four different satellite final tables today to the Sunday Million/warm up.... on each one I flopped an open-ended straight + flush draw or straightflush draw, twice with two overs (i.e. QJs on an 1095 flop), once with one over, and I didn't hit any of them... ended up bubbling all four tournaments....

I'm not that upset, shiat happens, but missing every part of four of them seems unduly harsh.

Seems harsh, but not hitting a draw doesn't equal a bad beat. %-wise, you should be doing a little better than that, but I experience the same thing time after time after time...

It's like losing 4 60/40s in a row not that uncommon
