Hi all,
recently I've made a few failed deposits on full tilt, and 1 on unabomber (failed meaning went bust), just having bad runs on $1 and $2 sng's, i know i'm running real bad after $75 worth of deposits across these sites, but now i've started playing scared. I'm afraid to raise off the button with marginal hands like Q10s incase i get reraised and have to lay it down, or i'm just open folding KQs from late position because i don't feel right about it, yet may decide to shove my stack later on with 56s or 78s. If I hit on the flop TPTK or 2 pair, and the LAG maniac shoves the blank turn, i can't help but fold, and they'll show me a bluff, or a worse hand than my own. However before this, I could see through a bluff and call down with middle pair or hit a draw and extract value, but nothing seems to be hitting. I think i'm running bad, playing bad and lost all confidence, and have went from being an aggressive, confident winning player, to a weak passive loser. My ROI on sharkscope for full tilt is now negative when it was between 1-3% before (which is small i know, but better than -%). What do others do when faced with a problem like this. I've went to stars now with a $20 deposit so that if i drop below $15 i can play in the 10c and 25c MTSnG's.
Also one other thing, if i play HU SnG's which I used to be really good at, I've gotten into the strategy of checking EVERY flop on my (big blind/deal?) and giving up if i miss, even with what could be the best hand like a low PP or high Ace. I'm really not doing well at the moment and need to change things up, my question to you is, HOW?
