Dear 2+2,

I have been running bad for years now. I have lost lots of money at poker because of this.

Please pray for me to run good. Thanks. I'll ship $5 to everyone in thread if I start winning.

Love,

hitmenot

a bad streak can last for a long time but if you believe you're playing good poker, just reload and keep the faith - and keep reminding yourself that you're way past due.

Dear Sir/Madam/OP,

If you have "run bad" for years the problem is not very likely to be bad luck.
Instead I propose the following scenarios:
A) You suck.
B) You dont know how to multitable and because of that your sample size is too small despite playing for years.
C) You suck.

As you can see from the above analysis it is a 100% certainty that you suck in one way or another. I am sorry.

Kind Regards,
Me
