It happens, I had two hands KK and AA won the first when someone went all in with JJ, then lost my stack when someone went all in with 72s against my AA and caught a 10high straight draw ... wasnt to impressed with this so decided to leave for a while.

understand..played yesterday and went all in with trip J's on the turn and got a caller with nothing but gutshot str8 and hit the 8 on the river to win. Really pisses you off when this happens but need to remember that in the end you will win more often than not and take all their money.

And he has a 9 % chance to take that one, so 1 out of 10 times just that will happen, so in the end just look at your bank roll, if it grows you shouldn't complain since the odds seems to work out anyway. And if you don't have the bankroll to buy in again after a bad loss you should just suit yourself since its your fault for not treating your bank roll correctly.

It only takes one hand for me to go on tilt, I've learnt now to sit out for a bit, have a cup of tea and a cig, then get back to it. If I dont do this then I pretty much go downhill, fast. It definitly improved my bankroll drastically.
