Every time I feel tilted enough to make a post, I am fine like 30 mins later. I'm sure I won't play any more today, but I feel like 90% over it already. I should prob just never bitch to anyone cuz I will feel better so soon after.

Time to play MW2 IMO.
I think we all feel pretty similarly about this. I know I feel weak or unprofessional when I complain about stuff like how bad I'm running but the fact of the matter is we all need to sometimes. Sure, it's possible never to- but I don't think it's healthy. We are all human and working in a very emotional and often lonely profession and when things go bad it's nice to have a sort of brotherhood of people who go through the same things as you who can pity your downswings or encourage you to grind through that ****.
I guess all I'm saying is that often I'll try to be all hard and "handle my **** like a man" and to an extent, I think that's a good thing. But when things get really bad, sharing them makes my situation feel a little bit lighter and I hope that's what happens to you and everyone else who posts in bbv cause hey, that's what it's there for.
Snaggle, MW2 tilts me too. I like to think I am actually pretty good at it, but I get really mad playing it. In actuality, I get more mad playing any other game/sport than poker. With poker, I guess I have just worked on not getting angry and other games I have no problem screaming. Especially when its a video game.
Kutty, I hear ya. I guess it is all fine, but like you said, I usually just feel like a bitch for whining. I have been doing this a pretty long time now and have handled swings much bigger than what I had today. It is nice to vent, though.

This is very touching and gay, but true and a good post.
Here's a few hands from an interesting little match I had to end the year. All the same opponent 1 tabling. Hopefully not too long but I've enclosed some pictures to keep you entertained.
Ya hand 11 was so brutal at the time...took awhile to build up to 5k and then just back to nothing after thinking I was going to win it all. Thought it would take forever to win it back but ran super hot after that hand.
