Cards Running Dry?

Yeah so another session went by with no wins posted. Only lost a few bucks over 2 hours. I guess that's still not bad. I was playing the $25NL game today to see what I got. I will say this, some players even if they are loose seem a bit more aggressive. There are still so many fish. One guy I caught was bluffing 72s on a board he completely missed. I noticed he kept making huge raises on the flop almost every hand so I figured he was most likely making a stone cold bluff. I had top pair so I called his all-in and doubled up. One guy played his trip 8s very soft and didn't make me pay him off. One leak in my game is definitely doing the betting for people that wouldn't normally make me pay them off. I have to learn to check in more spots.

Yeah no winnings for me either, down a few bucks, I went down when I started, then I tighted up and started playing better, someone went all in, no one called him he won, very next hand he did the same thing, with me hitting JJ I didn't hesitate, he had garbage and I took it down. Then I started seeing myself reach for the pots, and staying in pots I know I need to just get out of, I tilted very quickly made some bad bets, and if I wouldn't have done that I would have broke even, I quickly closed the tables without even waiting for blinds and walked away.

Ouch, down $6.42 mainly because of this hand right here... Couldn't get cards at all tonight, VP was very low cause just getting junk all night. Played almost two hours hoping this would change 4 tables at a shot. Well this is the one time below where I have KK and someone hits AA, and other person has JJ and flops a set...let me know if you think this is wrong below, KK is always an automatic all in for me pre flop, is that wrong?

Well went back on, made up what I lost in the first 2 minutes, actually past it but then went back down, then back up, made 1.75, same amount I paid out in rake almost..haha, but at least I'm back in the green today and that's what I'm shooting for at this point.
