Losing Streak
Topic: General Poker
I've been in such a losing streak lately. Ever since I did poorly in the $50 buyin game, it has been downhill. I withdrew the money I had left from Pokerstars to get ready for Vegas this weekend. I left enough cash for 5 $1 sit and goes and never cashed out. I played a free roll FSN game last night only to go on tilt by some players pissing people off at the table. The only time I've won so far was with two play money sit and goes.

How do I win 3 multitable sit and goes last week and do so poorly this week? I know my problem was playing limits I can't afford. I played a $30 and $50 but lost and never cashed in them. I could've played over a dozen $5 games for some good practice if I didn't try for the more expensive games. I could've stretched out the $70 I lost at Hollywood Park and played it online instead.

If I play to get money I lose. I should always play for the sake of playing poker since I do better that way.

Wish me luck in Vegas.
