You woulda won this hand lol. A`s and K`s beats A`s and Q`s.
but i hear what your saying i seem to have no chance of winning at FT everytime i get a good hand i lose
had AJ suited flop JJA guy bets i shove he turns AK turn was K river was K Had AQ hit 2pair on the flop AQ10 guy bets big i shoved with short stack. he called he turns 9 3 i thought WTF the the turn came down J River was a 8.
no matter what i get it gets beat by either runner runner or the river sooo annoying
Been there so many times I've lost count. I call that shell shock and when I'm on a downswing doesn't seem to matter what i'm holding I get beat and sometimes really badly by someone shoving with junk. Not just in FR's either...when it starts affecting my bankroll I back off for awhile. It's all the donks loling me cause they cracked my hand. There are people out there who spend all there time trying to donk good players... some make it... some don't. It's these people that give this game a bad rap. They are trying to prove this game is pure luck and has nothing to do with skill. We all know what happens when luck runs out...fortunatly they don't.

lost 50% in 15 min maybe u need to improve your bankroll management. bad beats will happen to every one. downswings are part of poker but bankroll management takes care of this variance and makes poker profitable in long term

Personally i think the poker sites set it up this way to make the donkeys feel like there good players and then they will spend more time and money on these sites.Dont let it get u down keep your head up and keep grinding.

I'm sorry for you, to lose 50% of your bankroll in just 15 minutes is bad. On what limits are you playing and what type of game are you playing(cash games, SNG)? In the same time i also have to agree with Supernoob, you should apply a more strictly bankroll management. For example on each session i only allow to lose max 2 buy ins, after that i don't reaload and i usually take a day or two break before starting playing again on that poker platforms. If you play SNG you could apply the same rule, if you get knocked out after 2 SNGs stop playing. I admit that it's very easy to get tilted after these kind of bad beats but keep in mind that the most important rule od the poker is bankroll management! I advice to take a day or two pause from poker and i'm sure you'll start making money again after that. Good luck at the tables!

So you guys think that he really lost with all those monster hands against hands which he had crushed in only 10 small minutes...??? Cmon guys it's like he's saying that he got a straight flush in 2 consecutive hands... lol

It sucks, but if you cant handle variance play bingo, its rude but so true, Misses Variance is a stinking bitch but never ever tell her that or she even strike you more, just be nice to her and smile and play ur next game....

You are telling that you got these hands in 10 to 15 minutes ??? I don`t even get so much monster hands during a whole evening. So I am a little bit confused

what a rip off in 15 min....lost 50% in 10 minutes... so which one was it? id have to say this was a whole day of losing in my oppinion if not u would atleast have the time straight!
im not a math guy at all but for u too lose AA-KK, KK-QQ, QQ-33, 1010-99 in that shorta time period? sounds bogus
pretty sure the probability of gettin a pocket pair is 1/220 with 1326 differnt starting hand possibilitys i HIGHLY doubt this all happend in 10? or 15? minutes ( when u make your mind up) unless of course your playing 100 tables or so at the same time....im not sayin this aint possible... just sayin this DID NOT happen!
Took a pounding one evening playin 2 SnG's and a cash table at the same time. Lost all my profit from the night before. It can happen if one is multi tabling. After that night I went to 2 tables and stuck to it. As with Variance and bankroll management, I also set a stop loss limit. If I hit that I'm gone!

thats not unusal at all. most of you who dont believe it, probably play 1 or 2 tables. i play 4-6 sometimes 8 tables...things like that happened "several" times to me (within 10mins of play). that also can happen if you only play 2 tables...losing half your bankroll sometimes can be so quick.

I have to agree. I find it very hard to believe he got all those great cards in 15 minutes and lost them all. I'm not even that stupid to believe this. Hand history says it all, notice how that wasn't posted...............

i agree to as stated in my above post...losing a bankroll is easy..bad beats are easy..but getting that many pocket pairs and someone else having a lower pair and beat you that many times? suicicides the only way outta that mess

Those are all crappy beats, but definitely agree, you gotta be more careful with your roll. If you play at too high of stakes you will lose it all, even if you're the best player on earth.
Poker is a game of variance, you must protect yourself from it, or end up losing it all every time.

I agree, those bad beats are here to "beat" you. Take one thing for certain, the pair situations you have described above will not happen as often as you describe in live tourneys. Things can only get better - have some faith and you will pull through.........
not with all these hands you are saying you had though.
