Default I rarely win any SNG HU....

I loose to many HUs...

Often we are even or I am way in front, my chips go to the middle nearly everytime, but I'm outdrawn very often...

newest example:

Starting game xxxxx.

HERO is at seat 5 with 5,855.
erica999 is at seat 7 with 4,145.

The dealer is seat 5.

HERO posts a blind of 100.
erica999 posts a blind of 200.

(HERO is dealt Qc Jc.)

Pre-flop:
HERO raises 200.
erica999 calls for 200.

The flop comes
4d Jd 6h.

erica999 bets 800.
HERO raises 2,400.
erica999 goes all-in for 2,945.
HERO calls for 545.

Showdown:

erica999 shows: 4c 3c
4d 4c Jd 6h 3c
A pair of Fours

HERO shows: Qc Jc
Jd Jc Qc 6h 4d
A pair of Jacks

The turn comes 2d.
The river comes 5c.

HERO shows: Qc Jc
Jd Jc Qc 6h 5c
A pair of Jacks

erica999 shows: 4c 3c
6h 5c 4d 3c 2d
Straight, Six high

erica999 wins pot (8,290).

Or that one:
Donk raised his SB, I reraise with JJ, he pushes (ne almost never folded), he called with T8s and got a flush on the turn...

Obviously, somebody hit the "Busto" button on your account. Try not to get all-in until after the river is dealt then you can't get bad beated so often.

great advices guys...

from my last 7 HUs I lost 6, the one I won was because villain had a connection problem and I took his blinds every hand.

What kind of advice would you like? You're getting your money in good that's all you can do.

If you're looking for someone to cry to about bad beats that's what AIM buddies are for... [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]

close this thread please unless hero posts hands with difficult decisions. we have all experienced enough bad beats to be surprised by this. It's a mathematical phenomenon called variance. which buyin is this btw?

If you're getting the chips in HU when you're way ahead, how is this a problem? Smash the monitor and load up another one.

Of course it seems like you are always getting sucked out on but like said earlier you are getting your chips in when ahead. That is all you can ask for. We all get bad beats.
