just painful
« on: June 24, 2009, 02:59:07 PM »
I recently added Pokerworld and started off strong.  A few nights ago however i literally lost 4 big tourneys in a row with pocket A's.  How painful it was and even more painful is the sight of my bankroll!!  The buy-ins were all $20 and above so i was hoping for the donkeys to stay away from the suckout hands but there they were catching trips and straights with hands like A 10 and K Q

Hey 'whale'.  That's really bad luck, four tourneys in a row lost because of pocket Aces, wow.  I'm curious to find out how you played each pair.  If you don't mind, let us know.  It would make, for us, a good learning tool to discuss.  Never know, we may all learn something from this.   Hoping to hear from you, thanks.

i'm cheap so i woulda played smaller tournys.  isn't it advisable to only spend a certain percentage of your bankroll on a buyin?  i also woulda ceased after the 2-3rd loss and chalked it up to "not my day"  and waited until tomorrow or next week.

LIVE GAME CASINO STAKE 1/3 NL HOLDEM

my chip about $350

other player chips around $400

my hand was pocket QQ

his hand pocket AA

so i raise it 20, the other player re-raise to 60, so i called

the flop come 3-Q-3

i bet $100, the other player raise all in, so i call i have a full house Queens up so

the turn comes 3 so im still i ahead

so out comes the river 3 also

so he took down the damn pot
so the board was 3-Q-3-3-3

he caught 3-3-3-3-A
and me 3-3-3-3-Q

and plus it suck because it was not a Jackpot hand either both hold cards have to play what a river rat man
