Anyone Support a Dedicated "No Bad-Beats Day?"

There are some Bad Beats and at times people DO run like a Lada with 80,000 miles on the clock. That aside, because all of the bad-beats posted do not end up in Area 51, recent times have seen a surge of people commenting and complaining about the regularity of people posting them.

Would a "No Bad-Beats Day" be a fresh and contemporary idea?

If so, can people suggest a date for a "National No Bad-Beats Day" maybe.

Anyone posting a Bad Beat on the day would not be banned or anything harsh like that, but they could be forced to play every freeroll for a week or something as a punishment.

    I dont think I have ever complained about a bad beat because I realise that to do well in any MTT you have to win a few races from behind! So why would I want to complain about it when I lose when I go in ahead? It also makes me laugh when people complain about people who make bad call and get lucky! Long may people make bad calls against me I will take the odd bad beat if people are willing to go in light!

    You'll do for me.

    And they are all the same! It's as bad in Live Poker, during breaks.

    "And the flop came...".

    "so I raised it up...". 

    "And guess what he called me with?"

    "You'll never guess what the river was?"

    Eyes have glazed over by now, I'm emitting every known body-language sign to say "I gotta go" & on they drone. Sometimes you go to walk away, as if to rush to the loo, & they grab your arm -  "I'm not finished yet". Err, you are mate.

    It's a very peculiar thing, & I don't think anyone quite understands why folks so love to tell them. I do know that nobody likes to hear them. Sadly, we have no choice.

    Perfect anwser. let's face it we dont boast about the fact we busted ace's with K2 off suit so dont moan when your aces get busted by K2 off suit. swings and round abouts.

    I spotted these two Advertisements in town and I became instantly suspicious that they were right next to each other.



    Could the "Random Advertisement Generator" be rigged too?

    Do I win £5?

    could i possibly suggest a compromise in that no bad beats be allowed on any day that ends in a y. i'm sure that gives those OTHER people a chance!
