Month long slump leaves me in the dumps
Hey guys,
Just got back from two long days of poker that had me busting early and busting horribly to some awful bad beats… That’s the name of the game and I can handle it but it sucks to go on one of the slumps, I’ve heard about them but never experienced an all out long-term poker drought so to speak. It seems every time I’m ahead, especially 3-to-1 favorite or better they suck out on the flop or river. Here’s a brief list of the beats I’ve been hit with just in the past 2 days:
JJ (me) vs. 77 (opponent) - Board: A-K-7-4-2
AA (me) vs. 22 (opponent) Board: 2-4-7-J-8
J-10 of spades (me) vs. 88 Board: 8s-3-7s-Qs-Qh
A-J vs. 3-4: Board: A-2-5-7-J
… I think its time for a little break from the tables… I’ll be back at the tables in a few weeks hopefully refreshed and back to my normal form..
-Matty
