I'd call him the donald trump of poker. does what ever he can to ajust bad things in a way he likes, blames everyone but himself and refuses advice and tips he doesn't like.
Regarding the whole flip-turned-87%'er, @Tikay10 and @MattBates are correct.
However, there is a side-plot, here. Not all flip losses are equal. For one, the specifics of a lost hand can have an impact in future play.
I can't remember who said or wrote it, but there is definitely truth in this probably mis-remembered quote...
It's not how you played the hand where you were unlucky, but how you play the following hand.
It doesn't even have to be an unlucky loss, it works it changing it to...
It's not how you played the big losing hand....
Mindset is a much underrated factor in the analysis of, almost all, forms of competition.
In his fascinating Book of Poker Tells, Mike Caro suggests that poker games are in a constant state of flux. He tells of an experiment carried out (now some time ago) in America which explains the concept well.
Is anyone familiar with this? You may have a better recollection of the specifics than I do.
I agree, when you constantly have 10bb or less there is a big impact on losing an all in.
Technically, you are correct, again, though I was trying to take this discussion in a (far) less literal direction.
Apologies as this was on another site I had JJ v KJ of hearts v KK AIP after the turn 2 hearts on the board no jack, so the only card that could help was the jack bingo jack on the river. If there are odds for it to happen it can happen, no I don't play that site 24 hours a day as a favoured player as I still get bad beats on their as I do on all the sites I play. I have had some horrendous bad beats on Sky just as I have given them out I win a small amount of money each year which is commensurate with my knowledge of poker and the more I learn the luckier I get.
I will wish, each and everyone (a few, through gritted teeth) health, wealth and happiness in 2021.
Now then, 'aggro' Neil & Tony. At least, you two scribe with Eloquence
But, all I expect, to hear is, variance, bad luck, downswing, et al. That, my friends, is the easiest, 'one size fits all' put down, that's the antidote, to all angst, easy.

Merry Christmas! The majority of the issues you have isn't down to variance, it is down to you playing hands badly but you ignore whenever anyone mentions this and only show selected hands.
When I posted, at 06.30 am, one, found one, asking a Rhetorical Question!
what, would it take? for the two poker legends, mentioned above, to possibly raise an eyebrow?
Well,having posed, that Rhetorical question, (06.30) marched boldly, into the next ยฃ5.50 bounty hunter, an hour deep, with five left, we get this misterpj (naturally small stack!) flops two pair,with suited Qd2d from the big blind Player A (medium stack) flops two pair, with suited Kh2h from the small blind (nice work) Player B the grande stack, flops a pair of KK 7 kicker, on a 2 Q K rainbow board Three players, All in, on the flop, FT. Hand Equities 70% KK 22 14% QQ 22.. 10% pair of KK.. Guess, how the (big stack) 10% chance, got there? Bit of your, turn river runner runner 7 7 for the BOAT
I propose a forum poll Eyebrow raised YES Eyebrow not even a Twitch NO
You mean, like this Bev? Note, the absence of comment, on 90 % good with a set ยฃ5.50 bounty hunter, and the big stack, taking a huge 3 way,with 10% hand equity into two players, with flopped two pair, turn river runner runner 7 7 ยฃ5.50 bounty hunter
But, I can Reraise that, sat next to a Phenom, on my left, Phenoms take a ยฃ50 roll, to ยฃ10,000 in less than a year, and, not surprising ๐๐
All the betting, completed on the turn. One player, 78% hand equity, tuther player 22% hand equity I stick with, Phil Hellmuth, 'all I ever want to do, is get my money in, best, way best' See, thing is, in some quarters, of six handed no limit hold em poker, that, is considered, SKILL ๐
How dare my opponents realise their equity?! I am entitled to 100% of the pot at any point in the hand when my equity breaches the 55% mark and that's that. Anyone who disagrees is statistically challenged.
Happy To Oblige And, ho ho ho, a normal snap shot, from just 4 mtts today, hands posted, cough cough
But, I will Reraise All In, again
How about, another Bounty Hunter How about, a pocket pair How about turn the Big Boat, fullhouse How about, 85% good, huge hand, (relevant) All betting, done after the turn, pre River And how about, a variaRinse river 15% hand equity take down
Misterpj, do you understand that if you are 90% favourite and 10% likely to lose, that on 1 in 10 times you will lose. I get that when you lose a hand, it feels like that moment is 100% of the time, but it is not. But what annoys me most of all is that most of the "bad beats" you post aren't even bad beats. A 1 in ten chance is not even a bad beat, its just life, it happens everyday, all the time, to everyone, it 1 in 10. A bad beat is only a 1 in 20+ chance, get over it.

The content is interesting and shows different hand scenarios from which everyone can learn.
Keep it up I am sure that it is not just complaining on your part.
