Your WORST run. What was it?
By above_films on 05-14-2008 10:02 PM

thought of this thread because i doubt i'm alone in this experience! just wrapped a 24 hour session at 3 different l.a.-based casinos (normandie, hustler and hawaiin gardens.) limits i played were $6/$12 NL and $8/$16 NL. i'm down almost $1,400 but not because of 'donk' play. during the see-saw sessions, i saw truly amazing beats (and NO this isn't a complaining thread about bad beats).

 example: flopped a boat, only to be beat by quad Qs on the turn. flopped a set, only to be turned and beaten by a bigger boat. my mid set rivered by a higher set. and on and on it went. my question is this: what was your worse run? how long did it last and did it put u on tilt?

 i didn't "tilt" per se, but i did continue to buy-in because the action and pots were so huge. they were juicy games, but i just couldn't get AA or KK to hold up, etc. u know the story......

$1400 at those limits isn't that bad. That's like one buy-in.

lost with quad nines on the flop to runner runner quads, after that i had 2 months of beat after beat after beat, i was doing so horrid  i got quads beaten again at the river...!At the same casino in the same 10/20 table only after 2 weeks from 1st quad-tastrofe!

 lost quite a bit playin 10/20 deepstacked, had to take a break for 2 months or i would of busted my bankroll (which i kinda did anyways), thank god for the break.

I did learn that even  if u think ur not on tilt, its insane to want to keep getting ur ass handed to you when u keep playing after a bad run, best advice take a break

See my post.  That all happened tonight.  Pretty bad.  Can't remember many worse.
