    +1 to this, ran terrible v them too. gotta love it when u run bad n make profit.

    Hand three is my KJ against his A6. He has 3-bet pre-flop and i have called from the BB.
     Flop has come 6-10-K.
     Have check-raised AI on the flop when ive hit my king and he has called me with bottom pair A kicker. Q on turn J on river. He has hit runner-runner straight :/

    That one was in the last nights mini-BH and i was runnning real good and already pretty deep. That hand crippled me.

    For someone to call an all in after u shoved utg with t6 is pretty horrendous but shoving with kj off isn't something I would do normally either,u seem to be going all in with not great hole cards,just my opinion 
  • edited May 2012
    I appreciate the opinion, and in the examples above i would concur they are not exactly monsters, my point is that im ahead massive every time and people keep hitting runner-runners on me :/
  • edited May 2012
    The question you should be asking yourself is ?

    Why do i keep getting short stacked in the 1st place :)

    All 3 hands are fairly standard.

    Nice name tho 'Jeronimo'

    I know what u mean mate once it's done u were unlucky and I'm not slagging off ur playing style but my advice for a hand like kj off would be more like a 3x bet,especially utg,see who calls or raises then take it from there because you don't know how the table stands from that position,it's a strong place to bet high but not shove with that hand,u could be up against some very strong hands like AA,Ak,aq ,kk ect and u went all in exposingyourself to these types of hands,obliviously if short stacked then it's a sound enough decision though,say if ur 6x bb but if you're aggressive then fair play mate,must work for u :)

    Would say i need to change my playing style drastically, have gone bust in 24 hours and had to deposit into my account. Does sky reward this with better luck? Or even just winning when im ahead? No. See below.
