Nobody cares about bad beat stories. I get it. But between last night and tonight, I am seriously wondering if the universe hates me. Tonight I got 2-outted 5 straight times after all the money goes in. Last night the same thing happened 3 times. I understand LOL variance, but this is just insane. FML.

Ouch.

Even if you had it all-in good on the flop every time with two cards remaining five times in a row, the chance of being 2-outed five straight times is well over one in two-hundred-thousand.

...and that's assuming the very unlikely pre-condition that five consecutive times when you went all in, your opponents happened to have exactly two outs.

Sure you're remembering it right? Not trying to rub in your bad luck or anything. Everything's possible.

Dat variance. They say poker takes a lifetime learning how to play well. How does one learn to avoid getting 2 outed every time money goes all in?

We only remember the bad beats, not our own suckouts.

I think I know what you mean. I sometimes accidentally the whole thing after all the money goes in. Last night the same thing happened 3 times. I understand LOL variance, but this is just insane. FMLeshlight
