    Wish people would call me with 3 6 off suit when I have Aces! It seems when I have aces every one else folds. I know its a sickener when they get beat by idiots but they will be the losers in the end!

    its good to see you are taking a break,its the best way to keep the white coats away.there will always be the luckers whos calls begger belief.over the years i have found myself going to t.k with steam coming from my ears asking why my aces have been cracked 6 times on the trot,why my winning hand has been cracked on river 9 out of 10 times etc etc etc.all we can do is look at our bankroll over a year and if you are up then pat yourself on the back and take some pleasure in the fact that your winnings have come from the very same person that cracked your aces with 3 6 off   regards brett

    just to add a thought though.....


    people complain somewhere is rigged.  then they keep playing there.
    if you really think its rigged why would you?  that is plain stupidity

    + 1  As ive said many times look at the regular high stakes cash players, there on here everynight making money Why? Because they make money and can deal with the beats as much as it hurts at the time. The sites not rigged it happens, would a massive organisation like Sky risk there reputation rigging this site? I think not, so if your not happy with it there's plenty more you can sign up with.

    Bad beats will always happen whether it is live play or online. Bad beats always stand out when you are the loser as inevitibly that is when you have shoved. what most people conveniently forget are all the times they have hit their miracle cards.
    The only way to assess this would be to religously record the outcome of say 10,000 hands and you will probably find that bad beats will probably equal miracle cards.
    In all random selections there will appear natural bias for short periods of time where the odds of probability go off of the scale in in order to adjust back to the true odds. for example the odds say that your chances of a pocket pair are16:1, but how many times do we sit there hand after hand with nothing and then hit pocket pairs twice on the trot (true odds 16:1, probability odds 16x16:1).
    I am not saying that your caller was aware of this but there is always the off chance that he picked up on a bias and was trying for an informed steal.
    Highly unlikely i know, but think, how many times have we all had a gut feeling and not acted on it and would have ended up with a mega disguised hand only to think what if.

    Spornybol,

    5-6 years ago I went for my train drivers job.  The tests I had to do were pretty rigorous before I got the job.  One of the tests was a reaction test where basically you sit in front of a screen, you have different coloured buttons in front of you, a left and right pedal and some earphones on.  noises in ur ears meant you had to press a certain pedal and colours flashed on the screen and you had to press the appropriate button.

    The test is designed to `run away with you`, ie, you cannot keep up.  It is what you do when you cant keep up that could be the difference between getting the job and not.  We were told b4 the test, if you cant keep up, then stop.  Sit back for a few seconds and start again when you have composed yourself.  Do not chase the colours, as this will lead to getting more wrong.  I was sitting next to someone who was pressing these buttons like a madman.  I sat back and composed myself when things got out of control, but was thinking, omg the guy next to me is superman, there is no way I will get this job.

    Turns out he failed the test and did not get offered a job as he did not take a break and chased the colours.  I composed myself and got back into the stride without chasing.

    I know this may be an obscure analogy, however, I do think it lends itself to poker in this situation.

    I just need to adhere to it myself from time to time lol

    lmao Omaha-oneyO get stuffed!!!!! hahaha

    Honest if I believed it was possible to make summat like this up - I would never believe you.

    Duno about post of the week - how about poster of the week. Takes bonkers to a new level. The new Hartshorn, - start getting genuinely upset about your bad beats, and type in a Yorkshire accent, and u'd get my vote.

    I'd love to see the camera on sornybol as he reads that! - will be doing his Annie Duke impression!!! - brilliant, again! lol
