I've been playing online poker for a couple monthes now. I was ok beforehand in my live games with some friends who were making some decent change in online poker so i decided to give it a shot. I didn't do very good so i started looking for help. I stumbled across this site a month ago and my poker game got better. But i still couldn't turn a profit. I read these forums everyday. I read all the tactics and whatnot on the site. I understood it all. But i kept running into randomness over and over and over and over again.

and i just hate lucky people. and this is like the 100th one today but it was the biggest and most moronic of them all.

this is at the .10/.25 no limit tables at PP and i'm p2x0s13. Guess who the moron is....
