in last 30 tourneys when im all in when ahead ive only won 6 of these ,this means u only win 20 % of hands when ur ahead, surely this is not right ,the river card is killing people far too many times.

Your sample size of 30 is ridiculous

If you were ahead 30 times which I doubt and say 20 of these were standard flips 52/48 etc and say the other 10 were 60/40 then you would expect 16 wins and 14 losses

You are 6 from 30, come back with stats from your next 3000 and lets see if it evens out

beaneh

must be so farking wonderful to win 6

1)  Your number are confusing.  Are you saying your last 30 exit hands and that you got it in ahead on every single one?  And I take it you won the 6 tournies.  Nope can't make head nor tail of your numbers.

2)  Sample size too small.  I play more tournies than 30 cross sites on a decent Sunday and I can tell you those numbers are nothing, I've ran worse than that without breaking a sweat.

3)  Good luck at the tables.

OK, I'm going to take a deep breath and try to be constructive....

So the only hands ur including in this sample are the 30 times you got it all in?

So we're to assume that during the whole of this time there were no examples of you holding with the best hand and winning pots?

It's a natural fact of the game that when we bust from tournies we often suffer bad beats, we're not generally going to risk our tournaments if we think we're behind????  So to only reference the sample of hands where you get all you chips in and get sucked out is ridiculous.  It also doesn't give any indication of how you played the hands to end up in these situations.

It's an absolute fact that if ur seeing a regular pattern of losses that you need to work on something in your game that needs changing and not blame the poker site you're playing on.

"this means u only win 20 % of hands when ur ahead, surely this is not right ,the river card is killing people far too many times."

Thats not a fact, its an opinion, and a bad one at that.

And why is it people that write "u" instead of "you", and "ur" instead of "you are", always seem to suffer the most bad beats

I thought this was going to be some rafa benitez like rant

Pretty vague OP. 

The one thing you can be sure about is that it will even itself out over a larger sample size. Law of large numbers innit.

The give away is in "expected outcome". If you aint got the nuts beware.

I get more annoyed at making bad decisions than I do about getting bad beats. If you're making the right decisions over time you will get your reward.
