Does anyone here play tournaments at pokerroom?
I have played over 1200 tournaments there and I have
thousands of logged hands. I started logging all-in hands
and any have that is a so called coin flip.
I have won several tournaments there and qualifying
tickets and I am up at the site. But, (big BUT) I have
a big losing record in the coin flips and an even bigger
loss record in the all-in confrontations where I start
with a huge advantage. I only win about 50% of the hands
where I get all in with a guy and have about a 70% or
more advantage.
The following is an example of what I go thru there on a
daily basis.

Seat 1: BROWNTROUT12 ($3,035 in chips)
Seat 2: ..hank ($3,995 in chips)
Seat 3: UpUrAnte ($7,051 in chips)
Seat 5: Rebell1 ($4,460 in chips)
Seat 6: kdanielsen ($4,715 in chips)
Seat 7: MoP_86 ($2,015 in chips)
Seat 8: Marley [KS,AS] ($2,010 in chips)
Seat 9: xrobert1 ($2,905 in chips)
Seat 10: corus73 ($1,895 in chips)
ANTES/BLINDS
..hank posts blind ($100), UpUrAnte posts blind ($200).

PRE-FLOP
Rebell1 folds, kdanielsen bets $400, MoP_86 folds, Marley bets $2,010 and is all-in, xrobert1 folds, corus73 folds, BROWNTROUT12 folds, ..hank folds, UpUrAnte folds, kdanielsen calls $1,610.

FLOP [board cards JS,QH,10S ]


TURN [board cards JS,QH,10S,QC ]


RIVER [board cards JS,QH,10S,QC,JD ]


SHOWDOWN
Marley shows [ KS,AS ]
kdanielsen shows [ QS,AC ]
kdanielsen wins $4,320.
SUMMARY
Dealer: BROWNTROUT12
Pot: $4,320
BROWNTROUT12, loses $0
..hank, loses $100
UpUrAnte, loses $200
Rebell1, loses $0
kdanielsen, bets $2,010, collects $4,320, net $2,310
MoP_86, loses $0
Marley, loses $2,010
xrobert1, loses $0
corus73, loses $0

So I start at 75% to win preflop and move to 93% to win
after with a straight and the nut flush draw.
Then he goes runner runner full house.
I win about 50% of these confrontations overall but
lose about 75% of them if I am all-in and will be
knocked out of the tournament if I lose.

Anyone else have experiences like this?

Thanks

Nope. No one here has ever been through any bad luck streaks. Try the cardplayer.com forums.

Small sample size.
I've played on PokerRoom a whole lot...never had any issues.

[marley]

I think the sample is large enough.
I have played over 1200 tournaments there.
By my estimates, I have seen at least 180,000 hands
in those tours.

I play on pokerroom, and yeah, I have days when it seems like I can't win no matter how good my cards and how bad the other guy's cards. But I also have good days and the occasional day where it seems like I can't lose. If AA was always a guaranteed winner against 72, we wouldn't get those 5 cards in the middle.

Well, I win 70% of my coinflips there and 50% of the time when I am a 3/7 dog, so that explains it
