Default Is it just me or is this ridiculous?

So I took a month break from poker to clear my head because I was struggling to deal with the continuous beats tourney's were issuing. Feeling fresh I entered a tourney and did pretty well, coming in around 20/500 - I actually managed to win 3 coin flips(this just does NOT happen to me) and the hands I was massively dominating with, held up.

Feeling encouraged I've played 1 tourney per day and these are my results after 16 tourneys looking at the hands I went out on: Funny thing is there wasn't a single coinflip.

bad call: 1
setup eg set under set, KK vs AA etc:4
pushbot and lose with rags: 2
beats: 9 (average equity when chips were put in: 75%)

I don't normally go back and look at results but when the beats piled up like they have I just had to do something. Maybe a longer break, like say the rest of my life is in order...

If you'd stop misplaying every hand you wouldn't have that problem.
