had AA IN A TOURNAMENT at carbon the blinds were 1000-2000 preflop i raise 2x with 25k guy reraises on button to 8.5k i 4 bet all in he calls he had 29k in chips to my 24 k blanks come on flop he hits his 2 on turn and 7 on river to beat me. What do these iddiots think when they play these hands 5 dollar buy in that would of dbled me up and been chip leader with 25 to go to the money he had 29k in chips and went all in witih 72 and hits runner runner for 2 pair to beat my aces
Those idiots are the ones that possible for us to play for free, it does sting when they hit though.
I have to agree. But, I doubt that is any consolation.Quote:

He now drives a porsche, is planning his vacation in Aruba, has made a down payment on a swell house in the suburbs of the city he lives in and has plenty of spending money for nights on the town and fine dining. All because he caught on to how things work in online poker.
There is no justification to this play by him and even worse the site rewards him to keep him playing on there site LMFAO WOWQuote:

These sites are in it to make max profit not to be fair with odds and suchQuote:

it does hurt bad - but i see this alot- someone bluffs at a stack that is very vulnerable to the bubble and feels committed to it when the 4-bet comes down - usually they lose but once in a while they hit and makes everyone feel that it is rigged - which it isnt - even a 33% chance will hit 3 out of 10 times this is one reason why i like to just go AI at this point of a tourney - blinds are high enough that stealing is profitable with minor risk
it hurts but once you start playing thousands and thousands of hands a day the sting of bad beats doesnt really hurt anymore
Home game I used to play, there was a very very terrible just plain bad player. Made crazy plays all day long. One out of three sessions, he won all the money at the table though - overall he lost lots of money, but if you only played at our game once and saw him win you would feel the same way about this 72 guy. Variance makes the game seem unfair - but I assure you if that player consistently goes all in preflop with 72 he is a losing player. If players like that never won, they wouldn't play poker and you would have a harder time winning against all the good players that are left. Winning players have a big enough BR and patience to handle a plethora of these donkouts until luck gets on their side.
Sweet jesus that is horrible. Ran into the same type of situation last week in a $11 SNG on Carbon. Guy pushes preflop with 82off, I insta-call (obviously) with KK. Flop comes 229. Turn is another blank. Rivers QUADS. Almost threw my laptop across the room.
well you're spelling isn't much better than your pre-flop raising habits... aces get cracked almost half the time.... stop donking and you might get something in your "money won" category here on PokerOwned
i figure that the sites are, like expressed already, trying to keep these players around to build their fees collected. i thought that rewarding stupid was just standard operating procedure. then i realized that that worked both ways. if a 'weaker player' is favored, then that must mean that i am considered a 'better player'. right? because i kept better starting cards. but then everything changed and the 7/2 offsuit won. so who is worse - him for challenging my aces, or myself for depending on them to win? or, in other words: round and round and round we go, and where we stop no one knows. I'M SO CONFUSED. :confused::confused::(
Is it irony that the OP misspelled "idiots" while complaining about idiots?
Starting to REALLY H8 AA, AK... lost w/ these hands 4 or 5 times this week.... that said I donled off all of my good tourney runs this week! quite embarassing! Well, I'll just have to try and pay closer attention and b tighter with my raises and reads! all in all... I feel my Online poker skills have improved quite a bit, I am enjoying myself and it gives me something to do while i'm job searching....
Well, donked away another lead after holding it most of the BCP PO tourney... finished 4th tho, at least I kept myself from playing those middle suited coneectors (mostly) now for some TF2 to work off some adrenaline...
stop spreading rumors - the sites are NOT rigged to keep players around and build their fees - its such an outrageous but often spoken of claim and it needs to end nowQuote:

Well back to donkin' off tourneys! playing to wide a range and being to optimistic with single high pairs w/ lousy kici\kerz.... need to buckle down n get sum more win's under my belt...
I some times just go complete bonkers and donk hard like everyone.
yeah that hurts no doubt, take it like a man and move on though, make sure you make notes of that player, you might see him again and get a little payback hopefullyQuote:

Shrug it off. It was the right play at the wrong time.
There are so many of those idiots and then think they are so good after winning the pot it's a joke.
people don't play cards so much as they try to bingo lotto whatever you prefer to call it I've had aces cracked by so many idiot calls 45off 23off or anything else its not so much getting beat its when they decide to laugh about it afterwards that makes it so bad saying stuff like see your aa ain't worth $hit or anything to that effect u just have to play on n try not to tilt
