Unfortunately the best hand will not always hold up in the game of poker. The best hand can't always win, and where does bluffing come into this?

Yeah I have been there as well. I find though that in mtts you have to maximize the times you run good 2 counter the run bad. I for sure have run very badly lately, but I made a top 60 run in the Sunday 15k and didn't maximize my run. I look back at a few hands that I think I played sub-optimally. That's not to say I played them poorly at all because I didn't. But I could have played a little better and given myself a shot at a FT. So yeah.... run bad is a big part of the game, but it's more about the long haul. I know people who have played 1k games plus that are up a few thousand who aren't any good. In mtts I thing 5k games plus is a better barometer, and even then you have to analyze where the profit came from.
I think 5k is a little much to get an idea of things. yeah in the long run it will be a good barometer but for most thats years of playing to reach that amount
I take beats and I give them right back, all part of the game.
you can say that again
maybe you should just stop playing or quit whining, one or the other.
I don't remember the last time I've 3 outered anyone. I just don't get my money in that bad.
The same often happens to me as well. Once i had full house after river (i was playing pocket aces btw) but some donk busted me with quads on river(he were playin J-4 off-suited...lol..and he caught quad-4)
you know what is getting old. the motherfucking spurs keep whoopping the dubbs ass. i am just tired of it.
