I am currently running currently pretty badly while playing SSS. The last few weeks I went from $450 down to about $200 and currently I play between the NL10 and NL25 levels. I know that SSS is very swingy but sometimes it just gets too much to be sucked out on over and over. Usually when in a downswing you concentrate too much on the bad beats and ignore the times where you actually get lucky or play very badly. The purpose of the thread is to post all the hands where I got lucky as well as the hands that I just messed up horribly. This is for me to refer back to and to motivate me to make fewer mistakes. To start off enjoy this one...
