I used to play on poker stars a few years back. I won around 12k from that site but then it all seemed to stop. Catching bad beat after bad beat and couldnt seem to cash in the tournaments anymore. I had to change to Fulltilt and it seemed to make a big difference.
You might want to give Poker Stars a break and play on a different site for about a month then go back to poker stars and see if it changes to the better.
Sometimes you need to take a break from a site if your just throwing money away. It worked for me.
This is not good for you atleast you still got itm but after spending time even more than an hour to get only 18 cents doesnt seem worth it but still better than not get anything. the thing is sometimes when many people are sitting out you are so used to getting chips the easy way that when somebody suddenly appears on ur table u tend to bet high you feel you got so many chips but if they blind were not too high you can lose all of them in 1 or 2 hands we shud be careful about this one.
It looks like you raised ATo from UTG you are setting yourself up to get called by a dominating Ace in this situation bad reverse implied odds spot. What range of hands were you trying to fold out by shoving that would not have folded to another bet where you did not have to put your tourny life at risk? Sorry it did not work out for you.
You had to fold when you saw the spades on the flop. Its noly your fail tha you lose all your chips. You played very silly this hand he coud have and A with better kicker and a flush draw like maybe he coud play and he was going to own you again your kicker was too low man. But and the other player is an donk cuz when you go all in he call you but "shits" happen its part of the poker next time you will win.
Ohhh.pokerstars...im playing now on this site and i cann tell you that when you lose 1 2 times in row the 3 4 5 x..times will come,,,u need to know when to say stop,that;s way I only play zomm poker for only 30 minutes/sesion,After the 30 minutes i take a break of 5 minutes and then play again,This forumula works very good for me,and I make decent profits.As for the tournaments i can;t say a play very much because the "lucky fishes" almost always winn.
As for your hand...its a common thing on pokerstars.
Yeah, chasers drive me crazy also. But I guess he just had too many chips invested to fold that. Don't think if it were me would have called or made any bets after the flop though. Although some bluff, so can also see why you didn't want to surrender the chips.
