cashing out.

since i started playing hold 'em on the internet, i've heard all kinds of rumours of how one hits a losing streak after they cash out some money. and i thought ya right how can that be. i've been playing the $10 ring games after giving up on the sng's and it worked out all right for me i went from a bankroll of $50 to a bankroll of $250 in almost 3 weeks, so i figured instead of moving up to the $25 tables i will cash out 50 bucks and stay where i am and move up when i'm just a little more comfortable. so 4 days ago i cashed out. then BOOM eveything fell apart my AA and KK's are getting ripped to shit by crap hands, i can't beleive some of the hands i've lost too let alone that someone actually was playing with the cards they had, but anyway since i cashed out i've played at 16 different $10 tables and left the table up money twice. i went on tilt today good thing i caught myself b4 it went too far, good thing i have family coming this weekend, gonna take some time away from the tables and start back at it on monday.

Just wondering if anyone else heard of this happening or seen it happen to themselves or anyone else.

i'm not superstitous (spelt wrong probably) but dang thats a real kick in the ass.

There are professional posters on this forum who make thousands a month playing online poker. They cash out regularly in order to live off the money they make online. If the site decided to give every player who cashed out a big streak of bad luck everytime they did so then these players would starve. They are still alive which leads me to the conclusion that what you are experiencing is just negative varience.

I know I sound sarcastic but I don't mean to be.

If I told you it was all true, would you believe me?

You've got it all wrong - wake up! The poker sites DO give people bad runs of cards when they cash out. They DO starve, and they do die. The poker sites then simply start another instance of their poker bot - it will play poker, it will post on their forums, it will even go home to their wives and kids and they will not know the difference from the real thing.

Trust me, it's going on, you are all blinded from the truth.
