    shit cards

    Does everyone else get just absolute shit cards for starters and decent starters then a shit flop for extended periods of time? I have got the worst cards I think that it is possible to get for days on end here. I understand its "random" but does it happen to everyone else like this?

    Hurls, I typically run like this. I usually get KQ, Q-10, J9 crap like that or Ace Rag for the first parts of tourneys. In which the flops come & it's always low cards or a middle straight draw I have no piece of. I hit a few of these just enough to straggle along in most tourneys. About the 150-300 Blind level I get 4-7's, 93o, and that crap. So I get to sit on my hands or on occasion limp in.

    That being said, These last two weeks I've got nothing but the 4-7 off variety of low balls with one or two hands that end up costing me a ton of points because I'm tired of being card dead. But I know for the last few months I've seen more of the top paragraph.

    yea i was just wondering because for a week or so I was getting nothing but the nuts for hands i mean a felt bad getting such good cards, now i am on a week or so with just horrible, must be typical then cause i mean some of these hands that are consecutive 47 26 310 for streches have been crazy so guess its just how it is, i think we all know too that until you get to the big blinds in a tourney there is always a calling station at your table. Well hope your luck changes

    Considering it's SBR Poker Software, you should just go all in on the flop. Chances are you'll prolly screw somebody over that has AA on the River.
