Dont ya just hate it when a few good hands leads you to destruction.....mayb e you could have called all in on the first hand and maybe won....depends on what you knew about your opponent and how lucky you were feeling.

I don't care who this offends, i want all donks to be shot. i just had KK three callers before me so i shove one donkey call edward on this site somewhere calls i knew he would he'd been a donkey all game and a stupid russian called. over we go, i'm against K4 and 10 6 what do you know 10 6 hits trips, it's an outrage how does he call preflop7000 chips with 10 6? I hate donkeys especially the russians, just bingo players f%*k em!!! I agree maybe destined to lose.

lol i guess you had a bad run .. not intended to offend but it's funny, at least when it happens to others. When it happens to me (unless its cash) i get a bit mad at the first hand or 2 .. after that its just "ye.. nice keep it coming) .. part of the game just enjoy it!

think i played the first hand well of hit trips and got someone else to put there chips in. pretty sure they hit a flush with the runner runner hearts but still there was an up down staight draw aswell. for such a bit bet in such a dangeous spot then someone knew they had me and couldnt justify calling.
had a bad feeling on the flop on the second after the previous hand when 3 clubs came on the flop i even typed ffs in chat seen it coming. but no moe clubs came an since i was up against a smaller stack had to play it the way i did.
and the last hand is just your classic aces cracked. just lost four thousand in two hands so by shoving people gonna call me thinking im going for the old tilting donk bet mabee shoving an ace or somthing (given my run of cards). got my caller and he hits a full house.

i think somtimes your just destined to lose
I am 100 % agree !!!!! That's very bad FACT !!! more variance make us more confuse : After had crap card for half an hour or more, we got : 1. Get best hand like AA/KK/QQ. Raise 3x BB . Someone shove, we call and lost ! Go all in, someone call and we lost. 2. Suddenly we got many good card/ good feeling and win many time, finally win prize,lol. 3. Suddenly we got many good card/ good feeling and win many time, but got bad beat at bubble and win nothing after play 3 hours r more...
poker is very complicated....table dynamics....i think...it happens to me also....dealt with dead cards for an hour...no cards that can play then after getting a good hand only to beaten....sometimes its better to shove with trash if your getting very lucky......

You did well in the first hand folding at that time, perhaps the best way to play it would be to insta all-in at the flop. Ok, you could have lost it all at that point, but you were playing against someone less chips than you, if you don’t risk at some point, when will you going to do it? And on the second hand, being top pai rand checking… you are doing too much slowplay, you can’t keep that calling station scheme of yours, go above your opponents, show them they have to pay to win you or, at least to see your cards. The last one, well, this time you did what you had to do, and maybe KK couln’d even believe you were better than him because of what happened on the previous hands, maybe he thought you were already on tilt, and the table just gave your opponent what he needed. Lesson to take from here: you have to be more aggressive, don’t wait for the cards to help, it’s you who have to turn your cards into a winning hand!

It was really unlucky situation. And i agree with the fact that sometimes no matter what, you cant win a tournament. Ive watched plenty of times the hands i had folded and would have called if there wasnt any big raises or all ins,with rabbit cam, losing one after another, so yea sometimes its your destiny. Better luck next time
