I have been on the worst ride in a while. Is it my play or just the worst luck?

Hand #1
The villain as no stats. Is this the wrong move?
http://www.pokerhand.org/?1578697

Hand #2
I just sit at the table. Villain has just shoved 2 hands earlier.
http://www.pokerhand.org/?1578712

Hand #3
Villain calls my UTG raise and a UTG +1 call with 85o and leads a 984 board when he was rr, he shoved.
In this hand I think I am so far ahead that I was happy to get it in. this is the hand that stopped my play. It has been a tough week.

Hand 1 HH is a bit messed up, can I assume he check-raised you?
I like flat-call and reevaluate turn However since I have played w/ STINO before and know he is nitty I'll probably just fold to the c/r. And please table-select better coz Danpil is also a well known nit that doesn't stack off often

Hand 2 Easy shove against a shortie

Hand 3 Don't let bad beats affect your play

omg post your hands in the thread for 10000th time lol.

umm in hand 3 i wouldn't feel comfortable getting that much money in preflop with AKo.
Wikipedia is the best thing ever. Anyone in the world can write anything they want about any subject. So you know you are getting the best possible information.

 lol riverstars.

1. Raise on the flop is rarely a flush on stars surely? A jack calls you down.
2. standard? I hate AK preflop fwiw.

3. Ewwwwww, too much money going in preflop IMO.

 you stack off pretty light


ex. pushing AK pf is a <10BB sng/mtt move, not ring

 Hand 1: Not terrible because you're only loosing to a set and many drawing hands make this same play... aside from the all in. I think you should have slowed down after cillain raised the first time.

Hand 2: Get it all in asap on flop.

Hand 3: I rarely get it all in preflop, but it looks like you made the right read/play so nice hand, bad beat.

Girlfriend: Soo... you forgot to run that errand, but you had time to werewolf? Wtf?

Without looking at the hands, Dr. Phil says yes. You posted this. When you run bad and you are pissed, learn to take a break and take a walk...very EV+

sounds like duh advice, but try it for real. We talk here so much about what to do in hands, but an average player with excellent emotional control can outwin a great player with poor emotional control.
