My FullTilt days are way in the past, thank christ, the consistant bad beats on this site are sooooooo obvious that its not worth talking about, and just withdrawn from pokerstars for the last time. I recently started a mission on stars to build a 20K bankroll, ive played $100 a game comfortably profiting in the past, upward from that was unexplored teratory. 220 games in and i was down $50 playing $13 sit n gos of which my roi at these donkey stakes is 30%, so I shifted the shattered remains of my bankroll ($300) over to ipoker, and quelle f***ing surprise, 120 games in and im upto $1000, cos thats whats meant to happen!!!
90%!! of poker players lose, and random is seldom random, ever see the number board next to a roulette wheel? Always streaks. So to seperate personal mistakes with said rigged sites, one must focus inwards. Do i:
1)Play outside my bankroll? 5% per game,2% MTT
2)Do I give my opponents the implied odds to catch their outs and get paid off?
3)Play an aggressive game such that I will get called so often that I will statistically recieve more bad beats than a normal player?
Take this into consideration first and then frisbie your laptop out of the 3rd story of a block of flats (Im on my 3rd laptop).
My personal down fall pattern on Full Tilt and Stars is that im consistantly mildly unlucky which breaks me even for 5 days, win a few 1 day, then drop 20 buyins in a row through utter bullsh**. You could set your watch by it,every freakin' week. I said 'sick' so many times last month that im sick of saying SICK!
If it's staring you in the face that for whatever reason you are not winning, you need to change your venue or your past time. One thing I remember so clearly from fulltilt was that sinking gut feeling when you are dealt AA, that aint right!! Fulltilt and stars to me are purely a channel to watch high stake pros play.
