As I have seen this headline a few times I would like to share my experience of last night,below are a few that I can remember.
1) 2.6. Vs AA , board runs KQ242
2) A7 vs 88,  board j9677
3) QQ vs J8. Board 57j8Q
4) 77 vs AJ  board aj367
5)10 10 vs AK. Board 9A6710

This post is not a moan,gripe or any such.the tourney was a bounty hunter and my hand is posted first in all cases and in most cases I was short stacked and all in pre flop,this was not online it was live at a casino.

My point is these things do happen live that's just the way it is,for me in life acceptance is the key,of course it is galling when we are on the receiving end of it but if I can just accept this happens it truly helps my game and possible tilt in the next hand.

As for bad play,that is person to person specific as everyone sees things in a different way, example below.

Huge stack raises massive pre under the gun with both shorties in blinds,both have to call their stacks off(believe me they had to) one had 33 tot her had 56, the mega stack had 46, board ran sumat like 6k935
Now he has doubled both of them up with what some people would see as stupid ,maybe it was,maybe the huge stack is thinking if I get lucky I get two bounties and next time I raise big I will get a call from a bigger stack and I have a monster hand and get all his chips,bounty, and now I am pretty much guaranteed at least top 3.

In conclusion it is a great GAME, if you can't take these things happen I would suggest taking up another.of course we all need a rant now ang again,I certainly do,but I am100 percent confident(btw there's no such thing as 110percent all of you X factor,bgt contestants) that this site is not fixed,rigged,or any other other shenanigans.
Enjoy your game chaps and good luck at the tables and in life.
