this is only a sample of my week.

AA loses to A9o (9 of hearts catches a flush on the board)
AA loses to AJ (flops a set after pf all-in)
99 loses to T8o (two overpairs on the board, T becomes highest kicker)

Yeah, my bankroll dropped by 80% in a week. NOICE!!!111!!!

I havent won a coinflip in over 9000 years imo

See f4zi's latest beat.

Right... maybe there should be a rule that you can't make a whine blog unless you're stuck at least a grand on the day .

i like that idea and loosing two sngs: fail

dafcnz saiz: MY ROLL WAS 10 DOLLARS!!!!

2 SnG's isnt 80% of my roll, these are just the last 2 SnG's I was in. And this is a tilt blog, what else do you expect? Won flips? Cmon boys, get with the program

(I'm not that mad, just pissed at the random factor in poker seemingly stacked against me in the past week)

FYI my roll was sitting at 85 at the beginning of the week, now at 20ish, so yeah about 80% lost. I know I'll make it back up, Im just mad because that means more games before I can move up in stakes (Obv I want to make some money out of poker at some point).

r u srs?

keep blaming your downswing on bad beats and you wont improve...
learn bankroll management imo.

Playing $5 sngs with $85 roll....awesome.

Listen to him. He speaks the truth

Why would I play anything lower? The 3 dollars ones have more rake (more than 10%, 3+.40 rather than 5+.50), I'm sure I'm a bit over my limit with 5$ SnGs but I do much better as an SnG player than as a Cash game player and anything lower seems like I'm not making any good money when I finish ITM. Outside of this week's downswing I make the final 3 in about 75% of my games.

Are you saying I shouldve folded AA preflop? What else could you blame these hands lost to? These are obviously coolers and bad beats, I haven't changed my game from the other SnGs where I do finish ITM... I'm not saying I play perfect poker, far from that, I still have TONS to learn, but I still play good for the level I'm at and usually outplay the other guys at my level.

I know I'm over my BR with 5$ SnGs but 3$ ones have more rake and I find it real easy to get a good ROI on the 5$ ones (outside of downswings like this one).

If no one cares about my bitching, why are you reading AND replying to it? No one forced you to listen to my bitching, I just had shitty hands and was tilted so I felt like posting a blog. It's not like I was the only one.

Thanks for the advice nonetheless, I'd really like to know how you think I should improve my game based on these hands though.

UPDATE: I made it back to 60ish bucks btw
