Some venting on 44

I am in the middle of a huge losing streak, so if this sounds like whinning, it is. I have placed OTM in 16 of my last 20 tourneys. I have taken 4th about 10 out of those 16 times. Out of those 10 4ths, I have lost to and with 44 8 times(7 were against 44)! Does anyone have a similiar streak or a particular hand that keeps f*cking them? It would be one thing to take 4th, but consistently losing to 44 on the bubble is frustrating the crap out of me.
Just some thoughts/vents

Everyone is entitled to their rare vent post, just dont make a habit of it or try to disguise it like some people do.

If you are losing with 44 a lot then perhaps you should be mucking it more often. Im sure this is hard to hear because of the times where you lost to 44 so many times.

Tighten up, take a small break, stay away from small pairs unless you can limp in and get a set. Beware of pushing with them on the bubble unless you have to. Never call with them.

And dont make a habit of vent/bad beat posts or people get cranky.
