Progress Report

So, remember how in my first post I was talking about being on a nice little rush? Well, since we got here around the beginning of February, I've made only $400. I've only put in about 60k hands since then, but holy shit... I was up almost 2 grand towards the end of last month. I am getting destroyed! I've heard of well known established pros breaking even over 200k hands, but I just didn't think it was something I needed to worry about too much. Now, I admit, I started playing badly for about a week towards the beginning of this month. This is pretty common; when the cards are falling in your opponents' favor over and over, you start feeling like everything you're doing is wrong. This can cause you to change your strategy in ways that are obviously bad for your winrate. However, I do seem to have things under control now, as in I'm back on my old game again, which is good. But the beats are still hammering me. Let's just say, I've gotten a lot more practice at quitting my sessions early...

The below video has been my only solace in this shit storm of unluckiness. Yea, I just made up a word.

Notice the random generation of very distinct phenomes in the middle of his sentences, indicating that he's tripping his balls off. Yea, I got hit with a two-outer twice last session, but at least one of my friends didn't record me while I was hallucinating and post it on YouTube!
