these hands, (even the A4) are not that far behind AK, so losing is commonplace, especially if you play a lot of STTs and get HU. I"d try recording 100 of these hands and see how often you come out on top.

If you are still convinced that you always lose, then you need to be folding AK in this spot and look to start raising all in with trash ;D ;)

thats a good idea about recording the hands at HU and see how it goes

to quote rounders

In "Confessions of a Winning Poker Player," Jack King said, "Few players recall big pots they have won, strange as it seems, but every player can remember with remarkable accuracy the outstanding tough beats of his career." It seems true to me, cause walking in here, I can hardly remember how I built my bankroll, but I can"t stop thinking of how I lost it.
