top scaring me LJ, tell me the happy stories.
OK, happy stories. I just ran 8 BIs below EV in 2700 hands...
That's not too bad right, I mean pretty standard for most?
Here's the little "**** YOU LJ" that makes it fun:

Dear Poker Gods,
When I'm running bad in EV, just spare me the coolers on top of it... k thx.
But yeah, this is basically a snippet of how my last 6 months have been. Lots and lots of days like this.
The good news is that I'm in decent spirits about it, played really really really really well and am still going to play later. But FML.
My fiance suggested that I make a bet with someone on who runs worse, as I'm now comfortably in the -200 BIs in EV at 2/4 (up like 50 at 5/10 though, but down a ton in EV at 25/50 while even at 10/20). I think it's starting to sound like a really good idea.
EDIT: Fwiw... not that it really needs justification, but his 5bet shoving range is 99+,AK... and I dunno what he does with AQ to be honest. He did snap shove 300BBs with AK though. RIT actually saved me there as his AKo spiked the flush on the river to my AKo, we tied the next pot so it saved me a few hundred, although it totally boned me in like 3-4 other spots.
EDIT2:
Forgot this one:

I almost folded that one. He has a flush 10000000000000000% of the time but it can definitely be lower than Qd, but if you think about it there aren't a ton.
