I can't beat luck

Thats my new phrase. Check out this hand.

Rant On -----
On line poker is rigged. It has to be. There is just know way I can be running this bad. I consistently get my money in way ahead just to get sucked out on. I have had it with this one.

Poker Stars is dead to me. I have dropped $90 this month on suck out after suck out, it truely amazing. I win this hand I win the SNG.

This month is all about taking suck outs. If my hands would hold up I would be unstoppable. The reality is I know I will get sucked out on, its just the large number of suck outs I have had in the last two weeks has been unreal. Tonight I went 3/5 down $2.50 because I played two $11 sns, lost them both, on to A6 vs 55 I flopped A6 he caught a set, and top pair with nut flush draw and missed and he out kicked me.

The two I cashed one was for a first and the other a second in which I had a huge chip lead and lost to 3 suck outs in a row before I finally had to go all in because I was short stacked, and I out flopped him only to have him catch the flush on the river.

I started to play some cash to help the varience this month. Won $18 in the cash game so I am back up for the month. A whopping $7.50. I hope my SNG luck changes soon, a nice run puts me back to even for the month on Stars.
