[Closed] is this a downswing ?

It's probably a over exaggeration of the truth.

what truth ?

btw just lost with AA againstg KT showing PF and QQ against Q8

You are exactly what I was like a year ago. Making shitty posts about bad beats looking for some attention. No one cares it happens to everyone, you are no different from the rest. The sooner you realise that you might become a better poker player.

As Toby said...it happens to everyone eventually...
Keep playing your A game, read articles and watch videos, and you will be OK. If you are not sure how to play some hands...post them in the evaluation forums...it will be way more productive than wining about bad beats and suckouts...

+1.

I agree with first post. When u are winning big time, next day u lose everithyng posiblle, u have feeling its rigged.. Thats sad, and thats not poker

i guess your right. but then you must know how it feels and it's hard not to freak out.

That's poker baby !

If you are getting scared and panicked with flopping a set or two pairs, maybe you don't have the nerves necessary to be a good player ? Just saying...

That's just yesterday and today. People do get superstitious in these spots

im telling you what i had just today to make you feel a little bit better

and lemme count, 4 AA that were pre allin vs KK twice and QQ twice (lost them all ofc) also 6 KK pre ai (4 times AA, twice QQ lost all)

this was about 6-7 hours of playing...feeling better? there there, it will pass..

Be honest with us and show us your winning line and your all-in expected winnings?

These 2 are going to be close each other in long term...

And later on, no worries, you will ship your 666 to 888 and hit your 6, etc. That just sometimes happens...

What an utterly useless post.

What kind of "advice" is this to give to a newcomer? And what kind of a way of talking to someone who hasn't even offended you in the slightest?

You say you experienced the same thing a year ago. Then you must know that he is currently unable to determine if what he is experiencing is a downswing or simply bad play on his part, and that this can leads to tons of self-doubt. Do you think the best thing to tell him right now is that he is an attention whore?

To the original poster:

Yes, it is most likely a downswing, but you need to post some of your hands in the forums so that other, more experienced players, can take a look and tell if it was really bad luck, or simply bad play. It is hard to say that from just "Kings got beat by aces."

haha. you don't even deserve a response, I will let nightfrostass troll you, here baby

Who told people that losing with AA vs KTo is threadworthy? I feel the same as TobyCS. I dont care.

Oh and yeah, you're probably on a downswing. Its not that hard to figure out.
