So Much For A Decent Month

After Friday I would have been happy to settle for winning one of every five pair over pair, AK vs Ace-rag AIPF, or 95/5 turn spots. Unfortunately that's asking far too much. Hell, running good for me is having my AIEV line somewhere in the vicinity of my actual winnings, instead of 2ptBB+ below. The worst part is that it's not like I have run passably for any sort of stretch since very early 2010. That's 2 million+ hands ago.

At any rate, Saturday was one of the worst poker days I've ever had. I was one outed twice, the first of which being of the perfect perfect (2 out turn, 1 out river to quads) variety where bottom pair was the nuts against a set. To make matters worse, I spent the last 6 hours of Sunday night playing with a megawhale at 3/6 who blew off >$10k. I was up a small amount on him for a bit. But needless to say AK vs KT on AAJx is no good for $1.2k on Q river. 55 on 8865 isn't close to good for $1.4k vs 83s - this one wasn't even versus the whale, but a Spanish aggrotard drooler reg who has been worse than BE for years but lately has been on something of a heater of late. Thus I ended up stuck a fair bit, though I'm sure the thousands in Sklansky bucks will pay for a nice... oh wait.

The net result is a month that was shaping up to be modestly solid is going to be garbage a lot like February, though hopefully not quite as poor. I just wish I could be like the vast majority of other regs who live in their happy worlds where running 10 buyins below EV is a bad run, or losing a minimum of 5+ consecutive all-ins with 85%+ equity between the occasional hold is unheard of.
