Ok well I play in a ten person tournament each week with a $200 winner take all pot.Last 4 weeks i have come 2, 3, 2, 3 it jsut seems that when i get to the last few players I try to make something happen and jsut ge trediculously outdrawn, week in weekout.Tonight I was massively shortstacked against two blokes had about $70 in chips to their combined of 1930 and came back to have about 500 in chips. Then I started to get a rush, AJ unsuited, AQ unsuited and AJ suited. On all three of these I proceeded to be out drawn after going all in before the flop by 47 unsuited, K8 unsuited and Q6 unsuited respectively. This jsut seems to keep happening I get to the final few and i can start tasting the win then I get rediculously outdrawn like three times and Im on the rail. What am I doing wrong?thanks guys.

How did you lose three all in's, when you had less chips than the other players?

If you get your money in with aj vs 47 you'll get all the chips...in the long term. If that's all of your problems, go buy an ice cream or something. That isn't a problem, that's just some bad luck.
