Terrible Week Continues Live (2/6/2011)

The terrible week continues. I really don't have anything that has gone well for me during the past week, poker or personal life for that matter.
Lost a good amount playing 2-5 this weekend. Around -$600. So much for the good start. I played good and stayed disciplined, just nothing could go right. One of those weeks man. All three nights I lost money actually. -$380, -$120, and -$140. I believe only the second net loss weekend live since I've started grinded around late October. Came at a bad time though.
The variance in 2-5 can be crazy. A lack of action was certainly not the problem Thursday-Saturday for me. Just nothing could go right. Like the Saturday session. All in on the turn with top pair ace, queen kicker. Fish rivers the flush draw with about 19% equity. There goes an over $500 pot.
Then comes the next buy in. I dwindle down some. Eventually I pick up a spot and shove a complete maniacs open $180 all in. HE CALLS ME BLIND. I'm not kidding, he called my $160 raise preflop blind, without looking at his hand. He was wearing a 20k rolex so meant nothing to him, sort of funny guy though.
He turns over 33, wow not bad for playing a hand blnid there.
FLOP A, 3, T
GG lmao. At the time I wasn't even mad, I just laughed said good hand and moved on.
So the next buy in for $200 I ended up chipping up to $570 until I left past 5 a.m still down -$140 on the night. Just so many mind-blowing situations that went completely wrong for me. Very sick.
Also sucked out of the quarterly million SN tournament all in with the typical 2 outer just missing a pay-out.
Did some studying today, haven't even logged a hand yet. Have some decisions to make online, but it depends where the action goes. Might have stack 100NL a while, and when/if that goes really bad move to 50NL. Or keep nova status minimum while switching sites. Not even sure if keeping that status is worth it right now.
I just need to stay focused and make sure the personal shit doesn't leak over into my poker game, that is really the last thing I need. Need to find some motivation and remain strong right now.
