Played the 7pm $35 today at Greektown. Bought in for the dealer appreciation $5, plus a $10 bounty

Entrants:30
Starting Stacks: 10,000
Levels: 15 Mins
Blinds: 100/100

I got off to an excellent start, just like last tournament. A few hands in, I picked up AK. Some chick opened for 800, and 3 callers saw the flop of 3A3. She did a continuation bet of 1200, I call and the rest fold. Turn came and we both checked. She checked to me on the river, I bet out about 700, she called and turned over QQ.

This was a major pot, and I won a few other decent sized pots to get a very nice stack, I believe I was chip leader for a while. Had well over 100 bb's, about 2.5X the average stack in the room

Then, disaster came again. Just like before, I got sucked out on in a major way. Blinds 200/400. I'm dealt J9 out of position, called a rasise for about 1k. Heads up to the flop, we see 8106. I check and the guy moves all-in for almost 8k. I had to call with the mother of all draws, when I do he tables J7. Unbelevable, yet another god-awful, mind-boggling all-in from some random donk that I have to deal with. He sees that he's dominated and starts getting up, turn comes a 4, river comes 9. Just wow. Another 2-outer on the river, what kind of bad luck is this? I guess that's what it will take to bust me, because I don't usually play bad

Had a shorter stack but nothing to bad, waited for my double up hand and picked up two 9's. Shoved pre-flop and got call by the bad-beat guy with Qs. The queens held and I busted


How long is this bad luck going to continue?

No help unless I know what hands you're referring to. Styles are all different, there is no right or wrong one. It's what works for the individual

Since you don't know jack sh17, do me a favor and stay off my thread. You're useless, no help whatsoever. Village troll I suppose
