You should play better then, lol
All joking aside...take a break from poker for a little bit. Try analyzing your game and see where you can improve. You can also try posting hand histories here and see if anyone can help you out a little bit.
Take a break, get your head back to normal and come back. Or just stop playing poker...
keep playing ba d but lose to me and i will be better off but u will still suck
ohhhhhhhh yes i know the feeling... get used to it... or change something.
even tho its hard to.. you shoould take a break if you are running poorly... but the reality is.. it all boils down to BR management... if you playing well within your BR like 2% of your roll for buyins... then it really shouldnt matter.. ie you wouldnt be throwing away money...
I've been there. Just take a short break, it cools you down.
Take a break or think of it as a long term investment.
wish i had better spending habits ~ but .......
maybe i should wish for money instead :p

posting hand histories is asking for trouble.. if u cant analyze and adjust or blow off good moves that got rivered, play bridge or hearts or sumthin else
Ya I agree Panther posting your hand histories is a terrible Idea. Not only because it is, but for numerous other reasons. First off posting your hand histories allows other players to analyze and adjust to whip your ass. Second off Id HOPE to think that on a real cash table that you would MAKE your opponent PAY to see your hand, so what are you doing posting hand histories?Quote:

Well I was going to suggest maybe studying and reading a bit more, but if you know you are losing due to bad play, sounds like you may know what you are doing wrong.
I do think it is a good idea to post hand histories here, these people are not really your opponents when you are playing on the tables (for real not in PO games) and can probably help you out.
I do find a break helps when I am making bad decisions and can't seem to stop.
watchin players that win consistently is better advice than hand histories and analysis.. you may may not know what they had but that is the game. If you know what I have, I'm not playing well.
Don?t agree with this, learning by taking advice from others can?t be wrong.Quote:

Time to step away from poker for a while. When it's not fun or interesting anymore you'll just spew chips. Find another hobby or go back to an old one.
If you want keep playing, but want to control how much money your losing, then I suggest figuring out a good BRM plan that works for you and don't deposit anymore money. Play with what you already have online and build up your BR from FRs if you it's small. I keep my BR strategy simple and don't let any BI equal more than 5% of my BR. It helps me play better because the consequence of playing bad is that I have to play cheaper buy ins, which isn't as much fun. And when I play well, I'm really excited when I get to move up to bigger buy ins.
sometimes poker gets a little boring for me but then i just go out for a few days, change up my mood and then it naturally comes back to me lol
Take a break,,, maybe lower the stakes you've been playing and go from there... goodluck
