I hate Poker

[kungfumaster]

Hi guys, After less than a month of playing BillHill poker, I'm getting fed up. I'm over £100 down playing £10+1 an £20+1 STT... I have been placed 4th so many times and have so many cr*p hands and beaten in the showdown so many times when I initially have the better hand!! It's sooo frustrating!! :wall I've got £50 left in my account and after that's gone, that's it! So... what do you guys reckon I should play to win back my money :hope ? Are STTs the way to go? Or shall I take my £50 to the cash tables and try my luck there?

Re: I hate Poker Hi Jezza, I would say that 70% are bad beats and 30% is bad play. I usually play quite tight, esp when the blinds go up. When the blinds are low I play all sorts to see the flop cheaply. When the blinds go high I usually only play decent hands. If I have no hands for a long time, happens frequently, then I am forced to play a average hand and invariably lose. I guess you will say this is a bad tactic... I've had full houses beaten by a higher full house after going all in and also noticed that flushes and straights happen very often, a lot more often than 3 of a kind. After losing one and coming 10th place in a MTT yesterday I still have £50...
