after last week’s winning I thought I would break through and win a tournament.. turns out the poker gods had other things in mind. after a myriad of beats not even worth talking about and losing every coinflip possible, while bubbling every possible deep run, i am pretty beat up right now.
lucky for me, my bankroll can take it, but it’s incredibly ridiculous how i won 4/6 days last week and so far i have lost every single day this week. six in a row including the last day of last week amounts to a colossal loss, but there is not much I can do except keep grinding out. so far this week:
12 Cashes in 86 Tournaments (14%)
3 Final Tables (3.5%)
2nd/332 in a 4.4 PLO
8/180 in 2 different 12 turbos.
Other Cash finishes: 34th, 43rd, 32nd, 85th, 47th, 115th, 113th, and 130th and some other crappy cash
Notables: 0/4 after winning 1st table of double shootouts this week
10th in a final table only tourney(losing 4 all ins in a row)
Finishing last session losing six straight coinflips including busting the 5r.
So the short and thin of it, I have been getting absolutely mauled. Every push has had horrible timing, every caller has been lucky, and only great mental fortitude and hopefully a change of fortunes will send me in the right direction. Either way, I will devote the rest of this month to insanely playing tournaments for 50 hours a week, but if the losing streak continues for too long I will have to go back to cash games.
