Im not usually one to complain about the sometimes questionable cards that come out on this site, but tonight i feel completely cheated. How do you lose to 2 outers twice in THREE hands. I counted, the tourney lasted over 2 hours for me and i had 23 playable hands, im including suited connectors in here. Finally were at the bubble and i get ace jack suited, and call a guy all in who has QJ. His queen hits the flop, followed by my ace, followed by another queen. Im steaming of course, cause that big of a pot is so crucial at this point, but i dont let it get to me. 2 hands later im in the big blind with KQs and the button raises. I put him on tryin to take the blinds so i go all in, and he calls with pocket 10s. The flop comes, and unbelievable my king hits. Im startin to celebrate, as this pot is so big that i would now have over 28 dimes, and could easily sit on my stack and earn at least 200 bucks. But just when the river comes out i say to myself, no way im gonna lose to another 5%, when i just lost to one 2 hands ago. I was of course wrong, and his 10 hit, therefore eliminating me from the tourney right before the bubble. Im so pissed right now, that i couldnt think of anything to do to vent my anger. Im not usally one to question this site and its miracle bad beats, but this is ridiculous. Im just steaming real bad right now, and ill probably get over it tomorrow, but right now i cant help feeling like ive just been completely screwed.

I lost 7 all ins in a row 2 days ago in the space of about 2 hours. Two were coin flips and the rest were solidly in my favor when the chips went in. I calculated the odds of losing all seven in a row at about 5000 to 1. It happens. And it's not the first time I've had bad streaks like that. You just have to learn to accept it. I've also had good streaks when all my hands held up and I managed to suck out on a couple of people. In those instances I usually end up making a good amount of money, more than making up for the bad beats. Just accept it and move on. The luck will turn your way later on.
