lol at 3betting a fish with A8o...please, stop posting. It would help if you knew about the 2 players in the blinds but obviously you don't while I do.

OP.

This will be my last serious post before I start trolling (warning noted).

Q9o should not be a standard open in CO unless you got some big fish, but postflop was OK since other guy obv. whale and short stacked.

JT hand call on river vs the ship was atrocious, just fold

A8o you're not going to be able to profitable flat in MP vs UTG basically no matter how bad the person is.

The attitude + HH you've supplied us with suggests you lack some skill. When told that it was a mistake you immediately defend it---suggesting arrogance/overconfidence/mental leak. The mental leak part is also exemplified by the fact you keep complaining.

Again, last serious post.

Move down stakes, get some coaching, be honest with yourself and do some review. Stop getting angry at other people/results. Reflect.

Thanks I appreciate it. I agree Q9 is not a standard open but the players were so bad so I was opening wide. This is part of the reason I hate playing with all these fish because I start getting away from the solid game I play.

Like even the JT hand I would fold against so many opponents but I felt against this guy it was fine to call. You're right though it should've been a fold. Just such a **** river.

As for dropping stakes absolutely not. I'm not new to 50NL. I'm a winner at this stake long-term. The stats are from a very short period of time like a month or so. My stats on the other skin where I play most of my hands are much better and I'm a consistent winner. Dropping stakes is not even a consideration.

You have major mental leaks. You need to do more reflection on your game both prior to playing and after. Be honest with yourself.

This is definitely true.

1. I don't care about your respect.

2. I'm not a breakeven player.

3. I was not trolling, you should move down from 50NL. That's a generously fair remark on my part because really its in my interests that people like you continue to play stakes way above your ability.

No one cares you dopey loser. If you were any good at all you wouldn't be wasting your time posting mindless comments in a beginner poker forum.

My bad, you're right, you've just been running bad. I'm sure it'll turn round soon and you'll be crushing again no problems. GL at the tables.

If you think about it, the best way to win that money back faster is to move up. Since OP hates playing against a table full of fish he should find a nice $400NL table that has a waiting list of 30 when he sits down.

Uh, the money I'm down is so small it's nothing to be alarmed about. Definitely more bad luck than anything elsse. Why would I move to 400NL? You are just brainless. And I have a winrate at 100NL also. I'll have that money back in no time won't be long.

You're very defensive, but I understand that you didn't come to ask how to improve your game, so all the advice might be unwarranted. But that doesn't mean it's not spot on.

If you ever do find yourself not winning over a significant sample, it's easier to come to terms with the fact you're not as good as you think you are, because you can change that, than to believe you're perennially unlucky, because you can't change that
