I mean, you could pay attention here...this isn't about winning every hand. I win lots of hands...as I said, not withstanding all of this I am still winning. It is about losing all of my premium hands - the hands with which I should be making money are killing me.
I just lost another 2 hands 6 hands apart:
Hand 1: call MP open with 44 on the button and BB (50bb effective) comes along. Flop comes 8 - 4 - k rainbow. It checks to me, I bet 1/3 pot, BB calls MP folds. Turns brings a J, UTG leads out for 25% pot, I raise 3x and he calls. River brings a 7 and he bets 1/4 pot and I jam on him. He calls and shows JJ - SET OVER SET from a guy who didn't raise JJ pre....
Hand 2: On the Button with KK, I open to 3bb and SB calls. Flop comes out J 5 9 with a diamond draw. I cbet 30% pot, he 2x raises and I call. Turn brings a 9, he bets 35% pot and I call. He bets something like 1/2 pot on the river and I call - dude has 99 and wins with the set.
So ya, save me the "you dont win every hand crap"
Just in the course of the last 500 hands, I've had QQ vs KK (all-in pre), JJ vs QQ (not all-in), QQ tied by a board straight, the nut straight beaten by a double paired full-house, top-2 by a rivered straight, a set over set, KK to a set, and TPTK (AK) in a 3bet pot to 2 pair (A-10).
So ya, it's not just about losing - its losing with premium hands in big pots.
