    Wow the amount of times i see queens beat by two pair on this site, seriously happened 3 times to me yesterday and Don and yourself have posted threads with exactly the same situation! There cursed i tell ya!

    The last hand is horrific from your point of view. 

    Why you are taking a stand with jack 7 I don't know?

    Every single cash hand you post, you're sat with less than 50 big blinds. Why?

    Why don't you play a level you can afford to buy in for 100xbb. Come join me at 15/30p. 

    Also don't bluff/c bet without a hand against people who wont fold.

    hand 1 is fine.  you just got unlucky.

    hand 2 is fine pre and fine flop.  turn you should check/fold river.  the turn brings all draws and on paird flops if they call then they tend to have something that will not fold.  you are only getting a fold from 22 thru to 77 maybe here by betting turn.  he's never folding a J/8/Q etc.

    hand 3 is pretty terrible.  you shouldn't be raising J7hh when only 30bb deep.  if you are gonna be shortstacking then you should be looking for a very premium holding to get in and double up.  88+ AK/AQ.

    fwiw i think i played you on that tournie a few days ago, and i've played you cash too.  i think you are a far better MTT player than a cash player and should look to stick to that until you've learnt more about cash....if you do wanna be playing cash then stick within your roll.  it is far better to be 3 tabling 10nl full stacked than shortstacking 100nl.

    hand 1 unlucky, likely you could stack them if they hit only J so not much more you can do other then buy in full

    Hand 2, dont like c bet on flop as only a J you could be representing i'd rather check, fold to any bet on this one

    hand 3, dont get involved pre flop with j7 even if suited not worth the raise 4 x and thats never going to be profitable long term, whole hand was just baad sorry to say
