we can all blame the software yes, we can all blame others play and our own play... but when luck is running against you then there is something you can not do... 3 allins against me or by me in 1 game... won 1 and lost 2....

tell me please that this was badly played... someone catching a raggy A on river is badly payed...
that today is 19 loses against 7 wins not a bad return for 26 hands played allin... i think i was behind in maybe 5...... but u can do nothing when they catch rivers.. yes i know this happens..
DOOHHHHH even watched me play earlier today and i played an appauling all-in cos i had to and got very lucky... i was miles behind but up against rubbish aswell.. but most of my loses in the 50-50 shots (you might say) i have been in front and people have caught rivers with overcards....
now i am not saying it is fixed... this is just bad luck... i know over cards do come... but as its a 50-50 shot i would expect to hit more from leading positions.. when i have had the over cards or high pairs and they beaten soo much....
next you will tell me not to get into that position, or i have played them badly... tell me how to play QQ when someone goes all in against you or the hand above... 88 when someone goes all-in against you whilst playing a sit n go....
now, i have just checked the odds for some hands to verify my assumptions,, example the hand above lets say 70-30.... if this is so, then how come i lose more times than win when i am infront... am i the unlucky one that 1 in 3 hands the (if higher cards) always gets the 1 hand against that wins and when i have the over cards the 2 times it will lose....
so ets say i played 26 hands all-in.... and they were even 50-50... i would expect to hit 50 %....
it appears to me i am not hitting 50 % when i am miles in front... now u can say that it is bad play...
i am saying all-ins..... no playing of the hand.....
you can get used to the rivers coming, but when it is affecting your betting because you are looking for the river to come and beat you.. with some players they say you raised too small and others say to were bluffing cos you raised to high...
now i have played against DOHHHHHHH on cash tables and he would probably know how i play even in that short ammount of time... and he would probably tell you that i play ..............

no
variance cannot be measured over 26 hands
i've had over a month of 'run bad' now, i'm not complaining, at the start of the year i was runnin hotter than d sun
young gun, i think u should check soe of my posts again, i am not saying it is the site.
and i do not play my good hand badly... just unlucky to stupid calls... as you said in the post on the KK hand, u said i didnt raise when infact i put in an 8 times raise, he re-raised me and then i pushed on flop.. only an idiot would call that...
Read this thread with interest.....fairly new to the game and yep, in the early days I probably would have called that and mebbe got lucky. In fact I can remember several occasions when in a wild act of desperation at how bad my luck seemed to be running I called some real howlers and won! but they were few and far between. That taught me something. If I can do that, the others can too. A lot of players seem to like to call anything and irritatingly they sometimes win on a hand that you would have folded. Then you also have to consider the fact that a pair of 10's only has 2 outs to better itself to trips or quads unless you then have the site fixed to river yourself a flush with one of your tens and really make the other guy mad enuf to start a thread along the lines of .........'this site is fixed'.....and also take into account that Q9 S has a lot more outs to beat a pair, surely double the chances of trips or quads and only needs 3 out of the 5 board cards to flush......and although it does seem like a sledgehammer to crack a nut fixing him a full house like that but lets face it,,....he only needed one Queen to whup your behind! If I were playing that hand, in the position you were in I wouldnt have gone all in with 3 players behind me on a pair of 10's. Mebbe on Aces, and as you have found, even thats a dangerous game cos 2 pair of anything always beats one pair of aces....
I really don't believe the site's fixed, mebbe we just need to fix our game?
I'm going now before I speak any more amateur drivel......lol

If that's your application to join Team51 - you failed miserably. )
Its a pretty wet board, I hate a flat, but also hate the pot commit min raise.
I dont really want serious action here, am just as happy if he folds flop to a shove as your getting called by a pretty wide drawy range or jammed on by equal range.
If I can take this pot w/out going to showdown I'm a happy bunny.

and i do not play my good hand badly... just unlucky to stupid calls... as you said in the post on the KK hand, u said i didnt raise when infact i put in an 8 times raise, he re-raised me and then i pushed on flop.. only an idiot would call that...
