I mean, i know it's only bottom two pair but I was 10000% certain I was winning when I pushed on the turn, should I fold that? I know he is on the draw, so what should I do?

He called a pot sized bet on the flop for his flush, then another pot sized bet on the turn when he was 60/40 underdog?


And this one

Was I right to push? I don't wanna mess about with AA when I only have 10xBB, I was quite happy to just take the blinds there, but then he calls with 33 and busts me...

Same situation with KK today, other guy calls with 77 and busts me!

I would say 6-7 of my last 10 tourneys I have had my big pairs busted by smaller pairs or been busted out when I was atleast 70% to win after a flop.

Your opponents made the mistakes. I mean it is pretty obvious.
Come and cry on my shoulder here. These beats can go on for a while as well.

Stay at your limit or step one down. keep pushing your money when you have the best hand.
They are making mistakes by calling you, in the end they will pay you the interest.
