happy about it but im not gonna start doing dumb stuff.


Thanx for posting though
