July 28, 2008, 12AM: Lost $2.20 at PokerStars
$2 Buy-In No-Limit Texas Hold'em Tournament (413th out of 620 Players)

AK<A7
 
I just don't know what to do.  Any one of these nights over the last month someone should expect and be able to just say "it happens, bad night" and move on...
 
But this shit is every fucking night.  I simply don't know what to do.  I feel like I am still playing well and have a very objective opinion of the way I am running.  At least I am playing well within my bankroll so the money lost isn't causing any tilt or pain...its just wanting to win so bad and watching people that make terrible plays run me down tourney after tourney.
 
I saw a guy bitch about losing a 2200 pot tonight when he started with the hand with 13k.  He bitched about his horrible beat (10-outter).  Gimme a break.
 
I've taken breaks, reviewed hand histories, watched pokerxfactor videos, talked to a few friends who I respect, played fewer tables at a time, played only when I am very motivated, and complained to you guys.  My head says the breaks have to eventually fall my way so I guess I will continue to plug away.
 
Also, I have no $ on Stars anymore and Deiyuo is ignoring my request to swap $40 between Stars and FTP.  If anyone (preferably one of you guys I know who posts kinda often) has enough money on each site that they wouldn't mind shipping me $40 or $50 on Stars in exchange for the same on FTP I would greatly appreciate it.
 
Yeah that's right I called you out Deiyuo
