Is it just my luck lately?..

I have had bad runs of cards in the past before, but not quite like the last several days on Merge. Just referring to hands with my AK vs Ax, or Kx, it sure seems the x is pairing up an awful lot. For instance, today, I get AK in the sb, blinds 75/150. Utg+1 player (loose/aggr) makes it 400, next player calls, it fold to me, I push all in for a bit over 1400 total, the original raiser mucks, the smooth caller, calls and turns up K,10 off. 10 immediately flops. Happening a lot lately, similarly with AK against say, A6 off, the 6 flops, and its over. I call it the "Murphy's Law of Poker", i.e. if it can happen, it probably will. Ok, well I vented enough. Eventually I'll get out of this mini slump.

Know what ya mean Mich. Don't worry though, we all go on these runs. Good and Bad. You'll get ur swag back soon.

Unfortunately, that's poker. Ya gotta just keep playing your game and the variances will equal out.

I'm currently going through a slump like that. Ace rags are busting my Ace Kings and Ace Queens.

Glad I stumbled on this post. I know you saw it today but my AK and AQ never hold vs QK. I cant tell you how many times I shove AQ or AK into a weak player's limp who then snap calls with QK and gets there. It makes me sick.

Poker is skill but luck sometimes it defines why the game is so exciting!
