Straights nightmare!!

Im having the worst poker day like ever!!

Im down 75$ on 10nl tables because of something like 5-6 straights hitting me on 2 pairs, sets and all decent hands. And worst of all they werent even readable straights. All big gappers!
And got beaten with set of queens by set of aces. This is so sick!

I know i should have moved down stakes before, but im down to 25$ total on my bankroll ...

Lesson learned the hard way

I learned a pretty good lesson yesterday.

First, when your stats program is not available. Don''t think you will outsmart your adversaries.

Second, when you start losing money, don't try to do smart things or to change your game to win it back at all cost.

I know, I all saw that in the different pro's videos.

When this happens, stop playing. Get a few hours break and apply real tag play.

Thats what I ...

my first milestone

Since I finished watching Tim's first 10 videos on 4/30 I can now say that I have doubled my money! I turned my $50 into $100 by playing basic ABC poker. I realize I might just be running good right now but either way, I'm pretty excited about it. Now my only question is do I move to bodog now? After buying the handgrabber I would only have $50 to start with over there. Or, ...

Here's how the majority of my sessions go.
slowly build up my stack with some nice controlled aggression
and get about 1 buy in up. Then either have a weak player
totally suck out on me or get coolered for a buy in and be back to square 1.
Or. just start my session run KK into AA and be down 1 buy in from the get go
slowly claw it back suffer cooler or ...
