WTF

ok so this is seriously getting ridiculous. i have come to the conclusion that one of three things has/ is happening:

the first being, everyone can see my cards...this would explain why none of my cbets work, why they always fold when i actually do have it.

the second is that poker is no longer profitable. the games definitely have gotten tougher, and realistically there will be a time when everyone truly knows how to play and games will not be beatable unless you get lucky in them. with all the training sites out there and some even for free maybe this is the first step in that....

the third (which i personally don't believe is the case, but u never know...) is that i don't know how to play poker. yes i have leaks, mainly having a too passive mindset in most spots where i don't have the nuts, or am scared to commit all of my chips, but unless everyone of my opponents knows this and puts me to the test every hand (see #1).

so that's the conclusion i've come too. i just don't get it lately. it's like i've never played before. i don't remember the last winning session i've had. (i've had a few break even/ win a couple $'s) but i mean truly good winning sessions. if things don't change very quickly i really don't know how long i can take this kind of downswing/variance much longer. i'm not whining i honestly just don't get it. the last part of january and the entire month of february has been the same thing.

it's obviously started to affect my psyche because i'm logging in now and wondering how and where it's coming from this session...AA vs KK, set over set, or suck out? i really really hope this stops very soon. it's getting really old, but maybe i'm actually on to something and poker just isn't worth it anymore?....

well enough of me whining, later and have a good week every1
