This morning i suffered my biggest loss in my carreer. I've lost 6bis in just 1300 hands.
Honestly, I don't think I played that bad just things didn't went my way this time. I do made one clear clear mistake i remember but mainly my fired barrels and thin value bets got hammered by the river. Evaluated the situation ~90% of the time somewhat correctly but the river cards wich made me beat were sooo unlikely (example: 2KQr 7 3 with AK vs 23s) that I fired / bet happily again. Also I wasn't able to compensate the losers with my winners which is partly my fault. I tried to experiment occasionally with wild overbets against targets (possibly because I was down and wanted to get my money back quickly - but i'm not sure) but they didn't worked.
I think it's a great opportunity to start finally review the marked hands not just mark it and leave.

All in all nothing tragical happened, it's just a feedback to start work harder...

peace

ps: my security key has finally arrived from the FT store after more than 6 weeks. well done :-S

This is the way the poker gods work. We just have to deal with the swongs better than our opponents :)

Do your review and put it behind you.
