It seems to happen a lot. Playing an SnG with 5-6 players left or on the bubble, and I'll get tossed something like 79o or a comparable hand. Playing tight I fold before the flop and by this point blinds are usually 20/40, more often than not I have about 960-980 chips at this point in the game. Flop drops and it's a straight draw (in this case 6,7,8,9,T rainbow) and I'm feeling like an idiot when the dude across the tables takes a decent sized pot on the river with a pair. This has happened about a half dozen or so times in the last few days, and I'm wondering if this is a play error on my part, or if it's just a resonable casualty of playing tight in the early, mid, and bubble stages of an SnG?
