The Stop Winning... stopped

Well, I stopped winning this weekend.  But I attribute this to a little bit of tilt, and quite of bit of loose play.  I did manage to recover somewhat, but I am still down $100.

Also, I sadly passed on a pot that could reasonably have made me a lot of $:  QQTT, I had to pass when the preflop betting grew too large.  But considering my implied odds based on my INITIAL investment, I could have easily made the call of $80 to win $320 (4:1).  In all actuality, my odds were $30 (initial invested) to win $320, just under 12:1.  Not quite the proper odds.  Assuming that a Q or T would have to show to give me a win, I need about 13:1 pot odds to overcome possible straights, flushes, and oversets.  Ah well, better thinking next time.
