Standard two outer...

[Talking Poker]

It's been a long, long time since I've been on this end of a beat, especially one this bad. 2 outs all in on the turn. Yikes! I had to post this to be fair to all the other beats I've posted opver the past couple of months where I've been on the other side of this.

And yeah, you could make a case for me laying this down on the turn like some people here would have for sure... but I think that's too weak, personally. It's close though. I definitely considered it.

Dude.... you obviously haven't been here very long if you think I am lucky. Actually, I see you have been here for a while, so..... You obviously don't pay much attention.

Don't get me wrong - I'm no bdawg, but I wouldn't exactly consider myself lucky either.

If you look long run, I happen to remember two back to back runs to FTs at the WSOP...can't be all skill . Hope it turns around for you now at the tables.

[Talking Poker]

Absolutely! And don't think I forgot about that, because I didn't. That second one, btw, was the sickest run of cards I have ever seen early in a tourney. 1100 players, and there is no doubt in my mind that I was the chipleader after the first hour. Of course, 11 hours later my stack looked exactly the same, but hey - it was a nice start.

It's turned around some, btw. I feel like I'm still running "below average," but nothing like before. I'm actually in the green for April.

That's a nice feeling. I have been lucky lately about not getting sucked out on. In the last week I have been all-in twice with an over pair to the board and busted a player with a lower overpair to the board.
