Not standard, but it's possible and it does happen. When you say "got my money in ahead" do you mean domination or slight favorite like QQ v AK or AK v QJ? Obviously if you have villain crushed 8 times and lose all 8 that is much less likely than the other two cases. But either way it is just variance like CaperGraver stated.

If you have to ask this question it's likely you probably weren't as ahead as you thought.

Edit: also 8x in your first session? How long were you playing for?

So you know it's not standard, therefore this is just a thread to cry about getting the pointy end of variance. So take it to BBV, that is the correct forum for threads which only have the purpose of complaining.

No-one here cares about your variance because we all experience it constantly. But the friendly posters in BBV will give you all the sympathy you deserve.

Why not disguise your lame ranting bad beats post?

If you "got your money in good 8 times" in a night and got sucked out on 8 times, but only lost $200, you should feel good and lucky. You were in an insanely soft game, ran absolutely awful and didn't lose 5-8 buyins.
