todays pacific 30+3 I am dealt aces have 1200 in utg+1 blinds are 10/20
I raise it to 50 two callers.
Flops comes A65rainbow I check guys to my left goes all in for 700T, caller , I go all in, call. So 3 all in. turn 4 river 2
Guy has 63o for his straight other guy has AK . I am crippled.

Wtf I am so sick and tired of this crap happening to me. The past two weeks I ve had bad beat over bad beat. Boat gets beat by bigger boat. Flush by bigger flush. set by bigger set. It is just constant. What do you guys do when you keep getting these bad beats over and over? Sorry for the ranting but I am so sick of this. It happens every freaking day at least 3 times a day.

Sorry I am just p'od. Ive been rivered enough to last me a lifetime the last two weeks. Sorry I posted but i needed to vent. It seems like the past two weeks I can't do anything to keep people from chasing and hitting their draws. Sorry again.

At least you still have your health.

and 2 weeks is nothing, try 8 months and get back to me.

Three things:

1) Raise more preflop
2) Raise more preflop
3) Raise more preflop

Oh yeah, one more:
4) Take your bad beat story to pscrew.com's 'Bad Beat Forum' because no one wants to hear them here.

Have a nice day.

I deserve the harshness. Sorry for posting a bad beat story I have learned my lesson. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img] I should know better. Where do I hand in my 2+2 badge? [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] Oh lethal Ive only been playing for 3months and never had a losing week till last week this week im about even so thats y I am so p'od. Ill check back in 8 months lol.

And I actually was serious about taking the bad beat story to pscrew.com's forum. They really have a Bad Beat Forum, and no one flames them for the bad beat story. Really, if you want to vent, that's a great (and safe

place to do it.

And really, I do think you should've raised more pre-flop.

Take care man.

Ty yoadrans but being early in the tourney about 3rd hand or so I didn't want to raise so much that I would scare away the fish. The guy who called was to my immediate left utg+2 so I think he wouldve called for 70-80. I think I played it right and got unlucky. Now that I am calm I can see that. Thanks anyway for the advice. I will take it to pscrew next time.

I don't agree with this. Two days ago I was playing a $30 sng on Pokerstars. Very first hand with 10/20 blinds I had AA in late position. MP player limps for 20 and I made it 60. The SB raised to 180, MP player called, I raised to 360, SB called and MP player called.

The flop came KJ3 rainbow. SB checked, MP player bets all-in for 1140, I called and the SB called. SB had AK, MP player had QT. QT hit the 9 on the turn and I'm history on the first hand.

I then start second guessing myself that a) my first raise to 60 was too small and b) my second raise to 360 was too small that I in fact should have gone all-in. Then after thinking about it for a few minutes, i said bullshiit, i played it perfect. I got exactly what I wanted, action for my aces, a chance to win a big pot and all the money in the middle with best hand.

So, I guess what I'm saying is that I don't agree with raising so much with your premium hands that you get no action. But of course, you're going to get sucked out on occasionally and sometimes when you're running bad the occasionally's are all bunched together.
