while playing double your money yesterday i had pocket kings i raised and got called then the flop came down 334 so i went all in and got called. when the cards were turned over the other player had q9 not suited i could not believe he had called with that.then just as i thought i would double up he hit 9 9. i know he is entitled to do this when are sky poker going to sort out some of the muppets that play. this sort of thing puts you of from playing plus it cost me £3.30

That's unlucky Buzzer, that's a real thin one.

What exactly do you suggest Sky Poker should do to "sort this out" if I may ask?

By the way, your pre-flop odds were about 85% - 15%, & Post-Flop you were about 99.3% to win.

On that basis, you win the Post-Flop coup 993 times out of a 1,000, & you'd soon be a millionaire if you could repeat the play 1,000 times. Which, personally, I'd say was a pretty good deal, so I'd want him to call 1,000 times in that spot! I know we all want to win all the time, but I don't mind letting Matey Boy win 7 times in a 1,000 if he wants to keep making that play. It's "cake" & "eat it", really. Let him win a few times, & you can win a lot of times - that's gotta be reasonable, eh?

No worries chap, & it's fully understandable. Win the next 993 of them!

It's been pointed out to me that the odds poast-flop were 99.4%, not 99.3%, so it's even better than I suggested!

Take care man.

The best way to combat this is to do what I & most others do. Make a note on them & then actively seek them out when you want a game. This works particularly well in cash games as I've taken back all the money I've lost on sick outdraws with interest. Plus I find that doing this negates the need for getting annoyed & consequently losing more through tilting.

Good luck at the tables.
