I have been playing for years with mixed results...i'd say im up $800 but that doesn't matter. Tonight I lost $600 dollars on hands that I would rather not describe. I have a job so this is really no biggie to me but I just wonder how the poker "pros handle these beats....it is disgusting at the $1/2 level and I think degens must be looming on Carbon Poker. I will get over this I just wonder if other internet players experience huge downswings similar to what I just experienced???

gg and gl on your future endeavors

nope, no one but you has had a downswing before. quit poker

WTF is a downswing?? I've never heard of a downswing in poker.

Maybe after taking a break for a while you will return tables refreshed, GL OP

Wait, you lost $600 at 1-2? Dude you might have a gambling problem. That's a huge loss.

I recently returned to Carbon and found that there were almost no fish, it was full of regs plus I ran like crap. As recently as last year the Merge network was like Party Poker of old but man has it changed. Yuck, do not want.

1 hand at 3/6 could have it all back.

Just something to keep in mind.

$600 loss in only one session? WTF, that's so sick man. unrealz

There has def been people on the internet who has gone on 300bb downswings before, not sure how many though. GG and GL in the future though

WIN

yes i ran so bad...if JJ was good on flop the K6 hit the turn everytime on a junk flop board and the fact the K6 even called a blank board scared me...i don't know about this Carbon Poker and Merge Network...i think i'm done..and this has nothing to do with coolerz or bad beats

had me fooled

I don't know. 300bb's is alot, maybe like a handful of people have ever gone on downswings like that before, that's pretty sick. Can't imagine what losing 3 entire buyins in a session would feel like...

Yeah, they had problems withdrawing too. I hope their get together with that other poker site gives them a bump but they've dropped in quality imo.
