....and still getting f'd in the A!
Last night, OMG, Last night.
I'm play in a Micro-Mil tourney on PS (5.50 NLHE)
I get the following hands within about 10 deals....
AA - CRACKED
KK - CRACKED
AA - win blinds only on a simple call of the BB
QQ - CRACKED
*sigh*
I went all in with 9-4 out of frustration the following hand, flopped a boat. DOH!! Luck favors idiots.
welcome to the Poker Circus......:)
Im with you...My hole is sore...:)
I hear you guys. Variance is a bitch. I went on a bad downswing today. Speaking of which FUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCKKKKKKK. just got second. I hate second place. Anyways, ended the night pretty well with a 1st and a 2nd in two mtt's. Need some more run good, because these micro's suck.
Sounds like what happens to me every day.
Thats bad luck indeed, but better days will come.... hopefully.
Theres your odds at work(25%). You will get hit by lightning first before them 4 hands lose. I say 4 cause winning the blinds with AA is a loss lol 1 out of 4 with premiums is what online is good at.you should have won at the least 3 out of 4(75%) odds wise but online has a way of skewing them odds for sure!!
Alternatively you could be happy you got 3 premiums cracked within a 10 hand span and still managed to have chips behind.
yes. how the fk did you survive that many bad beats. I had a tourney like that cept I won every hand with the premiums - I quickly went to $45k in chips - wound up taking 2nd when Ishold have taken 1st so Im still pissed but hey - this makes me feel a lot better. I coulda donked out in 3 hands (maybe 2 LOL)
I'll take 2nd place if anyone doesn't want it.
How did I survive? I was top 25% at the 2 hr mark (when registration finally closed. 2 hr late reg? God i hate that). Had a sizable chip lead and I'm not one dumbasses who thinks you have to go ALL IN every time you get a pair.
First two cases I made standard raises, and got called All-In by short stacks.
The third, I limped and everyonne folded.
The QQ I got donked by the donkiest donk that ever donked.
The 9 -4, I said f'it and donked myself and took down three other stacks.
This table was nuts.
sometimes it is not skill game.. sometimes it is just card game and you cant avoid to it...
Don't I know it Weenie.
I am always reminding myself that even the best pairs mean nothing until the flop... and even then suckouts happen all the time. Going All in seems to invite problems so I tend to bet and eliminate oposition in the trenches (not always though, I mix it up effectively I think).
This one game though.... you have no idea how frustrated I was.
This will become my personal VENT thread.
So it's gone from losing to randonm donks with crads to just ouright painfull losses. So far today in no lesss then 5 tournaments in a row I have gone down to someone elses pocket aces. It is uncanny. Every time it comes down to a showdown today BAM!! They have pocket aces.
I decided to walk away for a few hours. I was killing this week in the Micro-Millions, but now..... I just don't know.
