  1. First time ive seen something somewhat "strange"
    havent played this guy before , he folds 8 hands in a row before open shoving this. Ive never seen anyone folding 8 hands in a row in a HU hyper turbo before then open shove this

    Seat 2: KING_CLUB8 (big blind) showed [Kd Ks] and lost with two pair, Aces and Kings

    just a weird play to see, cant imagine anyone folding 8 hands in a row then open shove 83 to outdraw KK . I still did end up winning the match but dammm. Just a bit of shady stuff thats been going on for the past month. Ive been getting taken to the beaters on the regular this month. Unreal runner runners/2, 3outers.
    I obviously know theres bad beats and harsh outdraws in poker, but its just getting worst and worst. I feel like im a flip when im in with an over pair vs an underpair.
    For accomplished players reading this... (i assume they wont be any in BB's section) any advice for times like this? More volume, less volume, increased aggression, decreased aggression. Im open to suggestions and def need to work through the downswing

  5. Your second one makes me kind of sad
  6. I'd say if probability of losing is any value greater than zero then over a long period of time or large hand history sample, it could happen. Get your chips in with +EV (at times adjusting for bubble factor) then there should not be any further discussions. Anything could happen in poker...this is why we love this game
  7. happens way too often to me, but i guess i can live with a shitty RNG and still try to improve
