A bad session (Just venting!)

This month has been swingy to say the least. After 40k hands I'm up about $1200. I played a session Saturday night across $2-$4, $3-$6, and $5-$10 nl and nothing went right. To be honest it wasn't a disaster because I've had worse sessions before (in terms of money lost) but I'm just going to post some beats I took...well, just for the heck of it and to show I run worse than anybody!! (jk of course). First my graph of the session...























Now a couple of things I'll point out is that I did win a few hands to avoid a really bad night, including this hand where I was gifted some money...

The other point is that it was really a night of not just running below ev ($3500 below ev) but the hands where I got coolered that weren't even shown in the ev line because most of the money went in at the river, including these (again really no educational purposes, just venting!)...

Kinda standard but sucks we were about 200bbs deep. I could've just called at the river but I tend to err on the side of aggression, so whatever.

I guess I'll just point out villain's turn raise is pretty bad because there's really nothing he can beat if I'm calling there. It's ok because for some reason he got rewarded for it.

These next 2 are doozies...
