So far I've been pretty doing pretty good within the last month in building my bankroll. I went from $50 to $130 in less then a month, I know this isn't as fast as some people make money but I've had a lot of up ups and downs. For the last week or so I have been losing everything I played. MTT's, HU, SNG's, ring pot limit, fixed, and no limit holdem, and ring omaha. I haven't been playing any worse than I usualy play, maybe I have though I just don't see it, I'm not really sure but to me it doesn't seem like I'm playing any different. I usually play a little over my bankroll but play at something that won't make me go broke but somewhere where I'm comfortable playing. So far within the last couple week or so I've gone from $130 to $72 back up to $120 then falling all the way down to $38. This might be because I'm playing a lot more $4 180 person sng's and less cash games. But last night I went back to play $.10/$.25(I know, over my BR) cash games and just lost a lot of my money to similar situations as this.

If you're wondering why I called all the way down the river is because I was getting WAY to good of odds to lay it down.
It seems like most hands that I'm in people are doing this exact same thing. Betting with nothing, raising with nothing, going all in when they didn't even hit a flop. In this situation I'm getting good odds to call here but the guy could have a lot of different types of hands that easily beat me. I've also been at the table for probably around 20 hands or so and I haven't seen this person once go all in, plus he hasn't been playing too many pots. Is it because I'm playing scared and figure that people have a better hand then me?
Thank god that my sign up bonus came in last night and I'm back up to $85 now. I need a couch or something to teach me stuff lol. I've decided I'm going to stop playing for a while and only play micro mtt's and freerolls, I'm just going to go back and read my books until I feel like I've improved my game and BR to go back to playing bigger games.
Sorry for the rant and sorry if a lot of it is written kind of choppy, I'm still a little tired and aggravated from the last couple of weeks.
