Playing in two separate tourneys at Doyle's room on 12/8/06 I got beat by the same suckout draw twice within hours. Flopped a straight and played it to get my opponent all in. Both times they had A7 and A8. Both times sucked out with A7 and A8 on the turn and river to beat my straight all in with a pair only catching a boat on the river. In my view there has to be something very wrong with the way cards are dealt in these tourneys. Ods against it are way too low... Worst bad beat story.

I've been seeking solace today after two days of consistent losses at online no-limit. I don't know if I'm on tilt or just having a run of bad luck, but it is really depressing me. Your analysis of the primal nature of our response to something "unfair" is absolutely correct, though. I've been cursing and repeating the words "Unbelieveable" myriad times the last two days because I just can't buy luck and in my rage I am probably starting to play unconsciously poorer and poorer. Hope that today's reading will help me tonight. Very good read. I’ve been seeking solace today after two days of consistent losses at online no-limit.
