Bad beats are part of poker and life. You can do everything right and still get destroyed.

It is of no use to complain about them... nobody cares : )

Example #1:

Why push with that? You will only get called by hands containing overcards. Then its a luckfest. A raise gains you information. Your chipstack is not low enough to be desperate/greedy. Seat 2 has enough chips to call with that garbage.

Looking at Examples 2 & 3, it looks like he used Example 1 to take advantage of your tendency to push and not play post-flop poker. When you push, you are hoping that there is not a big hand against you. When you run into one, you are a huge dog.  Learn how to play after the flop, then you won't have to rely on luck to make your good hands hold up.

just make a note the guy likes coin flips if you run up on him again.  He strikes me as the type who likes to coin flip and gamble early on to try and get a big chip stack going.

Where did you go wrong?  why call an all-in preflop there for your tournament life with QQ when the blinds are at 40 and you're nowhere low in chips?

We call the all in because we are going to double up a huge percentage of the time, against this player, in this spot. What is the alternative? Fold QQ to a donk who appears to be shoving w/ any two cards?
