This all went to long and to bad and sometimes it also feels that i get to many bad beats in important situations on the table.Now i had always bad runs since i started with poker but right now it feels like i cant beat anything.
I will cut my first sessions in the day time and focus for a while on long session with mtts and non turbo Sngs.Got much more skill in this games and hopefully i can recover and find self confidence there again.
I hope also that Stars stop now changing daily the Sngs Schedule is really a shame how unprofessional they work as the biggest site on Internet Poker.
I found a very funny story on 2+2 will copy that inside here.
Have fun with it.

Lol at the way this has all been handled. Just who the hell came up with these crazy ideas, and then who the hell approved them. I mean, what was the process?
(Late night High level board Meeting, Pokerstars headquarters)
"Right guys, the DOJ are crawling all over us, we are either gonna have to shell out Billions in fines or Billions doing a deal just to stay alive. And we just lost the whole of North America. We gotta raise more revenue and fast! Any ideas?"
(Guy mopping the floors in the corridor)
"Er, excuse me but I think I can help"
(Chairman of the board)
"Let's hear it!"
(Guy puts down mop)
"Well, you know those Sit n Go thingy's? This is what you need to do. You need to raise the rake %age on all these games with lower buy ins and at the same time lower the buy in"
(Chairman)
"I see, so that way not only do all our winning regular players take a drastic pay cut, but we also get less revenue, because for example, every $6.50 game where we used to earn 50 cents we now earn just 43 cents, thus losing 7 cents for every game played at that level. Interesting, tell me more"
(Mop guy)
"OK. Next you need to radically alter the structure of all these tournaments and put in a 45 second time bank to confuse the hell out of everybody and radically decrease traffic in these games. This way your loyal regular winners will make even less money and you will lose even more rake revenue"
(Chairman)
"Brilliant. Anything else?"
(Mop Guy)
"Just one more thing Sir. Get that Steve fella to put his job on the line by telling all these really smart poker players, that all these changes are a great benefit to everyone. And make sure he mentions a number of times that Pokerstars is decreasing the rake!"
(Chairman)
"Genius!", "Oh young man, I didn't catch your name?"
(Mop guy)
"My name Sir?. Er, it's Lederer Sir, Howard Lederer Sir"
(Chairman)
"Well Lederer, I'll see to it that you get a promotion. These new ideas of yours are really gonna sink that Full Tilt mob!"
