Getting Lucky
Not really a moan as I know it's variance but I have had a spate of not 'getting lucky' for the whole hand.
For example 3 times in the last few days when I have gone in way behind (happens to us all in Tourneys now and again) with underpair against overpair I have managed to flop a set..... only then to be outdrawn by my opponent then hitting their set on the turn or river.
My all time worst however was pocket 3s on a flop of 3 3 10.
Turn was a 10
River was the final 10
I made a reluctant call on the river (a better player would have folded) just to confirm that my opponent had .....K 10.
Ho Hum...... onwards and upwards.
