I play a lot of home games with my friends. i dont mean to sound conceided, but i am playing on a whole different level than some of them. Lately it seems like no matter how i play i lose with an amazing string of bad luck. I can play every hand perfect and everytime on the river i will get screwed. When this happens i generally go on tilt, and end up losing more and more even though i continue to play perfect. i will pre-flop raise with excellent hands just to get beat by someone who played something awful pre-flop. i could have AK suited and bet 5x the blind and will get called by something like 84 offsuit and end up losing to 2 pair or trips. and lately this has happened literally every hand i’ve played. I guess my question is how do i overcome such bad luck? i know sometimes poker is 90% skill and 10% luck and sometimes its 90% luck and 10% skill, but latly it seems like its 100% luck for everyone else. Any suggestions on how i can possibly turn this around would be great.

I watch texas hold em all the time and the pros are always playing for big money, and I wonder. What do you have to do to become a pro. Also, do you have to pay to get in tournaments. I like poker a lot and I was wondering what the chances of me are of becoming a pro. I am 16 by the way. I don’t have a gambling problem and I usually play online and sometimes with friends.
I wanted to get Texas Calculatem but a friend of mine insists Calculatem Pro is better.
