being knocked out early on a bad beat, or being knocked out later on in the tournament on a bad beat?
you could make arguments either way. i'm voting for early, because it just happened to me (my aa losing to an aj that made a straight,) but part of that is the fact that i didn't really even get the liberty of enjoying the SNG i was playing for more than 5 minutes. the other side of the story is being knocked out by a bad beat late, like on the bubble, and being aggravated that all your hard work went for nothing |

good Q but i dont think i could vote either way because both are terrible lol.
Beaten early sux cause ya MAYBE oyu oculd run the tourney out if ya
get a stack and chance.
beaten late sux cause as ya said all that time and effort to go to nothing
good poll though and should trigger some thought
(actualy id vote now early) because id rather be out then spend 2 hours
just ot catch a bad beat unless i hit a money spot first) |

Well, if i had to pick one, i guess it is worse to bust out late in the tourney before the money. If i bust out early in a tourney, it likely means i was all in with the best hand and was outdrawn. Nothing i can do about that. I won't really risk my stack early in a tourny unless i know i have the best of it.
Busting late really sucks. It means you are probably getting low stacked and forced to go in with a mediocre hand |

If you read the original post, you would see he is talking about going out on the bubble late in a tournament. |
