I've been playing on FTP for about 4 - 5 months now, and up n' till the last few weeks I had been playing solid poker, trying to build a BR and so on, succeeding also. The last few weeks have been brutal, to say the least. Eg -- I hold 88, flop a set and my opponent has A10, the board is dry only with a Q on the flop. Money goes in and he hits runner runner K J (or J K cant remember) which i believe has a chance of 3% of happening? Soon after that I really do try not to tilt, but i get all my money in with a 90% chance to win, and again I lose. It accumilated to about 13 times in the last few weeks where I've been 91%+ chance to win and lost. I'm not one to judge, but surely mathematically speaking, the odds of winning just arent holding up as they should be? Correct me if I'm wrong, or if I've made a mistake. Another example (heads up) I hold Q 9 clubs, my opponent holds K10, I raise he calls, I flop an open ended, he bets I call, he hits a K (but giving me the straight). The board is now 10 J 5 K, money goes in and he spikes another K on the river for the boat. That basically was the end of me playing for money and I'll think hard about redepositing after I took out what was a very small profit in the end. I am yet to play live but I'm sorely tempted to give it a go and see how the cards fall. Good luck all, take care.
