Blah, i tried to get NL2 --> NL5 but i managed to get -$10 in 20mins. Latest hand was this..

HUD was showing only 18 hands from the player and it was like vpip: 38 pfr and 3-bet was 0 and wtsd about 38.. I should check the river because all the Ax handed got it on the river..

Final Board: T 5 T 8 A
BB showed A T and won $10.22 ($5.20 net)
Hero showed K K and lost (-$5.02 net)

Is there possibly anything else i can do? Or is this automatically go broke mode?

Hi Berzerekki

That river shove is definitely too loose.

There are very few hands that can call you there that you still beat. You are looking at JJ/QQ at best (if he doesn't 3-bet them preflop).

So for me the river is a check back.

I totally agree with that. I have to learn to hold back those bet-bet-bet lines, when there's obviously play against the better hand. It seems so hard to concentrate and fold these kind of hands. Even if i played over a year. _o:
