Answer honestly (try to remember): Did you win any coinflips before this? Did you ever win with the worst hand? Did your dominating hands hold up more than they were supposed to?
I wouldn't be surprised if at least two of those were true. It's very difficult to get very deep in a big tourney without getting a little bit lucky... so I don't think your luck could have been that bad. |

Yes I did win coin flips, and I did get extremely lucky in one hand at the beginning of the tourney, thats not what I am talking about though, It seems to be that no matter how lucky I get in the beginning, its the end that always kills me...
I got lucky at the beginning, if I didn't, I either leave the tourney without any complaints, or rebuy. I won a couple of coin flips, but if I had lost them it would have not hurt me much, since most of the tourney I had a dominating chip stack, and I did get unlucky many times but I didn't really care about that because I would only lose about 10-15% of my chip stack by getting unlucky, but I don't think I put my chips all on the line since it was down to a 100 people or something. And to be down to 4 people and have a dominating hand, and not have it hold up is really really frustrating. I wouldn't even have been mad if I got to the final 7 and got out, because I know there was still a long way to go believe it or not, but to make it to top 4, and have a hand that would give you enough chips to be guaranteed $110.00, and have a shot at the $2600, well thats another story. I am a little less frustrated right now because I know there can be worse things that can happen to you in poker I guess, but I really really wanted to play the main event, and I'm def not putting up $2600 for it, I mean to get it in with only maybe $10 spent and play in the main event, wow, that would have been awesome, since I think right now I am playing the best tournament poker of my life, I am 90% sure I really could have done well... just sucks though

That's just it! The "Hot-Potato" of good luck / bad luck is always being passed around. It eventually hits everyone the same number of times. It just sucks that it hit you when it did (instead of when you called a guys all-in move how only had 1.5 BB left).
Wear oven mits next time  EDIT: I've seen you play and you'll end up on the happy side more than most. It'll come
