Ok, start off, this is not a bad beat story/rant/whinge.

I played the UKIPT yday (day 1b, table 31). To say the least it was grind. I went 9 (1 hour) levels without seeing a pair over 88. (not an exaggeration)

I'm trying to increase my live play, but as of yet i haven't played in many more than 10 big(ish) live tournaments (£/$500+). I Multitable MTTs online, but because of this i have nothing to relate being this card dead to, as you're not concentrating on just one table.

Does anyone with more live experience know if this happens occasionally, or is just pretty ridiculous.

(pretty lame thread, but i'm just curious)
thanks

you'll have a 2 hour period where you get dealt premium 3 times an orbit, just hope it comes in an EPT and not in a £200 freezeout

I think that some poker players pretend to have good hands when in fact they don't, I haven't worked out how to do that tho.
