Running Bad is Starting To Get Ridiculous

[Stocks]

Actually it's not starting to get rediculous it is rediculous and has been for a while, 15,000 hands of absolute bullshit.

I'm not usually one to complain about bad beats I'm usually like thats just poker but it has got so bad that I'm almost converted to one of those online poker is rigged people. Over those 15k hands (11 days) I'm down $1100 playing a tight low variance style of $1 $2 limit holdem I got VPIP of 12.70.

Today I was playing for around an hour (400) hands and I was up small plus I was hungry so I said fuck it this is all I'm going to play today so atleast I can say I had a winning day which I have'nt been able to say in a while. So I click sit out next BB on all tables and then this bullshit happens. These are the last 3 hands I was involved in after clicking the sit out next BB button.

1. I get pocket Kings I rasie then I get rerasied so I cap it and the flop, turn and river all come bullshit and the other guy turns over AA not really a bad beat but it has happen an absurb amount lately.

2. Someone raise I call with 55 and the flop comes 5-7-7 I check other guy bets, turn is a 3 I check other guys bets and I put in a check raise and guy call. River comes another 7 I was like WTF kind of card is that but I say I still got a fullhouse and lead out and I get raised I call the guy turns over 88.

3. I'm in middle position get AK suited so I raise and some douche bag in laste pos reraise so I cap it. Flop comes Q-2-Q with 2 harts I C bet he raises I call, turn comes and A so I check he bets I reraise he calls and the river comes a 4 of harts, I really did'nt notice it was a hart and I kind of put the guy on KK, JJ or AK anyway so I bet he raise I call and guess what the fuck he got A3 of harts for a flush who the fuck 3 best with A3 suited and rivers a flush.

So my small $10 profit for the day turned into a $36 loss.

This may not seem all that bad but this is literally what my last 15k hands have been like anytime I get extra bets in I lose and what makes it even worse is the games have been extra fishy lately, a lot of the regs have'nt been playing lately and they have been replaced with a bunch of just bad horrible players but they just keep hitting they're magic card hand after hand after hand after hand.

I'm thinking of giving up poker and developing a nice coke habbit it would be +ev over poker.

No offense but you played hand 2 like a donk. You've still got a full house? On that board and with the previous action you just got counterfeit how can you expect to have the best hand? Instead of whining about bad beats, focus on your game and how you can improve.

So your saying on a 5-7-7-3-7 board and you have a 5 not even a pair of 5's because that don't mean shit at this point just any 5 you're going to check the river. I guarentee you will get called more times with ace high or a 3, pocket 2's or pocket 4's then the other person had a higher pocket pair and thats not even close.

Based on this "I get pocket Kings I rasie then I get rerasied so I cap it "
Sounds like were talking LHE (though stocks correct me if I'm wrong) which is game all be it ages ago I've played around 750,000 hands of. Not commenting on the rest of the hand, but just on the river play, the way its been played so far, I'd consider bet/call as an option with the chance of picking up 2 bets instead of one (one bet is going in regardless, opponent is never checking, it comes to the EV of that final bet, which is he most always making.. and in the times he doesn't then the one bet probably has value). Of course I'm not at the table and the only info I have preflop is "someone raises I call" I don't know who that someone is, their tendencies position etc. I'm not saying I make that play, but it is an option I'd consider in the split seconds I run through the hand and decide my river play.

I don't play limit, but the AK hand was played really bad, the 55 hand was pretty bad, and the KK hand is nothing to complain about.

Post these on 2p2 for more feedback from limit players, I am sure they will rip the hands though.

You need to learn how to fold to river raises. Otherwise quit poker.

But nobody would fold those hands to a river raise in limit poker especially $1 $2
