Default SO F*&#*# SICK OF STARS

Like the last 6 out of 7 SNGs I've got my money in way ahead on the bubble and get 2 outed by a donkey w/ 2 cards to come. WTF!!! Stars loves to pull out creative ways to fu*k you over. So damn frustrated.
3 flopped sets outdrawn by an overpair. My Aces lose to AKo all in before the flop. QQ lose to Q8. Guy calls all in on flop w/ middle pair and catches an 8. How do you overcome the constant BS?

dude... You are waaaay off.
I think we all know by now that AK is a huge favourite over AA because of reverse implied odds, and the fact that he has more ways to improve. He can pair his King AND he makes more straights than you. Exact same thing for Q8 vs QQ.
The sets getting outdrawn are kind of unfortunate but really... bottom set gets overplayed so much. You usually want to see a safe river card with no possible straights or flushes before you ever bet with your sets.

Hope I've been able to help.
Back to the drawing board, spyu

Well on all my sets I had my money in on the flop. And I didn't have bottom set. 2 were middle w/ 66 and 88.
One was top w/ 1010. All scenarios were pretty much bet raise reraise all in call. By JJ and QQX2. JJ catches on the turn. QQ catches on the river 2. And w/ AA vs AK all money was in preflop. QQ vs Q8 flop is J 8 3 He bets big I raise all in he calls all in w/ middle pair no draw. Aside from the fact he called $200 preflop w/ Q8o UTG.
