Does anyone have any tips for beating 4NL on Carbon Poker

I am currently down $35 over 11k hands

All of the big pots I get in I lose with second best hands, I am sometimes able to lay them down but when it keeps happening it seems like I am paying off people because I think there is no way I can keep coming up short

It seems like every session I play I get up a certain amount and then 1 hand comes up and I lose basically my whole stack on that one hand and everything I had done over the last hour doesn't matter

I do not know if I am running bad or if I am playing bad

In a lot of these spots I feel like I am beat but for some reason I call, how often can the villain have the one hand that can beat me... shouldn't be as often as it is happening

Has anyone else experienced this, can you give me some guidance or tips...

I hope that I am not so bad that I can't even beat 4NL, I work on my game daily and am really trying to get better

Thanks,

I guess your big issue is that you are not getting enough from your own winning hands, if you did then you could handle these things easily presuming you have decent opening ranges.

The type of spots I am talking about are:
Having pocket aces against one player on a 252 with 2 clubs and I have the A of clubs
I bet villain calls turn comes another club
I bet villain calls rives comes K of clubs
I bet get raised and I think really? A boat, I call and the villain shows KK

These type of spots happen very often to me, if this happened once I could possibly fold but over and over makes it really hard to believe they have such a hand

Click to expand...

Seems that you are in a downswing.Dont worry. Just keep playing , it will be over soon.There will be sessions where you will make 30$ per 2k hands.
