Do I suck at poker?
Somewhere around 33 straigt non money finishes some bad beat etc. avg. field size probably 400 - 500. Before that had a first and a third in pretty short time. I would guess around 45 - 50 career tourneys. Is possible is just variance dont know

Re: Do I suck at poker?
The more i think i about it had they all been at the same buy in level I would probably actually be positive for the 50 tourneys. A couple were tv events but not the ones i did well in unfortunately. Im trying to think about the mistakes ive made and how to play better. I dont think im completely hopeless. I got slightly reckless in my play from a bit of early success i think. Got to get back to bit more conservative style.

Re: Do I suck at poker?
One example of mental lapse and slight unluckiesness from WSOP main event. Had 40K after day 1 maintained my stack at a tight table with a blind steal or two a round. Had recently limped a few times with pocket pairs picked up KK. Limped with it. Flop was 8 5 3. I bet get checkraised by tight small blind. next card is 5. Fold to small bet from small blind. should have probably raised preflop because i did want to play a big pot post flop with an overpair anyway. down to 30K rebuild my stack to 40K. blinds 400 - 800 25 ante. Make following slightly donkeyish play. Button raises I have AK suited reraise him all in he has about 25K. He calls quickly with 77. lose that. Next hand have KQ. Very aggressive button raises. I reraise all in. He thinks for a long time calls with A3. Lose that one and go from avg stack to out in 2 hands.

Re: Do I suck at poker?
you can get better responses in the multi-table tournaments forum, but my answer would be yes.

Re: Do I suck at poker?
How can we know by looking at a sample size of 50 MTTs???? Post some hands( not stats) on the MTT forum and theyll help you out.

Re: Do I suck at poker?
Those are not results I would be happy with, but if you really want to get better, there are many avenues for improvement. Try moving down buyin levels and/or study the MTT forum or some books.
