Hahaha my luck is 1/729 of what it should be! (rant alert)

The last three SNGs ive played, have been going like this:

I take down alot of small-medium pots with little action, by semibluffing and showing solid hands.

Then I get dealt AK.

I raise pot preflop, get one caller.

First time flop comes K rag rag, we both end up all in, other guy shows pocket jacks, and scores a jack on the turn. Chance of me loosing that hand at the time I went all in: 1-9. Okay fair enough, first big hand im involved in I loose as a 9-1 favorite, shit happens.

Next SNG, steal some pots, win some small ones, not putting much at risk till dealt ak. we are two guys at 2500 chips, leading the sng. i bet pot preflop, he calls. flop comes qj rag. i check, he bets small i call. turn is a 10. i check, he bets pot, i reraise all in, he calls. he flops over queens and jacks, giving him two pair, and leaving me with the nut straight. river comes jack, giving him a full house. chance of me loosing after we got all our money in ? 1-9. Okay, BAD luck I say to myself! loosing the last two big pots ive been in after going all in as a 9-1 favorite two times in a row.

Next SNG. History repeats itself. Stealing pots, smallpottet showdowns. Dealt AK with 1900 chips and 9 players left.

Bets pot, one caller, flop comes rag rag k. I check, other guy, whos a big stack goes all in, I know hes full of it, so I call. he flips over 44 giving him one pair of 4s agains my kings ace kicker. turn rag, river is a 4 giving him hes set. Chance of me loosing at the time we went all in ? 1-9.

So where does that leave us at ? it leaves us with the last three pots ive been in, of decent sice, ive gona all in as a 9-1 favorite, all three times ive lost. the chance of me loosing three 9-1 favorite bets in a row ? 1-729.

NOW THATS FUCKING BAD LUCK!!!! OMFG!!!!!

That's bad luck, yes. But that's poker man.

1/729 isn't that bad when you compare it to the odds of a day going by without a bad beat(s) being posted: 1/75687338596. My calculation my be a little off due to rounding, but it's close.
