wow, worst 2 sng's of my life today. Sheesh, not 20 hands between the 2. Does anyone fold preflop anymore?

I think i'm moving to mtt's exclusively now. Play is too ridiculous in the sng's.

10x BB raise preflop holding AA, and get reraised all in by chip leaders. Duh, no brainer right.

First time A7o hits 776 on the flop and I don't improve. Second time J2c hits 2J2.

Both times they said they thought I was stealing. I know it happens but wow.

Oh well.

Hate to tell ya, but the MTTs aren't always any better about calling big raises. Happened to me just last night in a $40 pay-out freeroll. I kid you not, very first hand someone goes all in (which is not a surprise) and he gets called by two players (again not that unusual). Initial all-in won the hand with pocket As (a rarity). Second hand, same guy goes all in and gets called again by a player. Again he's holding a pocket pair (Ks) and the caller is holding absolute garbage that isn't even suited. K's won again (at least he was going all in with the best hand both times). Third hand, same guy tries it again, and once again he gets called. By the end of this hand he has single handedly taken out four players and quadrupled his stack. Fourth hand must have been garbage though, he folded pre-flop.
