Default I don't know what to do anymore

These high cards are killing me. Had pocket AA busted 6 times 2 days ago...two pair Aces and 8's when called my all-in flop by a Ace with three kicker...the board went 4 hearts and his 3 was a heart. Just had my pre-flop KK cracked when I milked 4 players for 200 chips each then finally went re-raise all-in pre-flop and called by 66 and he hit a 7 high straight. Had KK and AA cracked on me yesterday At least with small cards you don't get busted, but big cards are killers....If you don't bet them strong then you let too many in the pot to get lucky on you...so you isolate to one opponent and they still get lucky on you!

I can win hands with small cards...but i get busted with big cards.

Hey crapshoot go see 1 of those witch doctors you know the ones that rub poison ivey on you, pour liquor on you, then spit fire on you. I think it will turn around for you after a visit with 1 of these whammy doctors.

Are poker stars coming up to an accounting period or something? I've been getting the most horrendous bad beats for a month now ...yeah never-ending is a phrase I've used too - amongst others less suitable for forums.
I can't even bring myself to put a smiley at the end of my post - I can't quite believe what's been happening.

Don't like to moan about bad beats...well I do in private lol...oh well, move on and hope things turn around....

Sounds like nothing more than bad luck and bad beats bro. Nothing much you can do but play through it.

Only suggestion I have, is maybe don't commit all your chips all the time, ie. going all-in.
