down $100in in one session.

i apologize ahead of time if this is just a crying post. am i supposed to fold a couple of these hands?... maybe the 99 i guess?

i just don't like ring. i have to finish out of the money in 10-15 tourneys to lose $100. i'd like to be good at them. i guess being good at ring makes you a better player... but i'm pretty happy with my MTT progress.

i dunno.... i just can't take the swings. when i'm playing my bread and butter MTT ($4 180), i'm making a final table almost every night. i can't remember the last time i lost $100 in a night.
