I Just Want To Throw Up

Swingy month. So far I managed to make a profit, then lose enough to dip below the break even line for the month, win enough to make a profit again, and then today I dropped a bunch, putting me just below the break even line.

This is typical of the way things have been going for the last few months. This hand is vs a player who has been constantly 3betting and limp re-raising me preflop, or floating me like crazy postflop. All of my big losing hands from today were vs this player. Disgustingly enough, he's been playing nearly any two cards. Here's the biggest hand where I get the money in good and he stacks off with something really marginal considering the action facing him...

Just gotta love how I go from an 85% favorite to a 81.6 to 18.2% to 0%. Just wonderful.
