nah im not stupid. variance makes poker a cruel game, and im willing to admit that i wont make 3 more in a row. i probably wont even make one in my next 10. please look at my original question though... thanks guys

well thats not even totally true. in the one tourn where i got 9th, 13 handed i was AI preflop with AA v KJ. board read x x 9 T Q. so i wont even say that much. but you get the point

luck is an element in that my hands weren't cracked. luck won't get me to the final 9 three times in a row when there is 1200, 1200, and 860 people. i thought the same thing, "there's no way this is happening again" but it has. what do u think about higher stakes

hey all,long time lurker, one of my first posts.over the last 4 days i've been in 3 ten dollar MTT's on stars. (ID twebza, but the pokerdb hasnt been updated yet to reflect my last few days.) I've made the FT in 3 of them, and i've won 2 of them. my winnings add to just about 5k. there were roughly 1200 entrants in each.yes it felt good to brag.but my serious question, are results at this level indicative of what i can do at the next level? will my game carry over to middle/lower high stakes? will i be a winning player if i keep the same game that propelled me in these tournies?best,twebza

Ethical Move?

The following took place in a .50/.1 NL live cash game.After running bad for about a half hour, I had lost my original $60 buy in, and was steaming to say the least. My table knows my long and decorated history of tilt.I buy in for $80 dollars (more than what we normall buy-in) determined to chew up the now bigger stacks at the table. I pick up A
A 
in the small blind to several limpers. I make it $4.50 to go. One of the more naive players says, "Chris, did you even look at your cards?" I quickly reply "no."The table folds around to my nemesis who had been catching cards the last two days and had pulled in $400 even at our micro-stakes. The villain is one of my good friends, but this shouldn't carry too much moral weight as he is very wealthy and always plays his hardest against me.Thinking I was making this move dark and on tilt, he declares a raise. He makes it $12 to go on top of my raise. Without hesitation I push all in. Now I'll remind you that they take me for an honest kid and thought that I was doing this blind.After agonizing, the villain calls with K 
Q 
. My rockets hold up, and I scoop a $165 dollar pot. 
After the hand he says stuff you would expect, such as "Dude, not cool" and "That's bush," and "you shouldn't lie like that."To the last comment I snapped back "I lie everytime I bluff, it's a part of the game."Despite my defending myself, I couldn't help but feel a little guilty and I've been wondering if this move was fair game.What do you guys think? Is there room for moves like this in poker? Or do you maintain a certain degree of honesty with things such as "Have you looked at your hole cards?"
