    I lost KK 6x today. 2 late in the 2 cubed. Once in the 40k with about 300 left for a huge stack. and then KK<A4 and A T twice lol

    Still a profitable day though... just not as profitable as it should of been, but there is always tomorrow.

    How do you get out of this vicious runbad? What should I do differently?

    Some fun stats I went over after I bubbled the 20k AQ<AJ, the 15k JJ<AT, the 10k AK<AK, 5k AQ<A6. All courtesy of Pokertracker3 and Pokerstars HH...

    Out of my last 96 flips.. I have came on top 35 times. 51 times I have been ahead preflop (66 v AK) 45 times I have been behind (AK v 66).

    Last 2 days I have had 26 flips 100 away from the money or ITM. I was successful in 9 of them. I was ahead pre 14x and behind 12x. 6 of those flips were top 100 of 2500+ fields, I won 3 of 6.

    It's not going to help trying to figure out how bad you run. It's a part of poker. Just keep playing and over the long run it evens out. There is nothing you can do to change it, just keep getting it in good more often than not.

    Yeah you are right. Just so close to huge days, and ending up on the shorter end of the stick. I guess all the stars will allign one day, or it is back to SNGs for me lol
