First time I ever used a bad beat forum... lemme see now:Just played in the midnight Seat 5 sub sub qualifier for the Protege thing. To my left was a guy going all-in every hand, and a medium/big stack two to my right. I had a bit of a short stack. I raised with AK, guy to my left went all-in. Medium stack guy called, as did I. I have AK, all-in guy has Q7, and medium/big stack has KQ. Flop comes w/ a King giving me top pair. Turn blanks and I'm over 90% to win. 3 outer Queen comes and I'm out.It wouldn't have been so bad if I didn't get knocked out of the previous sub sub qualifier with KK. I had an avg. stack, big stack to my right. He raises me all-in with AK.Flop comes 10 x Q. Turn is the J and I'm gone.In between the two I decided to play a little short handed limit. I got my pair of Aces rivered by a set. Then I got my pocket 9's rivered by a set.Shouldn't I be winning over 90% of the time when I'm over 90% favored?Ah, this brings back bad memories of my previous Poker room experience.

Another qualifier, another rivered set to send me home. I have offically learned my lesson. No more qualifiers for me.

I've dropped so much on qualifiers over the past week, it makes me want to smash something, like the face of the next idiot who can't let go of A7o against a pre-flop raiser who just went all-in (A7 wins, btw, it's a frickin' winning hand!).
