3 for the 10 in coinflips the past 2 days, that's I don't even care.

Honest to god...2 for 14 in our last 3 outer hands(AK v AQ). Lost the last 7 in a row & all of them have been in crucial moments on the bubble or 5 handed. These are all in pre-flop....

Not to mention losing numerous 4:1s & KK v Q3.

Just venting move a long....

sounds like you're having the same kind of week I am. As it stands right now, if I don't have the nuts, I best not put my money in. Because any out my opponent has, they will hit

I'm so glad to hear you big-dogs have sucky days too. I came back after a week off and won my first 3 SNGs. Haven't been able to break 4th place since and its been 2 week. I play 2-3 SNGs a day and this "slump"(?) sucks.

Hope it gets better soon...for all of us.

Well...my slump is over. Just won a 5.50 SNG. Hope this is the start of a new rush.

Ok, adding to the list:

AA v J8 all in pre-flop, he makes a 4 card flush, runner runner. Laughing

AQ v A7, both of us with top pair and all in on the flop, 7 on the river Laughing

So brings it to 9 in a row

AQ v K7 while ITM pre-flop, well that happens, nonetheless the streak continues..

KQ v J2, once again it happens, but the streak continues.

& K10 v Q2 on the bubble to get ITM..nope, it continues.

I suppose I'm whining, just let this be a private vent post. I really don't care about bad beats I've been playing long enough to know they happen a ton, but I have never had a streak of more critical and consistent beats(ITM, bubble, 5 handed).

UrbanMeyer1 · Posted: Thu Aug 25, 2005 12:08 pm Post subject:

yup, next SNG KK v AK, continues the streak Laughing

I promise I'll stop posting if it ever stops.
