Over the past month, I played close to 600 or so games at PokerStars. Over that span, I dropped close to $500, or about 30 buy-ins. I have literally been unable to win a single flip when it counts. Oh, I will win a flip when it's for like 15 chips, but when my tournament life is on the line, it's been lose lose lose. Lose when a favorite, lose when a big favorite, lose when a slight underdog, lose as a big underdog. I hold K9, I know for a fact that the fucker has Q9 or some other shit, think about folding, but then I call anyway. He has Q9o. Board gives him a straight, and then a flush on the end for good measure. I got kings, the dude has like 67o, lops two pair. Or he has ducks, flops quads. Boom, my chips are gone. Over and over and over again.
Not to mention all the bubbles because of this. Out of those 600 or so, I probably bubbled 150.
Holy shit. I have never been a net loser over such a sample before. But I have also never 8-12 tabled before. Coincidence? I think not.
2.3K VPP down, 700 to go. I just hope I don't piss away my entire bankroll before I become GoldStar this month, hopefully tomorrow. At least I still got like 175 Buy-ins to work with.
