  1. #1 Ok, this hand is more of a bad beat post but I'll post it anyway. We were 10 off the bubble and the table was super tight so I was raising almost every other hand.

    #3 My call from the small blind was weak but i wasn't intending on playing the cards here. Limper is a weak player so i was gonna put move on him. Should i have lead the flop or check raise? I think my turn raise was good but he made a bad call and sucked out.

    All in all tonight was horrid, 0-11 on coin flips :/

    Thanks for any feed back.
  2. how did you manage to coin flip 11 times in the $3 rebuy and not even make the money?

  3. How you managed to get it all in good on hand #1 and 3 is beyond me. Hand #2 looks normal with all that free juice out there.
  4. Hand one was tough but i was at a very weak table. I was raising almost every other hand and picking up the blinds with no problem. When this hand occured we were 1 person off the bubble and i knew he needed a monster to call me but apparently a draw is good enough. He could easily have been on second or bottom pair with how aggro i had been. Hand three isnt obvious to you? min bet flop, double min bet the turn, its just so weak its sick. I really put him on absolutely nothing which i was right and he got lucky.

    i didnt lose 11 coinflips in one tourny, i played about 15 tournys last night. 11 might be a slight exaggerated but it prob was like 6 or 7.
