This can't continue, surely?

Well, I started playing the $10 fifty50s...and ran even worse, I was over $100 in the first 3 or so days after only playing 66! So I dropped back down to the $5s, got half of it back before...you've got it, things got even worse still. I am honestly at my wits end to know how to get through this, I must be near $1k down at EV since my downswing over a month ago. It surely can't keep going I tell myself..but it does. Sigh. I am also down 1 mouse which reacted badly to being thrown against the wall!

The worst thing is you can frequently put them on a hand..like this:

I snap called this and it wasn't even close. So why can't I beat them over the last 1500 games or so when they call an all in for almost their entire stack with Q7 on the bubble? :( I decided to buy Jared Tendler's "The Mental Game of Poker" after seeing very impressive reviews - will it help me? Time will tell...

Slightly better news on the betting, Wycombe's win on Saturday gave them third and I remembered that one of my ew accas was done with Paddy Power, who pay top 3 in the Premiership! So realizing that Arsenal may well blow third place, I laid them off (I've done most of it and will do the rest before Man City v Spurs tomorrow) to guarantee myself a grand either way. I am working on next year's one now. Okay I tell a lie, I've already pretty much made my mind up on it, but you'll have to wait for next season's preview to see what it is :D

Chalfont won the cup to make it a double for the first time in their 85 year history, super stuff, really chuffed. Roll on next season, although I was planning on going to the Southern League AGM where we should be inaugurated I have found out that it will be in Torquay..so maybe not!

Thanks for reading and good luck...please could someone remove the doomswitch before the next post?
