Dominated this tourney throughout... Then 3 hands on the final table, got my chips in as a 82%, 74% & 68% favourite and lost every one... not even a split, and I'm out in 6th....

107,50 is not bad at all with 5,50 buy in... I know its bummer to lose 3 all ins, in which you are all favorite, but that happend... in your case taming of that is worse... Anyway good luck on your next tournament, and I hope you will win some money

that happend to me a lot, but dont think about it... If you think about it, that will put you on tilt... just forget it and just think that 107$ won from 1 tournament is good

I understand your frustration! But as have been said before, poker is a frustrating game most of the time. You just have to keep on going and just, as you said yourself, use these times as motivation for the next tourney!
Oh boy, this was Omaha H/L so don't be that surprised about it. There isn't any other kind of poker (at least 4 me) where the tables could be turned on you so fast by the time you managed to choose your next step - so I don't know how consistent your success level in this but keep your cool no matter what 'cuz that will be an essential tool for the future if you wanna crack Hi/Lo games...

That is unlucky but at least you are getting into the positions and having the stack to be able to lose 3 all ins on a final table,on most days you will win at least one of those hands and go on further in the game.No one here is going to be surprised when you win a big tournament.

Well this is what we called s**t luck and it could not happen at the worst moment right? i would prefer for it to happen at the start of the tournament then i can go on and do something else rather than lose at the bubble or when i am close to the money but still you got 6th and you could have won if you had just a little bit of luck, sad for you mate, anyway keep playing and the luck will turn and you will one day do the same thing!

I also play 2-7 in the freeroll i like the single draw and dont like the triple one but never tried them in real money pretty sur its a lot different than free.
I also like very much the badugi game i find it very interesting game but omaha just not able to play this game specially the H/L.
To me Omaha is a very difficult game and i like very much the good players of this game.

That was a very good result. You manage to finish high with a good payout, even after the rebuy and add on. And Omaha hilo some times mostly in the beginning it can be a complete lotto game. So thats one more + there. Continue with that pace. You are doing really good

Omaha has very wide dispersion, just should make +EV decisions, and even with that you can have a huge downstreak, really should have balls of titanium to play this Roulette but i think 20BI it is a good prize
