    Better spelling and punctuation - and correct use of capital letters - would equal better luck on the poker tables ;)

    I think grimstar sums it all up perfectly, it's character building. I bet chris ferguson and phil ivey an co have had their fair share of bad beats and look at them! Top point made by grimstar! ;)

    HEY...I LIVE IN WALES!

    anyway,a bad beat bonus of some kind would be cool but i get bad beats on this site just as much as any other.

    man,  USE FULL STOPS!!!, my ace flush was beat by a strait flush once, my worst bad beat, terrable.

    playert24 states that skypoker is the best poker site in england, and not necessarily in the uk, and he is quite correct to do so.

    He has obviously got wind of the new poker site haggis mcpoker.com which is only available north of the border and has been designed to ensure there are no bad beats, out draws etc, and therefore no area 51...

    A few points here on a serious note,

    Haggis poker is run from two mountains in Scotland where the left-handed haggis don't see much of the right-handed haggis for obvious reasons and therefore the site is a little confusing for non-scottish residents. They did try to hold a meeting once on the left-handed mountain but all the right-handed haggis kept falling over and it had to be abandoned. My advice is stay away.

    For technical buffs the left-handed mountain also known as the clockwise mountain and the right-handed mountain as the anti-clockwise mountain.

    Most sites have at sometime or other had a bad beat jackpot of one sort or another. The general rule was that you had to have quads (8's or higher) beaten. It rarely paid out. I think the biggest was on Party in it's heyday, before the US ban.

    The thing about bad beats, a bad term in my opinion, is that everyone is going to get them. The shouts about bad beats come generally from all-in situations and the mathematics say that you will bump into a dominated hand winning about once in every 4 showdown hands. I walked into at least three of these 'bad beats' last night in the course of a tournament. But, I gave out about 6. The solution is to either avoid the all-in situation wherever possible or make sure you have your opponent covered with your stack. Failing that prayer helps.
