i really dont get how i can run so bad in tourneys, and i think alot of you dont understand how bad i run.
part of me thinks maybe im just a really really bad poker player, but then when i look over the hands i play even tho i still make alot of mistakes i wouldnt say im below average. avarage at best but not below

its like no matter how hard i try and try to improve, when i think im doin well i get the slammed back down again,

    This is how I see the hands.
    1st hand-pre flop, v loose call pre but on the flop,Huni has given themselves two ways to win the pot, you folding or hitting,so post flop play isn't that bad,just unlucky for you.
    2nd hand-good shove but with the min raise and call before you,with less than 10bb's pomfrittes feels priced in and the rest more so.Win the hand and you get a nice 4x up.
    3rd hand-Once Snow bird has called the first all in, they feel priced in to your 8bb shove,especially as it's a BH. Standard call.
    4th hand-10bb's and a small PP and an unopend pot in the BB,should be shove and you take it down. As played once they reraise you they are never folding to your 9 bb shove with a flush draw.
    5th hand-Once again, you've got a PP with less than 10bb's,either fold or shove.As played, once there's been an All-in and call before you should fold,as you're never better than a coin flip as it's likely to be four over cards(think that actually makes you worse than a coin flip) and if it's an overpair you're in a world of hurt.(others might say that once you've limp called you have to call the All-in)
    So in summary,a bit of luck in a couple of hands done for you, in others your play has given people options and if played a bit better, you might not have ended up in such marginal spots.

    the fact is m8 that no matter what i do people hit there cards to beat me on the otherside of the coin is i dont hit cards when im drawing to a hand. this thread is not about how iv played hands its the fact that every and i do mean EVERY time im allin and in front i lose. its part of life for me, sure they have outs or in the 1 hand with 66 i was behind but had like 10 outs what my point is that even on a coin flip in the long run i should win 50% (im talking like over thousands of hands) i dont get that. would you prefere me to be goin all in with say T4?? i didt relise that when the best hand you have had all tourny is 55 and your short stacked that i should fold.

    That last hand emphasises my point exactly. Your play has let them hit. Pre flop with 14 bbs is an excellent spot with 3 limpers to shove and take down a pot of nearly 700 chips. As played,once you've bet the flop with 25%of your  stack, you have to shove the turn. You gave him a free card and then called the All-in. If you're prepared to call the All-in,why not do the All-in on the turn yourself and put the decision on them.
     You say 'i didt relise that when the best hand you have had all tourny is 55 and your short stacked that i should fold.'What I said is that you should've shoved pre flop,not limp calling, as you have less than 10bb's. Yes,sometimes people are still gonna call,but if you keep getting them to call on draws/with a worse hand you'll be a winner in the long run. In that last hand, he's gonna find it a lot harder to effectively call for his tourney on a draw if you shove the turn. Stop blaming luck and saying they always hit and look at why they hit. In this instance,it's because you gave them a free card and secondly,pre flop, they got in for free as they were the BB, they are not calling if you've jammed it in.

    when you get this much Cr AP in a tourney what chance have you got?
    what makes it worse is watching all the other players getting/catching cards to take bountys and chips all day long..

    Heads up, flatting pre is not a bad option. But on the flop your bet of 200 is giving odds of 11/1 so if he's got a gut shot, he's actually got the odds to call.With an up and down straight draw he can easily call.He decides to bet his draw and takes your donk lead as weak, so he semi bluff shoves and you get your money in ahead.Just get unlucky that he outdraws you.If you bet 1/2 to 3/4 pot, he then knows a shoves is always gonna get called and he might lay it down. If he calls you have to shove turn.But by only betting 200 you given him the chance to make a move and hit his draw.So once again your play has allowed him to get to a position to outdraw you.Yes,it's a bit unlucky for him to hit, but he hasn't called and been fishing,he shoved his chips and you called,so he made his own luck.

    You could have also checked to him on the flop with the intention of check raising if he c bets.

    once again you dont seem to understand my point. what odds they have or number of outs they have is not what im talking about. im just stating the fact that i get very unlucky in the tournys i play in, so he had 8 outs so if im right there were 37 cards that would not help him...so 8 outs vs 37 non outs. thing is if we spun the hand round and i had the up down vs 2 pair i wouldnt hit the card i needed. thats the whole point.

    You're trying to blame bad luck on all these hands but in some of the hands,your play has allowed them the option. 10bbs and a pp is always a shove or fold for me, same as Ak and 10bb's. Sometimes in poker you can play a hand perfect and still lose. You make your own luck sometimes but to continually blame bad luck for losing when your play could make a difference to the outcome of the hand is a leak in your game.

    what do you mean?? so you are saying that if i had just shoved with these hands and got called you think the cards would have come different to what they did otherwise?? i still dont get you, if you have 22 vs AK allin pre then the 22 is still ahead no matter which way you look at it.
  • edited June 2011
    Look at the AK hand again.If you had shoved there,the K9 isn't calling and you take down a pot uncontested.If you take a pot down uncontested,you're never going to be out drawn and lose. If he calls with K9 then you've got him dominated and then it's unlucky if he beats you. But as played, he got to see it relatively cheap because of your play and all the money went in with you behind. This what I'm am trying to get across to you, your play has had a direct outcome on the result of the hand,not bad luck. If you get it all in pre with AK vs 22 is as good a spot against a pp as you can get but you need to win races to stay in a tournament.That is the luck element of poker.

    Post the AK hand in the poker clinic and see what others make of your play. I bet All-in pre gets mentioned alot.

    Look at the AK hand again.If you had shoved there,the K9 isn't calling and you take down a pot uncontested.If you take a pot down uncontested,you're never going to be out drawn and lose. If he calls with K9 then you've got him dominated and then it's unlucky if he beats you. But as played, he got to see it relatively cheap because of your play and all the money went in with you behind.

    yes and i could do with some.
    it dosent matter how a hand is played when you go allin you are either ahead or behind now if you go through the hands on here you will see that when i was ahead I LOST, when i was behind with outs I LOST. you still seem to have a hard time grasping that concept.

    and i do post hands in the clinic

    In my world,on the button in an unopened pot I'd be raising with K9.
    In my world ,Id be calling your small raise in position if I'd limped(I never limp on the buttonFTW)
    In my world, I'd be shoving with AK and 10bb's especially with a limper.
