3 tourneys lost in a row. I literally did not win won hand postflop (I looked this up to be sure). Not one hand except for a couple blind steals.
In the fourth tourney, I called the shortest stack shove with TT. He had A7 and hit his ace on the turn. This put me under 6BB.
I won a few preflop shoves, and then this hand from the big blind.

Two pair against an aggressive player. Nice. I'll check and hope he bets.
Turn: (400) 5

Hero bets 240, CO calls 240
Ok, gotta bet now. I'm of course calling if he shoves.
River: (880) 7

Hero bets 725 and is All-In, CO calls 725
Flush came in, oh well. I'm not folding to a shove with two pair, so I might as well shove myself.

CO showed 8


When villain showed his runner-runner straight flush, I swear to God - I got dizzy, my stomach turned, and my vision started to spin. I felt nauseous and looked down, putting my head in my hands. This lasted for about a minute, until I could look up again without feeling like I needed to vomit.
Be clear - I am not just saying these things for dramatic effect. The poker gods kicked the shit out me tonight, and I felt physically sick afterwards. That's some strong stuff.
Fortunately, I get a break from the online world, as my cash game is tomorrow night. It's been a very bad week.

Live game is a good chance to regroup. Forget about how you've been running and remember that you are way better than those at your game.
GL in the live game. It is more fun anyway.
