Hitting Your Set Or Trips
Erimus:
In the early stages ot tourney you have hit your set and some body shoves all in is this just an insta call for most of you and if the higher set has been hit, then thats poker, even with scary boards ie flush and str8 draws.
I have hit set 3 x this week and on all occassions been beaten by a higher set or str8.
Over time this will be winning move (calling the all in) agree or disagree.

my advice is that you should avoid walking under all ladders,be careful around mirrors,cross your fingers when you go all in,get a lucky rabbits foot,touch a wooden object 3 times daily,avoid black cats,An apple a day keeps the doctor away,find a four-leaf clover to find good luck,never open an umbrella in the house,find a horseshoe,remember you can break a bad luck spell by turning seven times in a clockwise circle,eat lots of garlic ;D good for live play this :P,under pants worn inside out will bring good luck also a wonder bra on the head met help,Goldfish in the house bring bad luck,they also say when the bottom of your feet itch, you will make a trip...have you had an itch?,it is bad luck to chase someone with a broom,You must get out of bed on the same side you got in on or you will have bad luck,It is unlucky to rock an empty rocking chair,Smell dandelions, wet the bed i guess thats not good for bringing luck ;D,do not step on cracks in the pavements,have plenty of liquid nourishment after a bad beat........ :o
and finally always remember most of the money you"ll win at poker comes NOT from the brilliance of your own play, but from the ineptitude of your opponents.
Hope these points help you , if i was you i"d resort to the bra on a head and inside out under pants and hopefully this run of bad beats will end.

seriously if you are playing in a low buy in mtt or a turbo then yes it is very hard to get away from. Depends if you are a survivalist or a accumulator, the survivalist may look at the board and if its connected or 3 of the same suit or the villian was very tight and had raised preflop utg and the flop came AK5 and he only went all in when he had the nuts,then a fold for these type of scenarios would be ok.
The accumulator on the other hand will think he is ahead most of the time and will call.
Depends which camp you are in, this question is ok as obviously you are slightly miffed at being on the end of these beats but if i was you maybe asking the forum what strategy they employ in the early stages of a mtt be it high or low buy in, might benefit you more?
hope this answers your question Erimus.
