I am so pissed, poker is starting to be more and more a bitch for me it's just crap, even if you are the best pokerplayer, there will still be fuking gaylords who don't understand the meaning of a reraise pre flop and still call and get what they do not deserve it happened several times and it just happaned again and I abused him badly, and I still do not regret it MTT 180 players, 17 players left and he raises with his 3 3 10x the big blind, now, I have A A and I reraise him 5 times, we both are big stacks, and he calls and I was happy about it, my next move would be an all in anyway, he is first he puts me all in and I call and he shows his set, cmon please be real fuking gaylord dont need to play good, they just need to play crap and idiotic and they will win

Simply go all in before the flop with your aces. You don't mind if you get called. And this is the only language the donks understand. And winning the 10BB bet and the blinds and antes will bild up your stack.

I raised 50x the BB, I think that is enough for him to get the idea he is up against a better hand than his 3 3

This was a tourney. One of the big stacks does not need a huge hand to put pressure on the smaller stacks. It is the threat of the huge stack that counts. He can take a flip and survive it he should lose. A small stack will be out if he loses.

haha this is really a joke, didn't play since that tournament and decided to play the 5k guaranteed, lost my connection and came in 5min lait, just in time for my K K not to be folded in the small blind, it was a splitt second or it would be folded, maybe I was better of being slow and let it fold it
there was a raise in middle position, 4x the B B, and I make it 30x the BB, and the BB instantly pushes all in, first raiser folds and I call offcourse, he shows me pocket 6 and gets his set on the turn, haha can some1 please tell me why I should not stop playing poker? this is just too sick

This alway happens to me and i first decided to take a break from online poker i lost so much money against donks man i can tell you that this freaks me out but yo have no chance to get rid of them.But mathematically you will win in long sight against these players.
take a break come back and take their money.I often do this then after the break you are cooled down and more focused.

Listen to my advice. STOP PLAYING from friday afternoon till monday early morning. Most of the fishes are playing during weekends and poker rooms see that as opportunity to make more money. If you play poker full time this is the best time to take a rest, go out with your girlfriend, wife. Family will appreciate it as well as your friends and it will help you gain more control over your play during week.

Offcourse dont stop playing in the weekend!!!! Its fishy time then, so you must play, dont be afraid for some badbeats, they happen. But dont stop playing cos there are too much donks. The more donks the better

You missed the point referring only to part of my statement. Combined with this it gets a whole new meaning.
and poker rooms see that as opportunity to make more money
If you want to play against fishes there are fishes during week too, not in weekend numbers but still enough and bad beats are less often. I have been practicing this for 2 weekends, one whole week, and I did not have a losing session. Without some great cards, but when I hit most of the time it stays that way, actually numbers are still in big negative when it comes to pockets. 7-2off, 9-3off are my most common cards and I got them around 10 times more often than any 1st group pockets. (note, not a 1,000,000 hand example )

What the hell are you crying over? You are rather stupid my friend, suck outs do happen - ALL THE TIME. You should be glad that people are calling you with weaker hands than yours even though they luck out, you have the higher odds. And if you don't agree on this you should cease playing poker.
You can't get the nuts all the time, even when you're favorable to win you'll loose time to time.
If you let your emotions get the best of you due to something that is invetibale (which is rather illogical) you will probaly go tilt.

Well been there done that... I´ve just stopped playing poker for 4-5 moths cause of all the bad beats and all the donks you run into when playing alot of poker, I lost all of my bankroll ($500) in 2 days, took me 3-4 months to build it up by free rolling and low stakes cash games, some will say that´s nothing, well for me it is, and I got so pissed off I did quit playing poker for a while, and now I´m back with a fresh set of minds and ready to play poker again...
