moved to non turbo 10s and still running bad

I moved to the 10 non turbos 1 tabling for now. With my rakeback I had 200 in my account so I'll give it 5 buy ins here and see how I do.

I get this incredidonk worst player I've ever seen. Beats me in game 1 getting lucky on e huge hand then shoves 20BBs with K3 and my JJ is no good. Rematch I get KQ and he calls. I fop JT9 and he calls down J2 and catches a 4 flush with his 2. Seriously sick how bad I'm running. Then I get KK and he calls down pot bets on the flop and turn with Q8s and rivers a flush and tells me I'm a donk when on the river we have 1/5 the pot in our stacks lol

Get him down short and we both flop trip 4s he has me outkicked and talks trash lol I love poker sometimes. Moron just calls down and catches like every river. Had him down to 300 at 10/20 and now he has 1K at 15/30. Finally beat him he calls down 92 on T96Q2 board and I had set of 6s. Went 4-4 against him. Least I got even - the rake.

I actually won 6 in a row at one point. The I get a donk who just continues to all or bet his way to the river every hand and get there. Hard to explain but he always had a hand if he got to the river even if he had to river btm trips or something. Couldn't bet him off a hand, if you raised he love to 3 bet, but then a lot of times he was so passive just calling down weak pairs and cathing up with whatever I had to win at showdown. Like he get all in A2 v/s my AT and the board comes AKJKT to split when I was short and needed that double up. He'd call huge bets on flush draws. I just couldn't get enough hands to value bet him like I needed. But if its possible the regular players seem much worse than the turbo players. Maybe its a combo of them being worse and me 1 tabling so I notice more about their play. lol @ this hand in our 3rd match lvl 1 he 3 bets 44 and checks down a K62QJ board. I had QJ and 1/2 pot river and he insta calls lolz

Had another donk who literally never raised pre, called down btm pair or gutshots and rivered so many of them it was unreal. I could bet 3 streets and he's min raise river and show me btm trips, gutshots, and even a FH once when I had flopped mid pair + FD. He'd nevre fold an Acew on the flop regardless of the flop. Couple of these villians should go buy some lottery tickets tonight seriously. He got me down to 350 at 25/50 and I kept my head and my focus and came back to win. Longest HU battle I've ever had I think.

Overall I went 12-6. $50 profit so I recovered 1/2 my losses. I only played 1 table which is boring and I did my best to stay off the browser as much as possible. We'll see how 1 tabling goes though I think I played much better and focuses more on my opponents. Also I didn't try to push as many edges. I tried playing a lot of small pots unless I had a huge hand as well.
