2 of the 3 were in Omaha which is a high variance game. straight vs straight in one hand, set vs wrap (maybe ...no HH was posted) in the other. In both those cases you might have been a dog.

i did it with the straight vs straight hand and the calc gave me those odds: 93.29 % tie, 2.44 % to win for me (i held a queen) and 4.27 % to win for him (he held just the flush draw and had no pairs at all).
so if you think less than 5 % is much.... and the thing isnt that i just lost this one hand, that can happen once if you play omaha. But to get bad beaten 3 times in a row in a minute, that sucks! well but its poker.. sometimes it sucks, sometimes youre the king...

gl at the tables

flop came nut for you nut for him ... you both got it in ... very reasonable play for both of you

his redraw was better than your redraw ... the slight favorite hand won ... its fairly common to see things like this in Omaha
