Vanished into vortex
Well, after winning a nice size (for me at least) game last week I decided that maybe the Sit N Go was my kind of game afterall and I was gonna play a bunch of them yesterday.

Horror followed :scared

The following are the hands I busted out on and the odds at the time the chips went into the pot and the cards were turned over. Yes I was a dog/coin flip on a couple hands to start with, but agian when the chips got shoved in the middle is what I am talking about here:

JJ/KQ after a flop of JK7 I am 95/5 to win

AA/TT Preflop I am 80/20 to win

AA/QQ Preflop I am 80/20 to win

AQ VS KT Preflop I am 62/38 to win

KQ/AK with a flop of Q73 I am 82/18 to win

AA/AQ Preflop I am 83/17 to win

I lost and busted out 4 of those hands, the other two left me short stacked to the point I may as well have been busted.

Can any of the math guys tell me the odds of losing all of those hands in a row like that?

That is exactly why I quit playing at Pokerstars. those kinds of hands happen all the time. Pokerroom is the same way. I don't know why, but these sites favor bad players.

Party Poker is the same.............Made a withdrawal 2 weeks ago, and it been one bad beat after another.

Clinical depression sufferers should not be playing Poker online.

That's a 100% mathematical certainty.
