    Default do i just fn' suck??

    i'm really confused. i had been playing very good. i don't know what is normal but i was up $350 over the course of 20k hands in the last month.... playing .10/.25 NL 6max. is that good? the last week has just completely kicked my ass. have i lost my mind? have i gone completely donk? i feel i am weak when i should be strong... and when i am strong i get crushed. damn i am so fucked in the head right now. am i properly bankrolled with $600 to be playing 25 NL? i had it up to 950 now i am back to 650. please tear me apart... if i'm sucking i wanna know.

    +350 @ 20k @ 25NL is roughly 3-4ptbb/100 (someone check my math).
    that is good, but not great (move up when u get to 5)

    while 12 buyin swings are common, i really doubt it's completely luck and you're probably tilting, and because you're tilting you're playing bad too.

    hand 1: bet the turn, check river.
    hand 2: bet the turn.
    hand 3: nh
    hand 4: looks like the river saved you. i'm not putting a 4bet on the flop, and i'll wait for a safe turn to be more aggressive.
    hand 5: call.
    hand 6: fine.
    hand 7: i'd raise the turn. as played i'm not folding. pot is $13.25, and it's $4 to call.
    hand 8: fine
