wow 3 months straight at those buy ins must hurt

Im up at 3am staring at the ceiling wondering how the F i can lose everynight for 3 straight months....For the 3rd night in a row im in the Top5 with 30 to go and see 40 straight hands of 63os to finish out or barely in the money.
You can afford it way more than i can but it does help to know it happens to other people as well. Pearljammer was right on my ass the whole way the last time i made a deep run in a big tourny....Hopefully that happens again soon!!!! -
whaaaaa.....whaaaaa...I run so bad...I lost some hands...whaaaa...whaaaa...
suck it up joanie..you have a half a million dollar score and your going to cry like a girl about a losing month... -
At first sight I thought this could be a post for some of those awful days tha nothing goes right.
If you believe that losing AK v AJ as you showed there is considered a bad beat (70/30 ) you must have been running good for quite a long time (Some of us when we face A4 with AK already know we are flipping -it´s a 50/50 spot at best;there are days we positive know they are actually favourites.).Look they not even bother me when they happen.Just got used to.
I could post HH such as those for almost any session I play.
So ,botton line is,I have to thank you for posting this stuff. Now I feel much better knowing that I have prolly been making the right decissions at the table,just not getting as lucky as some of you prolly do constantly,therefore the whinning about this trivial spots. (pls feel free to contact me when you happen to lose 27 flips in a row,yes its correct ,27 on the troat --world guinnes record???)
By now you are guessing that I am a losing player;well,I do not know how, but I manage to be break even,slightly ahead.
So Im here in front of my computer dreaming on one of those amazing hot runs that everyone else seems to know about.Until them I keep studying the game and trying to improve it (obv as you have guessed by now,the psychologic part of self control and,blah,blah is something that I no longer lack of ).
Finally I strongly recommend you to keep on improving your game and stop whining about trivial spots as these specially when there is a field of players out there not as half skilled as you are and, above all,not as half lucky as you certainly have been during you poker career if you happen to ignore streaks like this.
Regards.
P.S. fwiw your book ,particularly your part, is awesome.
