Screen Shots – Bad Beats – Suckouts – Donktastic

The following screen shots depict my ability to run bad on 02/08/2010
I was short so i limped, intending to shove the flop no matter what, i got a great flop so i thought. 22 called my flop shove.
Of course i flop trips and check the flop. He caught up. FML.
Here i have less than 10 BB’s so it’s folded to me, i shove, 99 calls and the rest is Street3 history. FML. Out 5 from the money.
IDK what to say about this shit other than yes, that donkey called my preflop raise.
We were in the money, i shove short and chip leader calls. OBV what happens.
After a quick nap from 2:30 am to about 8:30, i wanted to see if the bad beats took a break…..see for yourself!
He shoved short, i called. Of course he hit, no worries, i still had lots of chips left!!!……..Well, until two hands later when this shit happened:
AFter the flop, i shoved. He called…he was ahead, then he wasn’t!!!
Then he was again
Of course he called the preflop raise and hell yeah he check raised all in on the flop. NOTE: I tried this same manuever in a latter SNG only to not hit. WTF….oh well, stay tuned for more!!!
Undeniable proof that A4o is in fact the fucking NUTS! Call raises with them, definately see the turn and river!!
And like a sucker i thought you dump A4o to a raise….who knew….certaintly this cannot happen twice in 20 minutes….can it???
Nevermind that i shove the flop….nevermind that he called….all that matters is FTP hates me.
Now proof that what works for others, does not work for me. Take Case 1, below:
After a 3bet, 4bet, 5bet shove, call, all the chips go in preflop. Of course i have him dominated! I’m 70% fav to win the hand….but the fucking 3 outer hits and sends me to another table…….
Hey here is another scenerio, but this time, i am the obv dog preflop! Same shit as before right? I’ll hit the Ace on the flop! Nope. On the turn? Hell no! On the river? Fuck no. I tell ya, it’s beyond funny now, how bad i can run!
