flopped a straight beat by full house

flopped a straight beat by full house,  my AA was cracked by pocket 6, and i saw more bad beats in 5 hours poker than i seen on any site i play, you might be thinking whats new ,but this was live play in the tourny at the casino,, i play a lot of live poker and you see bad beats all the time the only reason you see more on line is because the players will out fish you sometimes and you play and see much more hands,, i think most players on sky are new to the game and not played much live ,, so whem there best starting hands loses the chat box is full of what a con its rigged,, so my advice is if you want to enjoy on line poker and not go on tilt when you lose a hand ,, go play a week live in the casino,, bt the way just been knocked out the bounty allin AA  caller from 88 he hit a straight on the river what a con lol

Wow i was about to say if your needing to let frustration out Area 51 is there. Glad i have another Live player on the site who agrees with me that more/just as many do happen live. Its all part of life.

Nice post, although i must say the poker level online is probably stronger than that of Live.

Had the same problem myself at the being of the week AA KK cracked every time I was dealt them but your a big Fav so over time you win with them 70% of the time.... with me the other 30% seems to come all at once lol.

I watch god knows how many hours of TV 'live' poker every week - WPT, Poker Lounge, EPT, The Big Game, Poker Millions etc..etc..etc. The "bad beats" or "suckouts", whatever you want to call them, all appear time and time again. And the players on the receiving end all accept it with dignity. Why on Earth the confused brigade go on about "it only happens online & never live", then resort to abuse and the like, I'll never know.
I've probably watched as much on TV as I've played online and they're exactly the same.

Not another bad beat story ... PLEASE not another bad beat story.  I'm want a campaign for balance!  Let's focus on how good the player with the pocket 6 feels.  He had a HAPPY HAND.  For every person's Bad Beat there is another player's Happy Hand. Why do so few people bring these stories to the forum??
