Re: How to deal with repeated bad beats(long)
During Susie Issacs' long and somewhat tedious writing career, she did come up with one gem:
"To win a big poker tournament, you need to get lucky at least five times."
Its not an exact quote, but that was the gist of it. The person who wins or even places where you have a hundred or more players has to suck-out on someone. And the bigger the field, the more often you're going to have to get lucky in order to do well.
Some cynicas have noticed that Mr. Philip Helmuth doesn't seem to have grasped this concept, despite a tournament career as long and considerably more illustrious than Ms. Issacs.
