Tourneys are a joke!

Getting so tired of playing tourneys for the same players to keep on winning. I have losted so many points playing for nothing in the last week. Game is so unfair here. There is no way the same players win hand after hand like they do. Oh well glad its fake chips.

Sorry to hear of your frustration. Are you speaking of SnG tourneys or MTT? When I first started I had trouble with MTT so I switched back and forth sometimes I do well, others, well I share your frustration. Truth is there really is a different strategy to win at MTT as opposed to SnG and again with Ring Games. The key is chip management and I found that calling all bets is usually the worst thing to do. I fold a majority of the time but I think its the luck of the draw, be it a “live” dealer or online. Keep on keeping on you will win.

Good luck at the tables

Seems like I get good cards than the dealer flops, but when I get bad cards than they hit. I don’t play bingo, I don’t play slop hands and I cant win for nothing. Very frustrating but good thing is not costing no money so that’s a plus !

We’ve all been there. It is frustrating to fold a 6 - 2 and find out that you would have flopped a full house. Then there is the terrible coolers. Yesterday I was eliminated after 3 hands, the first & third ones were straights and the second one was a full house. All 3 of them lost and I was out. Then later on that evening I won a tournament and most of the night I won with a single pair or two pairs. It is what it is. The important thing to note is that Ring Games are really drastically different than tournaments. In a ring game, you can play very tight and wait for a monster hand, which usually shows up eventually. I learned early on that doing that in an MTT will almost always lose. You need to take some chances to build a stack because the blinds and antes will eventually take you broke and once you are down to 20 percent of your initial stack, it is almost impossible to catch up. I emphasize “almost” because it is possible to have a run of good beats and recover; it just is best not to get into that situation. Good Luck and don’t that the frustration cause you to tilt.

nice response, but Tasha1966 seems to have leave Replay…

Too many platers delay their play in tournaments, thinking they have a better chance of finishing higher. One of many reasons I don’t play them unless gifted 50k ticket or higher.

I love me some mtt. I look when it beeps. Top 4 should be the goal.
