I want my $700 back...

I really hate NL sometimes. I just got my ass handed to me playing three tables at Interpoker.

The best hand was when my AA lost to TT all in.... $700+ pot. A few hands later, the rest of my chips at that table were gone when some moron hit his 3 outer on me (his kicker was a 2 - yes, a 2) after we got all in with TP on the flop.

*sigh*

Back to the limit grind for me. NL is just way too annoying sometimes.

TP....

C'mon, you know you're better than that, letting the ugly side of variance get the better of you.

The NL ring games can get BRUTAL. I know that first hand. But it's a growing process, numbing yourself to those kinds of losses. You made the right plays each time and if you continue to do so, you'll get your $700 back 10-fold.

Downswings in NL can break you, I've dropped over half my online winnings in the past two months. Just now am I rebounding back a bit, but I do know that I am playing much better poker than I was two months ago.

Don't let those hands break you.
