Down and up.

Profit: $5

How do you make money on poker when you go through a patch like this?

http://www.pokerhand.org/?1152194 (QQs walk into a madness)

http://www.pokerhand.org/?1152198 (QQs run up against massive strength, no idea where I am)

http://www.pokerhand.org/?1152202 (turn card makes me spew $4)

http://www.pokerhand.org/?1152207 (turn card makes me spew $3)

http://www.pokerhand.org/?1152211 (it's had to get someone to make a mistake calling when the board keeps chucking out more and more outs)

http://www.pokerhand.org/?1152218 (my monster(ish) walks into another one)

http://www.pokerhand.org/?1152228 (could have bet on the flop but that wouldn't of got rid of him. Just another monster being hit by a better one)

http://www.pokerhand.org/?1152233 (how many more full houses do people want?)

You do it by being determined not to tilt and by waiting patiently to strike back.

http://www.pokerhand.org/?1152239 (bignan was a silly maniac and I reckoned that the other guy thought I was raising all in to try and isolate the maniac and get what was in the pot so I thought he would gamble with exactly the type of hand that he hand.)

Boom!

Not exactly a profit I know but by keeping a level head I turned a $20 losing weekend into an acceptable amount of variance.
