That AQ hand Isn't really sick, and all the money went in when you were beat. The other hand was just an open end straight draw that hit so it's not unlucky at all.
To be honest my question is, at 10/20 c blinds why are you playing with 70 dollars?

So it's been going better. The hell it has. Been playing for hours and hours, barely break-even, especially today, and just now in the last 5 minutes I lost 6 stacks. Same shit all over again. The most remarkable thing about it all is that I never win. I just grind and grind and grind, and for what? 12 hours of play to win 2-3 stacks and lose two or three times that much in five minutes. Advices like "just keep your chin up and play well" don't help. I did that, tried it several times and I'm still losing. I know it's just variance, but what I don't understand is why I always run several BI under EV, and when I run above EV it's always just a few big blinds...
well my friend... had a similar thread a week or two ago(u even threw in a few kind words)... so i know just how you feel... and no... it still has not turned around... so it is lasting this whole goddamn month of july... no chin up no nothing... just grind and hope u don`t lose all of ur confidence in your knowledge, cuz then it get really hard and melancholy and depression kick in...
hehehe i know... so corny 
obviously bob marley wasnt a poker grinder, he wouldn't be such a chillaxed guy 
kinda hard what to say here, coz I never had an upswing in my life, after 12months of poker, my only good days were, when i won the flips, when i won vs 6, 3 and 2 outers..basically thats it..i cant explain why it happend only 4-5days, when a year has 365 days and any hand vs a 6, 3, 2 outer is ahead, and flips should be flips, so ...even if a flip is 20% I should have got around 70 good days...but..it was only 4-5..dont know what to say, maybe try out to go for the nonshowdown profit on playing less tables..its more risky, but if there's no showdown, there's no suckout...the only thing I can think of is this..
