So you're all going to tell me this is a "normal and random" hand..?

Ok so i have to shove with A5 because i'm shortstacked,  and fair enough the KK should win because he's ahead..

But really..   two fives on the flop..  followed by a king on the river?

is this because my rag was a 5 ??

If i had A4..  and villian had QQ..   would it of come 44 on the flop, with a queen on the river?

I think the answer is Yes..!

    They happen to us all.

    If you cant deal with them then poker aint going to be much fun for you.

    Find a way to deal with standard run outs or find a new hobby imo

    You are both quite right Reeler and Teddy.. but if you read my post you will see that i am not complaining about losing the hand...

    I would like your opinion on the board texture as it was dealt..

    Obviously i didnt want a call holding A5..  but too many times i see flops and rivers that strongly connect with the players hands that are in the pot..

    do you understand that?

    I am told that in live play..  it is very hard to connect with a flop.. and yet here i flop trip 5's, and villian makes a full house on the river...


    are you telling me that this is purely coincidence?

    it would make more sence if the flop river and turn were all bricks, and i would lose the hand anyway..

    why does the software mimic peoples hands??

    Yep, maybe, i'm glad you understand my point teddy.. and kinda believe it instead of pretending i'm a nut job like hfghfghfghr does.. lol

    but seriously, people just accept it too easily..  ive seen sooo many hands on here, but youre about to finish a dym and you're sitting there with AA..

    the small stack is panicing and shoves with something like 7 5 off..  then the flop and turn come K75 7

    sometimes it just doesnt seem random..  but hey, no-one believes me anyway..

    Yeah, I do think you're a nut job. And sorry to shatter your illusion, but Teddy will think along the same lines as me as well. I think he has well and truly wooooshed you above!

    Surprised to see a guy who has played over 14k games on Sky crying about hands in BBV. Need to sharpen up your mental game whilst you dry your eyes, or just give up altogether.

    FWIW if you post a hand without the drama and tears I'll happily give you my thoughts.

    i was playing live at bolton G on saturday night, we were doen to the final 30 players one player had approx 200K (about double chip average) in 3 consecutive hands he was gone. Getting it in good agains smaller stacks and being rivered in each hand, once by me. If it had been online, all conspiricists and their dog would have yelled "rigged". 

    The thing to remember in Poker is if, for instances you get it in good everytime doesnt mean you will win a tournament, If you get it in 4-1 on 10 times in a row, you are SUPPOSED TO LOSE TWICE. Thats the nature of the beast.

    Hi Jimmy riddle can you answer me a question?

    In a previous post you said if short stack shoves they always win and flop would come 997 if held 97? So guess this hand proves that's wrong!!

    I haven't read the rest of the replies, because I really don't want to, but I'll just say this:

    You called an all-in with a raggy ace and lost to a better hand. It doesn't matter at all that there were two fives on the flop because your money was already in the middle. You were behind going in, and you were behind coming out.

    That's it really.

    Your scope is really good.
    You're very experienced online. 
    After 12k games shouldn't you be past all this crapp?
    Also if you always know what the river card is going up be, shouldn't you play through the streets and by the turn you'll know whether you're going to win the hand or not?

    Your read on  hhyftrftdr is pretty good in fairness though.

    In Response to Re: So you're all going to tell me this is a "normal" hand..?:
    id just like to say that after reading your recent BBV posts, seeing you sat on the same DYM tables as me today made some very interesting viewing, and i cant help but agree with the people advising you to look at your own play and how it can help prevent these bad beats (although i did see you take one genuinely sick one today which im sure will be posted soon)  until then though i look forward to seeing you at more tables :) *ater posting this i noticed you posted the hand i mentioned into your other bbv thread*
