hello
first i´m sorry my english is broken! I cann´t understand so many players. I play the leaderboard on pokerstars ans so many players from russian and co go all-in pre-flop with a starthand 4 7.... 3 9..... or some other. whats that? an pokerstars give them a babysitting and so much time i loose with KK AA or a other great hand. how is this possible? if i like to go all-in with 3 9o pre-flop....... i think it´s better to go play bingo. they killed my believe to play poker. one minutes ago:
My card A Qs preflop. i´m on the button, all other players checket, i raise 4BB and all 4 player go all-in with a unbelieveble card. 7 2 o. J 4 o. 8 3 o. and Q 4 o.
Who win the game???? 8 3 with a full-house. thats verry verry bad whats that???? POKER???? or poker on pokerstars for babysitting

I hear ya my friend...!
I have one word: A$$HOLES
70% of them aren't even BankrollMob members...
They are just a bunch of facebook freerolling flea-bitten cockroaches......and many of them have 2 or more accounts. They play like that, lose, then move to their next account and do it again hoping to hit big and win...
70% of the money won in those tourneys goes to them flea bags...

If you want to keep your faith in poker you'd better stop playing freerolls. Those guys are gamblers who try to hit their first hand and hope to win a big pot. If they win they have a huge stack from the beginning and they can play the bigstack bully.
If they lose well they try again with another account and do the same thing. They know that there are other players who try the same thing so there are always players who go all in on their first hand no mather what cards they have.
AA and KK are very strong hands but they lose strength if you have 5 players who go all in.
One thing we need to understand to avoid these situations is the fact that no matter how great your hand is, the more player in the hand, the less chances you have to win the hand. But if you do win the hand, you also gain a lot more chips.
Play poker live with big buy-ins, and you will have a real poker game People still make donk moves live, but they rarely end up in a showdown.

to be honest you really do want someone to call you when u have AA or KK don't you? yeah sh1t happens, sometimes very often, but really i would agree to have a constant caller with 72 off when i have AA...doesn't matter how many times i lose in the end i know it's a mightily +EV situation...

Agree with pochui here. The fact that it annoys you is that you were expecting to win the hand and in fact you would be disappointed if the donk didn't call. We all feel your pain mate... yesterday it was a Austrian actually that crushed my KK with 96os. I take comfort in knowing that they win more hands than they have brain cells.. have to be sympathetic with lobotomy patients u see

have to remember this ... a post of pochui thats really dealing with poker...
I thought he was just here to make funny posts and that he does know nothing about poker
to the topic ... the first 5 hands in a freeroll is bingo play even if you have monster-starting hands
allin versus 4 or more players is always bingo play

today i play my first real chash game. and.... thats right what you tell me. I play a MTT with a buy-in of just 5 Dollar.
Everybody play a other systhem and all-in i see it just sometimes if somerwhere have a great hand. KK is a great hand but not everybody go pre-flop all in. they look first the flop. shoe the flop 3 cards without a A than i see a all-in.
