    You got u/l - getting a monster on the button is either great or the Devil; everyone thinks you're at it, so, most people would call with mid-suited connectors (imho), disguised and implied odds massive.

    ...then a lot of people aren't going away with an u/d straight draw (8 cards to hit over two streets).  A call to your 400 suggest a big draw. Seeing a J would set alarm bells.  Not sure if you had to go broke over this. Screams of 10s or he's hit his straight.  On the flip-side, v.hard to chuck AA.

    Don't think there's anything you can do. It's just poker - one of those things?! Happened to me on full tilt and poker stars in equal and numerous occassions. Smile and carry on and you'll get your share of luck/flops in the long run.

    Cheers

    you would want this call al lday long but it's not like he didn't have outs, just that one of them came this time

    It's poker, it will happen, it hurts but you brush off and moveon. Have you never hit your out when your all in on a draw? We all have been there on both sides of the coin but we only ever remember the ones that go against us.

    He's playing to try and break a big hand, thats why he's calling with 89 - his up and down draw was as close to it as he's going to get without actually flopping the nuts

    i know what your saying mate but i would never put my tourny on the line 5 hands in calling an allin on a draw he was out 10 minutes later there are so many bad players on here give bad beats then someone else takes them out a few hands later it used to be about poker now its all about getting lucky to avoid a bad beat , the standard of play on this site is terrible i know a good player will always come out on top in the long run but there seems to be a lot of players getting rewarded for bad play

    I understand your point mate,there is a high standard of good players at the top level but also a very poor standard in alot of the games that are run of the mill.Hard to find a level at reasonable stakes to have a proper game of poker.dav

    There is TOO much of this....


    i know where you at,

    SICK of it...and if anyone else says pot odds, or just a bad beat....zzzzzzz.....

    its funny,because you d have thought the more u play the less it would happen......WRONG ....

    i got to the stage where i put a piece of paper in front of the screen,just so i could nt see the river...

    even 95% ers seem to be 50 /50

    The more you play WELL the more it will happen. Not because it's fixed but because you can only suffer a bad beat if you've got all the money in when AHEAD.

    The better you are the more often you will put yourself in a possition to be outdrawn rather than do the outdrawing.
