I do. What are some of your bad luck streaks? it seems sh!t always happens to me and nobody else. Car stolen/computer breaking/wallet stolen/arrested for nothing/ bank accts raided. I know there is prevention for everything but cmon! its all too coincidental.

Bad luck and good luck...it's all in how you see the world. You only have bad luck because you focus on the bad things happening to you.

but it was good luck that your car/wallet wasn't stolen at gunpoint and you were shot.

who gets arrested for nothing? were you convicted?

your bank account was raided? how and why?

I wouldnt consider not getting robbed at gunpoint good luck. Arresting wrognfully for dui that the judge thought was bullsh!t cop lied about it all. so not guiltyl Raided online. All i used was paypal and my card in person so someone got my nunbers and used it to clear the acct. In poker i cant believe the bad beats i get in poker. Consistently getting sucked out by one outters. Which should happen once in a blue moon but everyone knows it always does to me. Car stolen at my front door. I fixed the ladys computer at work to help her son out. I gave her the computer 2 days ago and the same day i got the BSOD. replaced all parts and then the Hard drive goes out. Lost all info. and while im trying to fix it at 7pm someone pops open my lock and grabs my wallet which was in the car cuz i was going right back out. so within an hour that happens. I dont see much good luck. I never win raffles at work. the most odd theings happen. i understand where you say if you only focus on the bad things but trust me this is just a drop in the bucket. I dont bitch about this stuff happenning anymore i just accept it and laugh it off and explain to everyone that knows my luck and they cant believe it

Apparently you don't watch it.

Hurley one of the main characters played the lotto with those numbers. Ever since then he had nothing but bad luck. Uncle died, mother broke ankle, mansion caught on fire.

I'm sorry about your wallet, but you really were asking to have it stolen if you left it in plain sight inside the car. Two seconds to throw it in the glove compartment would have kept it safe. If you're that careless all the time, don't blame it on bad luck.

Why did you get pulled over for DUI? The cop just had nothing better to do with his day?

When you play poker, do you make it cheap enough for other people to chase their draws? Maybe you need to rethink your game. Or your entire attitude.

I know hot to play poker very well i have beat out 10,000 people online thats not pure luck. i did a legal turn and i had a couple beers with my pizza.pulled over for illegal turn. i took pics of the scene and thats why the judge thought it was bs cuz it was a legal turn. still cost me 2700 bucks. who said my wallet was in plane sight? it was in the center console. part of my luck. but i dont need to go into details about deaths and tragedies to justify my question on this post. take it or leave i got bad luck

I find the harder I work, the better my luck gets.

For example in poker the luck of your hand gets better as you learn the game and the more you pay attention.

I have been playing poker awhile. read supersystem and other books and play alot. but i did say one outers. I already got all my chips and they get that miracle quad to my full house. or str8 flush to my nut flush. the last 2 games the guys i played with cant believe it and they comment on how unlucky i am. im not crying about it all im just asking if anyone else out there feels the same way. like good ol' murphy there

I forget the funniest beat . i flopped a 9 high flush. they guy flopped a royal flush. thats not such a bad beat since the jack and king were still available but he had both. Im betteing nobody has seen anyone flop a royal. odds are slim to none

i dont have bad luck but i know someone who does:

stabbed in the back after getting into a fight

next year robbed and brutally beaten (3 weeks hospital)

next year shot outside a party by a friend

next year, finds out insurance will not pay for his gunshot wounds/hospital stay for being shot (turned 19, did not attend college, his parents insurance will not cover him)

his bad luck was actually contagious, i lived with him in college and our apt gets broken into.

Perfect example of extreme bad luck. You hear stories of unlucky people getting struck by lightning 11 time and freak accidents happening all the time to them. hes one of those.
