Can't win coinflips

Posted Thu Aug 17, 2006 11:50 pm GMT by TheSalche
Seriously tonight I haven't been able to win coin flips, I've been bubbling SnGs like crazy and it is pissing me off.

My last two sets of 4 have been 3 no cashes and 1 first ... which actually makes for a very small profit but I should be winning more ...

posting hands later ...

I know how you feel. I'm on a 9 buy-in downswing in SnG's. Sad

Shitty man, hopefully your luck changes soon.

I'm having a similar problem ATM except I am continually getting in ahead and I get outdrawn Sad IE I'm 60/40, 70/30 or even 90/10!!! to win and idiots making TERRIBLE all-in calls continue to hit their cards on me.

(IE, I raise big from UTG, MP min-raises and I go all-in w/ my AA -- we both have same stack size -- idiot calls with K10s and OF COURSE he wins with a K-high straight)

Anyway, as said, hope it clears up for you.

WTH...you flipping a two headed coin buddy and calling tails every time?... Laughing ...your right you can't win a coin flip. Hope that luck turns around for you... Smile
