Okay I know this post will be moved to some corner of these forums where it won't be read, but for now I just to have to vent a little.
Basically I've suffered the biggest downswing at poker since my birth.
I have my hand history all saved for the past two days, during which I've been playing donkstake tournaments. During the past 8 tournaments, I've lost every single hand that may possibly be considered a coinflip. I've suffered beats when I was ahead that were insane. I know this whiny shit must be posted every other day here, but I had to get it out. Aces cracked, queens cracked, set of jacks v. underpair loses (runner-runner flush), quads lose to river'd straight flush, (all this with money in good...). In AK v 44 or AK v. 22 or 88 v KJ hands, etc. I've lost EVERY SINGLE FLIP (allin) for the past FIFTEEN races.
Okay you can delete this now.
Basically, I flipped 15 coins and they all came up tails. And I lost money. [title of post].

Get through it and know there is some light at the end of the tunnel and while you're at it try to improve your game.

Post Bad Beat rants and stories all you want. Just make sure you post them in the "Bad Beats" Section of Poker Etcetera. As for your rant. I feel your pain man. We just keep on truckin' because we know, as long as we get our money in, while we're ahead, we'll always come out winners, even if we don't have the chips to show for it on that hand.
Good luck.

you may want to try getting in fewer coinflips if at all possible.
