Trie QQ vs T6o on a 5JT flop all in, turn 6. I get those beats all the time too. My solution is to leave the table when your up for instance 2$ on a 10NL table. This is not the right thing to do according to most poker books but it insures you that you keep the winnings for that session. It works for me becouse i get those bad beats too often after i make a big win.

Hey Guys
this is very interesting. I've been playing for six months and havent done too well at all until recently. I have become patient and I watch my position on the table, folding all but the best cards in early and middle positions. I allow myself one speccy hand per every 10 hands (one per round) or so,I might play a 6 8 offsuit just to mix it up and have fun but will fold immediately if I don't connect with flop. Pokerstars is very strange. I won't win at all but then all of a sudden I will come in the money in every tourney as if the cards all of a sudden favour me and me only. So I had one good winning streak in 6 months. I have seen that happen to others as well, it's some kind of spooky favouritism that I can't explain. I do really well on Titan and CD poker, 888 is ok as well but the old school software annoys me. If anyone else has experienced a similar thing pease tell us. Cheers DJ
