sick of ridiculous calls being succesfull

zammo19720

i can't believe the week i've had on this site, where my  kk is beaten by a 10 5 with a 2 pair ridiculous call by a shameful player
my AK being beaten by an all in 8 2 suited  to a straight
can it possibly more ridiculous on this site, i think i'll stick to another site where real poker is played.

EDIT : on a sidenote I could write LMAO but not LMF AO, how strange lol

good idea son, go to pokerstars where most players at any decent level 20-table and play tight as hell, with a VPIP of -1% and see if you cann make money as easy from them.

AK isnt a made hand why are you moaning..it happens, all part of the game. You cant win or hope your hands hold up all the time!!

Like Dreamer said, it's all part of the game.
there will always be those occasions when a decent hand gets called & beaten by trash, but then that's the 'unfortunate' nature of gambling.

Best thing to do, make a note on their profile & next time chances are your hand will hold up (if you get it in good).

Other than that, just try & forget the bad beats. they suck, but there's naff all you can do about it.

Its a bit like at football where you remember every penalty and every decision the ref gives against you, but forget the ones that go in your favour.

Just keep playing solidly and in the long term believe it or not you will be successful.

There are a lot of players on here that are exceptionally poor, particularly at the very micro-stakes. I don't see why you would want to go on a site with tougher players, who can use software like Holdem Manager, which puts you at a disadvantage straight away if you don't have it.

I agree. When I have AK or KK, I don't like getting called by weaker hands. I only like getting called by AA. That's why I play the game. You only ever get outdrawn on Sky Poker.

Yesterday morning on Stars I was outdrawn by 96 when holding KK, in the final of a heads-up, winner-takes-all tournament. Not a pleasant experience... I blame Sky Poker's software for that too.

I also think you should be listening to your own advise.

you commented on another thread about someone who was in the same situation as you are now and you said, and i quote. 

"we've all had those kinda beats here on sky and other places mate its just unlucky dust urself and try again."

It happens to me all the time mate! sick of it! and people say it evens itself out but it hasnt for me yet?? im alway going out of tournaments with hands like this, not so much sit & go's tho?? dunno why that is?

I was playing last thursday and had A10 which i never like playing anyway lol so raised it 600 into blinds of 100 & 200 guy with no chips involved so far called, 10 8 6 on th flop, raise, got called, 2 on the turn, raised again, got called, 3 on the river i checked and he bet which i called, he had 9 7!! flopped a straight!!! i was sick, called 600 pre flop with 9 7
