    hey peops...

    i only play at small stakes but have been going through a horrible run of cards lately (being outdrawn continuously etc)......just wondering what everyone does when they go through through patches like this?
    should i take a break for a while....? drop down a level? give up all together? :)

    what works for you to relieve the stress?

    if so , it must be the stars. I've got so many bad beats lately I feel like a drum dropped down the bleedin stairs of a 20 story skyscrapper.

    for stress relief i commit petty crimes and leave taunting notes for the police.

    may we both receive an even break soon.

    The worst thing about playing at micro stakes is you can't move down when tilty.

    well I certainly wouldn't be putting any on from this season, that's for sure.

    Seriously?. I'd like to try being a bit of a stoner for a while but i cant stand the act of inhaling smoke. Its also ridiculous to inhale smoke and i cant inhale smoke without coughing. Could you send me the recipe?. In fact forget the recipe, i cant bake either.
    Do you know of any markets or anywhere i can buy these where i wont get any funny looks or frowns or looks of confusion when i ask?.

    probably best to pm me in case this thread goes off topic.

    No but there are more levels you can move up when tilty which is way more fun.

    I have a number of different things i do - at the moment i'm just not playing online at all, and won't be for the next couple of weeks. I'll just be trying to play a few live events instead, which i much prefer.

    Another option is to play something else - if you're primarily playing holdem, you could play omaha or stud instead.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,832 ✭✭✭Waylander


    When I am constantly getting kicked in holdem online I tend to go and find a stud table and play 7 card stud for a while. Funnily enough I usually do alright in stud when I am getting kicked around in holdem.
