Oops

Must have jinxed myself with that stupid post last night. Today I lost 5 game in a row, the first of which was to someone who did not know the rules of Omaha/8. They understood the 2 cards from the hand part but had no concept of how the low works. Another game, I had a guy all in and he ended up hitting perfect runner runner to scoop the pot when he was on his way to getting nothing on the flop. Basically I had him dominated on the high and low and it came 3 and then 5 to make his 24 good for the wheel. Of course he then came back and won the tournament.

Right now I'm in that frame of mind that I was in while in San Diego where I am expecting horrible things to happen when I play. I finally managed to salvage my last game, so I'm going to stop on a positive note and play again later. It seems like whenever I am almost within reaching distance of a goal, I go on a nosedive. A couple of wins today would have put me at $4000 on Full Tilt, so I immediately lose 5 in a row and now I'm a long ways away from 4k again.

UPDATE: Just lost two more, both to people who were rated as "fish" on Sharkscope. On the last one the flop comes JJ3 giving me a boat. We get it all in, and I know he has the jack and will suckout with a higher boat. He shows JK4x and ends up hitting a king on the turn, and I'm finished. In the previous game the guy was raising the pot on 100% of hands pre flop, then betting the pot on the flop. I can never beat these maniacs. Finally after folding most my hands I got into a situation where I flopped top pair with a flush draw and decent low draw. He pots it, I re-pot it, and of course he re-pots it and I know he has absolutely nothing. He turns over a higher flush draw and a couple of overcards, with no low draw. He hits one of his over's on the turn and I don't make my low. End of story. So so bad!
