More steps

OK I'm doing game by game updates here so I can vent. lol

I'm really disliking the steps cause they play so horrible and I run even worse. Game 1 I lose AK to KJ, AJ to K9, and 5 handed I shove 13BBs A5 and BB wakes up with 99. Flop is X42 giving me the draw, turn 9 and river blanked. Next I lose AQ to JJ and A8 to 86 for 6th. 4th after moron calls a shove with ATo 4 handed v/s CL when he was 3rd place and won the race and then his 73 beats my Q4 when he rivers a gutshot straight. Next a 5th when I shove AQ and get called by TT by CL. Finally get a win. Then next game I win AA v/s KQ 5 handed. Next I got short and bubbled in 5th again.

Finally a break. 5 handed I have 8BBs and shove SB with A3. Obv BB has JJ and I catch running 3s to dbl through and cripple him. I got the win there. Next game 6 handed KK < 55 river 5. Then the blinds went up as they came to me 2 hands later so I went from a 30BB stack to 12. Had a feeling my KK was no good when we got it in there though. Figured I was racing AJ or something. No spots afterward and I blinded off to 4BBs and shove 55 UTG and lost to AJo.

Next game I just got no spots and blinded down. Ran 55 into 88 6 handed. 5 handed I run AT into AQ and bubble. JJ < AQ 7 handed btn v/s BB when he shoves my blind. OMG i got a win?!?! Follow that up with a 4th when I shove J8s in SB and BB insta calls 66 for his life and I flop a GS and miss everything. Wow 5 handed I have like 6BBs and shove TT UTG 4th place calls with KK and I flop T! Then I get walk with AA in BB :-( 4 handed QQ < ATo.

Just found out cradshark_ is a PXF sub that I've been running into. Just took anther win. Day is starting to look up a lil. Also been able to net almost $100 by buying W$. OK in my last game now we're 5 handed and big stack has dbled both shorties A9 <> K9 and I'm back to 4th. Folded down to 2BBs trying to get a hand or hope someone blows up and had to call all in Q8s in BB v.s 44 and flop 883 v/s 3rd place. I have a small lead on him now. Shove Q9 he calls K2 flop AKT, turn Q. I'm down to under 1BB. I gte a split in 3 way pot. QQ in SB 2 limps to me and BB checks. board comes 4865A and I'm out. I hate my life.

Totals on the day:
Games: 17
Wins: 4
4ths: 4
5ths: 5
6ths: 3
7-9s: 1

Only bright spot is I cashed all 5 of my last games. But 3 of them were 4ths and 2 were suckouts to cripple me.

And an update on the coaching site. They claim that the application I filled out listed that the hourly rate they pay coaches is $15/hr. I don't see that in the copy that was e-mailed to me and I definitely wouldn't have signed up for that rate. That's horrible since they are charging $50/hr. Them making 2/3 of the fee for hosting a website and advertising is really a joke. Especially since they are wanting coaches logged in for several hour a day waiting to get a student to pick the coach for a session. It might be different if someone could just schedule an appointment. Still wouldn't make their payments fair imo.
