Well, although I have still managed to have another winning week, this one has me on the verge of major life-tilt. I am currently running well over $600 US below my EV line. Obviously this is extremely aggravating, especially when you have a smallish time-frame of 1 month to try and put up great results. I am trying to stay positive, and I certainly am getting better about not whining about results, but it is still difficult. Here is a small sample of some of the BS I have endured in the last 24 hours:

As you can see, it has been nothing but "LOL RIGGED" for the last little bit. I am definitely discovering that it takes a special type of person to be able to continue making optimal plays regardless of what the monetary results are. When things are going bad in a session even though you have gotten your money in good over and over, you need to either control your anger or stop playing. I can say I am thankful for the opportunity to practice this skill. It really is a truly hard profession, and anybody who thinks otherwise is obviously a grade A moran. Anyways, I am probably going to play live right now for a little break, so here is my graph and totals so far:
Ouch
