I was at a table yesterday and got dealt a nut flush on the river which just happened to give an opponent 4 king's?? WTF?? It seems every time I do get a decent hand playing with real cash, i get the crap kicked out of me?? I have been thru a lot of free bankrolls and keep losing on big hands that in my opinion are really hard to beat, yet beat I get?? I play a lot of play money and live poker games and do quite well!! Which leads me to the question, are these free money accounts getting beat up on purpose just to get you ticked enough to put in some of your own money or is it that I just cannot play online for real money?? Confused, Mike

hmmmm,,,, i dnt think u can play online poker very well @ all cause when theres possiblitys of your hand gettin beaten you have 2 take in2 account how your apponent is playing and loads of other aspects 2, iv'e built my free bankrolls and cashed out but find i win most @ AP when my stats are pretty gd, youv'e just got 2 find the site that suits ur style of play best i reckon and good luck in the future!

Posted by xpok3rkingx: why would you bet a flush if there were 3 kings on the flop????????????????????????
hit the nail on the head right there.if the board pairs up you always in realy big trouble.so which player made the mistake mr 4 kind or mr flush.think the problem was that you only saw your hand as being the best,common mistake,best to check next time,see how they act on river.online is a tuff game.try running a home game once a week.to much online poker does ya head in.

come on ,with a paired board you never want to hit a flush,you want to be sure that you have him beat when he raises you or moves all in,if you would have lost with a full house to quads with set over set ,i might call it a bad beat.
but daaaaaaaaaaaaaaamn i just got kicked out of a tournwey with a set vs a flopped flush draw!!!!!!!! i hate it when that happens
