Default Running Bad

I just need to vent. If you've been following me as I play Monopoly you will know I've been running bad. I've had some sick beats lately so to make myself feel better I want to post some of them here in the beats and brag section. These are a few of the ones I lost when I was ahead. There's a few I've lost when I was behind but I was behind so they aren't beats. But, I'm so frustrated. I can't build a bankroll, if I can't win when I'm ahead and I can't suck-out when I'm behind.

The first one (AA vs J6s) is def my favorite

If it makes you feel any better last night I had all this happen to me

KK vs AA
JJ vs AA we both flop sets
JJ vs AA
JJ vs AA (yes 3 times)
AK vs AA
AK vs KK

All the $ in on a JhTh8c board with Q9 and three opponents each all in with JT, 88 and AhKh respectively (I lose obviously)

Needless to say after my biggest month ever in June, July did not start off too well

Thanks, Zy. I know this is just short term. But it's hard to see the long run when this happens over and over. The AA vs J6 is definitely a nice one, I agree. He catches his straight, but not the one he was chasing.
