You only say you quit, but after your done some live games, you see, that is so easy to start to play online, you can play whenever you want. In Casino you depend on other players and if the casino is even open. Or is there open space in table. Or do you live in Vegas, in that case you really have no problems to find open casino and table:
badbeats are everywhere, you cant hide from them. but agree there is much badplay and gambling online i just wonder what you gonna do when someone donks you or you have a badbeat at the casino. btw gud luck there
Posted by cobbs666: I QUIT ONLINE im going to the casino.
Good decision ... in casino you will never suffer badbeats: 10% of zeros (roulette), 22 black in a row (roulette) ... Casino is always fair A good period in casino is the best medicine to come back to poker Anyway ... good luck

u must push all in with AA or KK or QQ because if u get a chance to see players flop they can catch some strenge hands and beat u easy so all in and nobody with 5-6 or more low cards call u so dont fish and takethe real lead
good luck at the casino tables but there also u can be easy overtake by river
then a few rounds later i pick up AA v KK bricks on flop and turn and f#$%ing K on the river
Funny u dont tell how u bet this one. Maybe u tried slowplaying AA ond got suckered out. Any how i dont believe calling a raise with KK is donkey call. If it is u cant play many hands
no one good hand for every night ! can't bluff because there was someone who had three times my all-in who call allways and who had allways KJ ! a bad night for me

yea the stakes is one thing but what size are the stacks the guy has with 56 if he is a short stack then bad play but if he has a big stack and if its a 3 way pot or something its not bad i dont think this guy may of had 50 or 100 bb and if ur playing so tight he maybe thought if he calls and hits the flop like he did u are going to stack off all ur chips to him with a big pair he does not say the details but suited conectors are great hands to play in 3 or more way pots ive found that some of the biggest pots i have won are with such cards and before i get a load of people calling me a donk i have seen many pros say the same thing got the same advice from training sites but bring it call me a donk but yea m8 ul i never win with As either
What goes up, must come down and what goes down must come up. If you are playing the best poker u can and are making every effort to improve, suck outs and bad beats are not that hard to take. If on the other hand, you play wild and overly passive/aggressive/ and you're just going through the motions, than bad beats and suck outs become an everyday occurance and your bankroll quickly becomes the victim.

Whine whine whine - want to hear something that makes you feel better - I had 400$ downsing in 25nl cash withing 3 days aprx 20 hours of play. I had won 8 sessions before that started and overall im still up with 11 sessions more than half of what I lost.
You are talking about a tourney here? freeroll? whats the buy in? is it played with br mngement or you put your whole bankroll into it? is it worth whining at all losing 2 hands in one tourney?
I came today 3rd in pokerstars SUNDAY MILLION sattelite - the only problem is 2 first ones got the ticket and I was left with a 12$ - s**t right? Wanna know whats more worse - I WENT ALL IN AJ AND GOT CALLED BY OTHER PLAYER who had same stacksize - he called me with 45 - and there was 44 on flop - BANG 215$ SUNDAY MILLION TICKET GONE!
all im saying is that, sometimes you just have to deal with that s**t! Be over it and try again, that is how we make money and become unbeatable
oh yeah,his 56 was probbably SUITED.
