EPIC Failure

The title says it all for yesterday's run.  My girlfriend and I were both astonished at the incredible run-bad. Mind you I was playing on the loose side but the hands I went out on were legit. I only cashed in the $4.40 for like $8.00 after going through over $100 in buy-ins. I should have stopped playing, really.

Here's my final hand from the Big $8.80:

I was surprised but not totally shocked to see his hand as he was a whale playing 57/14. Of course yesterday the whales always had the nuts.

I can't remember which on this is from now but the guy here was playing 56/39 so I figured I was well ahead of his range. I was right, but he out-flopped me of course, lol.

Same tourney as above. This guy was a solid player..playing 17/15/11. I think AQss is obv in his range as well as AA,KK,AK but that's about it. People could probably say they could get away from this hand, but I know I can't...not with 2 hands that beat me here.
