12 out of 15.....should i just give up?

#1 31st October 2008, 7:55 PM

Redently i enrolled in a tourney on fulltilt poker. Stud H/L. Of my 8 seat table 6 were dead stacks leaving me and one other player. I managed to last a whoping 15 hands. In these 15 hands i had nothing less then a straight for the Hi pot, and hit A-5 twice for the low. I won 2 of these 15 hands, tied 1 and lost 12. Also tied for the low both times id hit A-5.

With only two only drawing cards, is this un heard of? Or is it just my increasing run of bad luck in online tourneys? Please post replies with you worst runs as i'd love to take comfort in knowing its not just me........

Thats not even that much.......It sounds as if you may not have the stomach for the swings of a poker game.

If you are out of a Stud H/L tourney in 15 hands, especially with a bunch of sitters, you are doing something wrong.

It's only you. No one else ever goes on bad runs. We all win all the time. Just kidding.
Hang in there. Your luck will turn around. But for me when I'm running bad, it seems that Stud games really seem to exacerbate the downward spiral.
GL2U!
