    No Bad Beats, Just Me Losing

    How I lost my 9th cash session in a row. 374 hands two stupid pots, great session to lose $54 but winning might just feel great.

    "You have it in your power to turn a bad-beat around simply by realizing this simple truth: The more bad beats you encounter, the luckier you are. It's a sign that you are playing against opponents who continually take the worst of it, and if you can't beat someone who always takes the worst of it, you can't beat anyone"

    Yes, I have resorted to being a whiney bitch.

    looks to me like you saved money on the second hand by playing it correctly - those hands go in the plus column in my mental records - 60 bucks saved is 60 bucks earned.
