Message: [QUOTE="Effexor, post: 726596, member: 11100"] In a cash game this is absolutely true. The flips I was speaking of were all in SNGs and MTTs. You know, your typical low M push with AQ or 66 type of thing. The OP's question / statement was do some people running cold in general, and the real world answer to that I think is yes. Statistics and math do hold up over time and sample sizes but it is very possible to run bad and literally never ever see enough hands to "catch up" to where you should be statistically speaking. I couldn't agree more with your above statement. What I want to add is that being better than your opponent is so much more than the luck of the cards and always making the right bets or calls with pot odds. (At least in NL, Limit may be a different story) In NL, making good reads, playing position etc etc. basically outplaying the villians can overcome cold cards to a certain degree. [/QUOTE]
