I could blame it on luck. Thats's easy. It's easy because the last week all the pocket cards I a dealt was reeealy crapy... Let alone that, whenever I was gettin' AA or KK, everybody was folding! It is like they could actually see my cards! The one time somebody called,he folded to my contination bet...
I could blame it on luck. Cause I haven't floped a set for a week now! And the one time I made my set of sixes, on a 6 9 T rainbow board, I started a rereaise frenzy with my opponent (after he checked raised me out of position) until the last mouse click I pushed all in when I started actually using my brain (too late) and said to my self " he has three nines man....)
And at that moment, I realized, it wasn't my bad luck. Hell it was just 2 Buy ins I lost yesterday after 300+ hands and I remembered all the bad plays I made when I actually HAD a hand! Either overbetting when I sould probably check or cont.bet, when I checked when i should value bet, and so on. And the two "Bad beats" I thought I had was actually bad play. (one of the two I described above)
And then I realized something else. Mabe it helps to mesure the situation and think what would be the best play at the given time.
Don't be in a hury to build your bankroll, cause yu are not playing correctly most o the time. Patience. when you have a hand, think. maby you have a monster with TPTK, mabe nothing with a flush. (Rentons words) IT DEPENDS. Let he gambler out of the room and sit down to play correctly.
I could blame it on luck. That's easy....
Or, I could become better...
THAT'S HARD

good attitude, thats the way to think about it, in the past i have been one of the "meehhhhh i am getting sucked out on all the time this blows, pokers rigged blah blah blah", but this is definitely the way to be thinking, now just post some HH's and get to work.

You're exagerating for effect in the first sentence, right? In the second sentence you contradict the first but I still think you're exagerating a little. Have you thought of applying a rigorous statistical analysis of your hand histories using something like HEM or PT3?
Agree w/ philly and revolving, good attitude/post hands. Maybe read this first, if you haven't already done so:

I like the format.
Nothing wrong with writing with your own feelings and expressing it in a story format instead of an analytical or logical fact to fact format.
Refreshing.
But if you want help in improving your play I agree 100% with revolvingiris.
Post your Hand History and there are many that can guide you in the proper direction.
Either way you are new to Flop Turn River.
Welcome and keep posting.
Good luck

Thanks everyone. You are right Roller. I wanted to write about my feelings, because we all know that tilting affects your play directly, so that post helped me.
Everybody is right about the hand history too. I will right away post a new topic (with the correct title) wich will be about a hand.
Thank you all.
