Default It's just laughable

I have been complaining how I always lose on coin flips with the dominate hand in almost every coin flip hand. Well I just knocked out of a game where I had tripp 4's and my opponent had A3 and yes got a wheel on the river...so now I am down to next to nothing chips and have A4 and I am the SB with three limpers, so I go all-in and the BB is the same guy that beat me with A3 on the previous hand that put me into the next to nothing situation...well he has A3 again against my A4...yes the flop has a 3 and he wins...beat me big beat me small...lol, it doesn't make a difference, just beat me.

He had 17 outs when the chips went in, it's not exactly like this was a bad beat.

Please stop feeling sorry for yourself, it's very unbecoming. You lose 99% of the time when you get your chips in as a favorite, the poker hex, odds never even out, yeah we've heard it all. The problem is (as always), you only focus on the losses. When you have a hand hold up or when you suckout it turns into a "in one ear and right out the other" deal, it's immediately forgotten. As soon as that stops happening you will realize that your "99%" number is, in reality, something much more reasonable.

Care for an example? You have recently won a number of $215 Sunday Million satalites and you said that out of three 180-man tournies that you played you placed 2nd, 2nd, and 8th was it? You had a nice little run but as soon as it ended they are forgotten and the complaints start rolling back in. And since in the 180-man turbos it is a realistic improbability that you are going to build your stack up to 6 digits on bluffs and outplaying your opponents with trash cards, apparently you had a nice run of hands holding up (or sucking out... your choice).

In your own words:

So why in the name of God to you continue to post basic, normal, everyday, completely unspectacular beats that happens every day to every poker player?

The beats that you see as being specifically tailored to xCRAPSHOOTx? They happen to every one of us... nearly every day.

We are all part of the same compost heap

You're not your job.

You're not how much money you have in the bank.

You're not the car you drive.

You're not the contents of your wallet.

You're not your fucking khakis.

You're the all-singing, all-dancing crap of the world.
