Went on tilt

Well, I lost it again. I lost composure tonight. I hadn't lost composure for at least a week on the poker table. Even when things were going bad that one day, I still didn't lose it like I did tonight. Earlier in the day I signed up at a new poker site. Well, things went bad in the beginning. KK lost to A9. KK lost A J . ETC ETC. I still wasn't angry . I go back to my absolute favorite site. I go to a nice table. I get A K . I raise. Someone reraises me preflop. Ok, I call . I check to him and he bets big and I fold putting him on a medium pocket pair. Ok, no problem. I play 6 7 in mp because I like to mix my game up a little. Flop: 6 A 7 . I bet the pot and I get reraised ....I fold...thinking ok maybe he has A 7 or A 6 .
Then I get KK and I raise in BB. Two callers. Flop is 2 5 6 . I bet 3/4th the pot = $8 . I get reraised and LP guy calls for all his chips. I'm like WTF. This is the 3rd hand and 3rd time I've been reraised with a decent hand on the flop . Pot is about $30 and I decide to push my $40 stack in and he calls and show 2 5 suited. I don't play 2 5 suited. I don't play any 2 5 at all let alone to a raise. I sit there pissed. I rebuy immediately. No one gets the best of me. I see his stack as grown from around 70 to 115 and that is my money he has. I'm pissed. He goes on a raising spree. I call everyone one of them with J 8 , 9 T , anything to bust him. I don't though as I miss the flop completely. I call a few more raises with junk and realize what I'm doing and log out. I sit there for about 10 minutes to try to relax. I finally relax enough that I feel I can play some more. I end up going to another table and getting A A and doubling up and making all the money back but I should have never lost the money to begin with and it is hurting my EV. Ok, story over. Later.
