Well, the haters who have been waiting to say "I told you so" can now say it... sort of.
Bankroll: $499
VPPs: 570 (630 to go)
Went on the inevitable downswing two nights ago. I won't bore you with the details, but lets just say I missed a few draws, put my KK against AK preflop for a full stack, and got a set all in against my straight on the turn before the board paired up on the river. That's poker. I also made one idiotic $10 call on the river with my K high after I missed my flush draw.
I'm not sure that I tilt like other people... usually when I get beat big a few times, I tighten up. In fact, I probably made my slide deeper just by betting more passively post-flop because I become sure that I'm beat again. Looking back over my stats, my preflop stats didn't change really from their historic levels but I think my post flop play became more and more timid which doesn't help anything.
Well, I dropped three buy ins (150 bucks!) over two nights, before winning back 50 today. Sadly, my positive swing today was more a result of somebody else playing dumb than me grinding brilliantly.
