moaners!
Hi folks,
Sorry this is a moan about moaners who moan when they get beat!
Why do people moan when they get beat by a better hand?
I mean, come on it's just a game!
Yeah ok if it's a bad beat, then ok you've got a good reason.
If it's just a beat say nh or wp and carry on.
No ones making you to make the call!!!
We all get beat, thats the name of the game.
Had a guy last night, I won a pot and he moaned.
Ok I caught my card on the rivier and I bet the pot, he went all in and I called and won the pot.
Now if he had won, I bet he wouldn't of moaned about that?!
Thanks for reading this.

Im a moaner, not because i lose, but the time spent playing a sit and go or a tourny....only to get fizzed out just before the cash, because i had the cheek to raise with QQ....nad of course there is always some muppet with K4 of suit flopps out KKK...thats what gets me ...happens all to often ....watch the tourney on the tv ....i would never show the ridiculous suck outs nation wide ...bad for bussiness...Rember ...no such thing as TRUE electronic RNG....

Usually when i have a rant .....well actually virtually always, it's because i've played well and done everything in my power to succeed in the hand but by the sheer awful play of my opponent they come out on top. If i can understand my opponents play/move then all's well.... such as being c-raised allin with FD and overs when i have top set and them rivering the flush.... It's not bad play it's just unlucky and part of poker. Getting allin with AA v opponents KK and the river being a K is extremely frustrating but it's not bad play on their part, just unlucky.
The moans happen when for instance someone calls an overbet turn shove with naked flushdraw and hits..... or calls pot bets to river with gutshot and undercards to the board and hits river, or calls pot bets on a draw heavy board with bottom pair and rivers trips etc. A lot of it is to do with hyand reading skills and the total lack of them on our opponents part.... we are wondering how to extract max value as there is not a chance our opponent would be stupid enough to call a 4x raise preflop with 74o out of position and then check-call all the way to the river on a 63KQ board....... The river is the 5 and our flopped set of kings is the nuts right? OMFGWTHBBQ he has 74!!!!! omgomgomg..... how dumb was that play.... etc etc etc lol. We just lost 100bb's and that donk thinks he played the hand great! FML!!!!
Yes yes..... i know....... it's great these people are playing like this because they will lose it all sooner rather than later..... make a note and move on..... Well that's all completely correct and very easy to say.... but in the heat of the moment, when this may be the 3rd time such a thing has happened in the evening, it's all too easy to ask in chat just WHAT The &*^& our opponent was thinking?.....
I never stoop to terrible insults but at times i can be rather Hellmuthesque in my chat when things are going badly. Maybe some people are prone to outbursts more than others and some people wouldn't even recognize they've just been the victim of horrendous play....
People should take chat outbursts with a pinch of salt and just let them get on with it. Maybe look at your play if someone starts shouting and see how what you did might have caused the outburst.... recognize how what you did was such bad play, then improve your game to stop the same thing happening in the future.
Ranting can only be bad for the rantors blood pressure and only good for our opponents game (by telling them how badly they're playing.) I must apologize to any rantees in the past and make myself a promise to try and keep quiet when some donk takes my stack through bad play.
I'm really waffling now so i'll be quiet.
Oh btw....... strawman...... how about posting the hand history?
Good Luck
Moan? It's what poker players do! No idea why.
Someone described them on here recently in a most apposite way - "whinge buckets".
Human psyche I suppose, but all very peculiar.
Thanks Tikay, Very much obliged
It's a very appropriate term!
And I'm alkso disabled, so in my book theres no need for that.
It had nothing to do what we were talking about!!!
So i'm sorry about that.
