ok we all take bad beats, we all remember them more than the ones we dish out. I don't usually mind them too much because i know they happen for and against me. but this morning i played 3 2 table sit & go's, got to final table of each when this happened just before the money....
game A: I have AhKh guy before me raises and i re-raise him for about half his chips, he calls, flop comes Ks8hTh he checks i move all in he calls! shows ATos, turn no help, river T (not a heart!)
so he catches a 2 outer to cripple me and im put all in next bb and go out, what irks me about this 1 tho is that he knew enough that altho he caught the flop he might not have it so he checked but STILL called when i put him all in!! 
odds of this please?
game B: i have AKos on the button and raise enough to put bb all in if he calls, he calls and shows AQos great! i dominate him and probably only a Q can save him! wrong!
flop TJX turn X river K to make his straight! i mean how likely is that??? i would almost prefer he made runner runner Q's
odds of this please?
game C: full table and i'm not doing great i have hit nothing and am down to about 800TC on the bb i get QQ several callers for 100 back round to me, i move in for reast of my chips and get 2 callers flop is TXX all lower than Q great! turn is X (still low and no flush/str8 possibilities) river is another T, they have checked down to this point where 1 of them raises to 1k other 1 folds and i just know he made a set, he flips over AT and i'm out.
odds please?
3 in a row is just so hard to take! i better not get f*cked again today!
update:
game 4: I'm down to last 4 but i'm well behind in chips so i try a steal with A9s on the bb 2 callers before me i move all in 1 calls me with 55 (my heart sinks, but at least i aint going in in front this time  ) turn J9K yay i'm ahead (oh no  ) turn X river .... 5
