    Your stats on sky aren't so bad......

    What were the tournys u won? how much did you win?

    How many people are in the tournys u usually play?

    How hard do u work at your game? do you read books/forums etc? To try and improve? or do you use trial and error?

    Or do you already think ur the best, and don't need to improve?

    EVery time you play a hand of poker there is a greater than zero chance of you getting a beat.

    the more you play the more beats you could get. 

    DONT PLAY IF YOU DONT WANT BEATS!

    listen pal my point is.. if i go into a hand 80% fav.. i should win more then 5%. and i dont im only writing
    cause its nearly unreal. if you seen the beats i keep gettin you'd understand.. i really dont mind beats
    but to constantly keep coming out the worst when im miles ahead its frustrating. just wondering is there any one going through it. and will it change.

    Yeah they did Jock sadly I can't remember the guys real name (sorry! it was the LUFC fan though if memory serves correct). He had A-4 vs A-K, got it all-in on flop of A-A-4, then turn or river came K. Ouch very harsh.

    I have'nt been playing as long as you,but my fortunes are similar to yours, I just regard myself as an unlucky player, and I accept that totally. The thing with me is that I only play for fun in low MTTS, and I expect to lose,which is just as well lol, but it does'nt stress me out. I can afford to play and lose, which I suppose is lucky really.     Kind regards
