Fuck my life.

Games played: 300
Total profit: -$156.71
ROI%: -20.89

4/11.67/50/22.67/11.67

FT rate: 5%

FT distribution (best 10): 2nd/2nd/3rd/3rd/3rd/4th/5th/5th/6th/6th.

Still can't book a damn win. 3rd, 3rd and 8th in the last 100 games, then a string of mincashes losing 30k flips and such before the FT. The last FT i made there's 3 of us left, blinds 2k/4k@400. I'm in the BB with AA and 75k, the 60k BTN minraises to 8000. I make it 18,000, he flats. 39,600 out there, flop KK5. I jam, he snaps with his KTs and that's that. Ive got like 10k left and go out soon after. Fuck sake. I like my play more than a shove though - if he's stupid enough to put in 10k more with KTs then he's definitely stupid enough to then stack off on any Txx/Kxx/QJx/board with two clubs etc, and he's obviously folding a tonne of flops and giving me 10k more than if i just jam it in and force him out.

The last few mincashes ive had 88 < QTs for 30k, QQ< AKo for 36.5k and just now, on my 300th game, I jam QTo on the tightest table ever to run into KK, then lose A9o < 54s to bust.

I would have jammed the AA as the pot size is already 14k and would increase my chipstack buy almost 20% also this would only get callers from hands that i dominate and would be grateful to be racing against..high pocket pairs and AK....is a very unlucky flop but these things do happen, saw live at the final table of major tournement live AA v AK and the flop came KK9(all in preflop)..remember AA is probably the hand most people remember losing,but you always going to lose 2 out of every 10.....

good luck at the tables...
