Have you ever tried playing, just after you’ve made a cash withdrawal from one of the poker sites you are playing at?
Well i did, just a small sum, but even so my play has become extremely bad(or have i just been unlucky?)

How can this “bad luck” be avoided after a withdrawal?….
there’s a few things that may work:
not playing at all for a while
playing extremely tight
or just withdrawing the total sum.

Can’t reallt tell what works best until next withdrawal, but im pretty sure im not the only one having this problem!

Double up sngs are nice for building stacks or just making a few bucks from.

Start off easy, and try avoid going all in even with high pairs as this is the phase off the game where you can get called with anything. I doesnt know how many times ive lost with a high pair in the first few hands, against a donk calling with absolute trash.

Let a few players get knocked out, while trying to avoid to big losses to your stack.

Dont play to many drawing hands, and if you do you should try avoid going all in unless nuts, or having a damn lot of outs.

dont pick fights with bigstacks,unless absolutely necessary and if you do expect to be pushed around.

When you are i position (sb or button) you can try to do some steals from the smallstacks.

Ok, at least i had the patience to play a tourney properly without tilting halfway trough.

It even paid off too some degree, winning $100 for a 3 rd place might not be so much, its just nice to know that one can make it into the top.

Even made it to 24 place in another tourney day after where top 40 got paid, not high prizes but i was smallstacked almost through the whole tourney, and wasnt even getting any good cards.

But of course tournaments are a total different game from limit cash games, and even double up sngs.

Been a while since ive written anything now, but anyone who thinks ive quit playing poker is wrong.
Mostly ive been playing double up sngs, and of course as always when ive played too many of those I wind up losing a few because i lose my focus.

Ive always been trying out a few of the casino games a lot gaming sites offers, i expect it has had a bad influence on my poker game.But still they it is kind of hypnotice to watch the wheel spin, while one waits for the really big prize.

After some good play today i managed to double my bankroll(way too small) at one of the sites i play,
with playing a mix of double up sngs and limit cashgames.
Mostly i played 0.25/0.50 euro and 2.50 euro buyin sngs.

Today i tried a 2k gp, with $3.30 buy in, about 1000 people had joined, played tight and hoped to get some hands but ofcourse no hands came.

Still managing to have a stack of 1500 chips which was the same as the initial stack, when we were about halfway through.

Finally i get a hand, JJ, and i raises All in and some donkey calls with QJ suited, hits the Q on the flop and soon its all over.
