You have to be lucky constantly nowadays. On Poker Tracker the majority of my big hands are at a loss because of dumb plays getting real lucky. People will play with bottom pair no matter how much you bet [my K-K beaten by A-3 by runner runner straight] or they raise with absolutely nothing [10-10 beaten by A-K by runner runner flush] stupid bluffs hit their miracle [A-J beaten by K-Q on a 10-10-J flop, by the river A.]

Oh but my favourite hand was the J-5 offsuit bluff, beating my A-A with a runner runner straight, only for the same guy beating me again with runner runner straight against my K-K.

So here it is, there is no skill in poker anymore, there are just too many players who are willing to gamble stupid amounts to outdraw and suckout, on Poker Tracker the ones who are playing the good poker, are the losers of the game, whereas fish donkeys and all losers in between are lapping it up. And no matter how good your hand is, it needs to holdup and if you don't have that luck then all thats going to happen is you will just lose your bankroll by the very players that if constant bad luck doesn't happen, should be crushed. And I don't want to hear about these are the players you want to play, no, you want to play players who have some idea but just play bad, not those who have no idea what they are doing.

Poker just sucks now.
