Seems like ive been on a mad run this week...cant really believe how i could of been a none profitable player this week.
Day 2. Played in a 90 player tournament and down to the last 14 (9th = money) and pick up JJ in early position. I reraise all in while im 6th in chips. Player in mid position who is 4th in chips calls with 99. Only to spike a 9 on the flop and bust me. i know hes gotten lucky but this one didnt affect me. I thought it had to happen sometimes.
Day 3. I jump right back into the same tournament and believe it or not the exact same thing happens to me...5/6 places from the money with an average stack i push with JJ and im called by 99....only for another 9 to spike on the flop...
Day 5. Thinking ive played perfectly up to now i replay the same tournament and this time with 20 left i get KK in middle position and raise it all in. I get a call from a guy that only just doesnt have me covered....he shows 66. i dont think i need to explain that yes......he flops his 6. and im crippled to less than 1 BB....
I know this is kind of a rant. But this place needs some stories :P
Hope this makes you all feel better.

Well first i better set the scene, i play with a group of friends that i met at college and through other friends. Weve been playing together for about a year and a half now. And after months of Sit and Go's we thought we should start up a constant cash game (These taking place at the Grandmothers house of one of the people i play with) - Nana's. 
Our most recent game was 2 nights ago, i feel as though im on the edge of a very bad run and my lucks got to change soon, (You know the feeling, you hit a run of bad cards all night...and then you hit A6 and think ok im gona go for this...end up folding on the flop....and K5 takes it down. And your thinking why couldnt i have a worse hand than A6
)
Anyway not much to note from the game, my only notable take down of a pot was in a hand (Blinds, 10p/20p - ok its low stakes but the preflop action is insane lol)
Preflop
UTG raises to £0.60 (blind)
UTG+1 raises to £1.50
All the other 4 players call and so does UTG
So theres a $9 pot preflop. You look at most 0.10/0.20 nline cash games and most will be at the 2/3 range lol.
Well the flop comes Ad 10h 4d
SB raises to £2
Im on BB and i then raise to £10
UTG dwells up and lays down to me
Next 3 all lay down
Then SB goes into deep thought and lays it down
Both having AK & AQ
I probably played it well in my mind (Me having 5d 6d)
But just thought about how paid i may have got.
If anybody has any tips pn how the hand went please let me know.
