One step forward, two steps back
Had a good week last week, crappy one this week.
Ring games have just been flat out weird. I feel like I'm playing well, but I can't just have a hand play out normal. Add to the fact I've run really cold and had got next to nothing what big PP I have had and, well.....that's -EV folks.
MTT's? HA! I'm 0 for a bunch and have had a sick suckout in every single one for the last month. I've had AA cracked by AK/AQ more times that I care to count (6 in the last 2 weeks)
However, I'm staying cool, this isn't the "oh my God, what the hell is going on" kind of time I was having this summer. I'm flat running bad. I can't hit a big draw, I can't push a decent hand through, big pairs cracked, etc. It happens. I can honestly say I feel like I'm playing better, but it's just not going my way right now. I haven't lost anything stupid, so I'm not in panic mode. As usual, I'm playing a bit above what my online BR will support, but I feel like I can compete and all it takes is a couple of good sessions.
I'm going to take a couple of more cracks and if I can't get anything going, I'll probably drop back down to $50NL for a bit.

i've had AA a LOT lately and i've picked up just the blinds everytime. i have made the same std raise w/ it like i do ALL of my hands, it's like they suddenly have X-ray spec's.
I feel for you on the running bad part. Take time and reread a poker classic, come back fresh and strong.
