Well I believe I've had the losing streak myself although I didn't get K's beat down I've had everything else beat down, but your right about the laughing. If I don't laugh I might do exactly what youare thinking and that is break my PC. I don't generally play the freerolls, but I am tonight just to try to make up some loses.

Over 50K hand sample it almost evens things out, AA wins aprox 80% of the time and so on (HEM is a proof of that for those who still don't believe the numbers and complain about bad beats)...but still a 2K hand downswing is pretty gruesome.. I really dont consider myself to be lucky..just the oppositem but even so I don't give up..and remember this guys: the less bad beats you give means that you are proportionally a better player because you entered with the best hand... so take pride in that

it was the perfect time for me to chose this thread. I just fold KK in a final table of an $100 GTD tourney. Blinds 300 600, first to talk with KK, i decided to go with 1800 (wrong decision, i know now). Only the chipleader went to see the flop with me, and we saw 10,J,A. I took a while before cheking (didnt wanted to compromise the game, but just did) and, of corse, he made a nice bet to see me folding. I am still in the game, but it wont take too long before i go away, i think. Still 8 in the table, 4 paid places and im 7th...

yeah..not gonna say anything but NEVER fold KK..well..almost never lol. You didn't say what was your stack but nonetheless you should've gone allin there ..standard play unless you had over 15bb...and even then.. Often when you openshove you represent a lighter hand then when raising. And another thing..it isn't enough to play according to your stack, you also have to take into account the other players stacks because those are the effective stacks.. You should look into that.

Actually three times in a row? Back to Back!? That would be absolutely awful. One thing I can say for sure is: Better you than me. Just kidding, hope your luck changes, and hope you took a tilt break as that would be rage inducing.

You don’t tell us how these hands were played, but this can mean you are not playing KK correctly. Maybe you are doing slowplay with KK and then, when you see an Ace at the table, you don’t mind about it and never discard your hand. Winning Texas Hold’em is having the best combination of five cards out of seven, gathering your two in the hand with the five at the table. So, anyone who has only one A at the hand but that combines it with another A at the table will be winning your KK hand. I don’t want to seem ridiculous with this schoolyard explanation, but you need to have this in mind when playing. Be more aggressive. If you do a good bet with that KK hand, those A7, A3 and A9 will only call you if they are dumb. You win less for not having no one going against you, but at least you win.

lol what are u guys even arguing about.. in all 3 cases hero has ~70% equity. You think losing 3 of those in a row is unlikely? It happens to me pretty much every hour... and so does it for every grinder..period. If my maths doesnt completely fail right now,the OPs scenario will happen one in 10 times these hands occur...which is nothing in poker. It really is nothing,no need to argue about that either
