Rough goings!

So it's been awhile since I've written. Alot has happened since the last time I checked in. I've been playing alot at the HR due to the fact I don't want to pay for my time at the tables, like at the Beau and IP. So HR has been the place of choice, until the bad beats started happening. Within a 3 week period I have had not one winning session, I 've tried to look at my game and change it to fit the tables but that didn't work either. It seems that I get called with hands that shouldn't be calling . I understand the suited connector theory and just suited cards, but thats not the hands I'm getting beat with. 72o, j4o,q4,84,k7o, just to name a few. This hand here will give you a better ideal of what I've been dealing with. This is tha deep satck at the Beau on wendsdays and fridays. So I had been playing really well this tournament up until this hand. I'm in the SB seats 1 thru 5 fold blinds are 8 and 16oo 300 ante Seat 6 raises to 5700 it folds around to me I look down at Qd Qs I have 17k in front of me and I decide to push for all of it this guy had been raising every other hand he has about 25k in front of him. He thinks for about 2 min and says I have 2 overs on you and I call he flips over KQo. for 17k in chips which would leave him 8k or so. He's a 83 to 17 underdog, unless he flops a str draw. 3 outs to beat me. To make a long story short the window card is a K. Bye I'm out of the tournament in 20th. Thats how it's been for the past 3 weeks same exact thing everytime. But I know It will change in the near future. Cash games have been awful. No competition at all. Just people playing what I call lottery poker, parying to god that they hit the jackpot hand , so they call you down with nothing and hit. No skill, just luckier than me.

With all that said, I want to take a stab at the black jack table and see if I can make up for the loses that have occured the past 3 weeks. That starts off great I'm up 300 and want to press my luck and the next thing you know I'm down another 1000. But hey it's only money right????
Things should brighten up here shortly.....

DO WORK son.....
