Good evening dear mobsters, I'm here finishing a game weekend. Quite productive, I was able to quadruple my bankroll, but even so, I lost incredible hands like some I'm going to show you. At least I lost 5 full vs poker today, I do not remember if I shared them all in boom.

Yes i think this is a very bad situation for you. You have very good combination full house and of course you have to play in this hand and for opponent have quads is not good but happen not often, sonthis is bad luck but you have to play same again

What can i say. These hands are very ugly and instead of giving bad beats you take them. Pokerstars remain horrible and this will not change. To get something there you'll have to rent a hacker or to continue playing many hours in every day, to get anothers bad beats or to gain some poor money. I also bother gamblers like that player with A 7 diamonds. Horrible style...

For a few years i lost 4 of Kind in a tourney i had TT he QQ we have both a set on the Flop.I think s**t we have both a big stack and 2 other players are in pot and i will lose. On the turn the T and i say yeah i win a very big pot. And on the river the Q thats was very hard but i lost the Hand against a very friendly and good player.So when i not win so my chips goes to a good player.Its not so hard as i lost my chips vs a donk
it seems to me that you had a very productive weekend in terms of profit .... and then that in the last words you regret that I could not win again ... then if you look around your other distributions you should not be dejected .... but you can not always drive yourself know ... good luck with the game

TT vs 22 - I was putting the Player 2 (the small blind) on A2 or AT since s/he flatted your reraise on the flop... 66 vs 77 - The Player 6 limping preflop... I smelled something fishy. AK vs QJo, 54s - Some players play any suited card (in position)! AA vs A7s - Super nasty runner runner flush. So disgusting.

Well, they are hands that one hurts to lose at the moment, but as I generally did well, one remembers them as anecdotes. I think I played them well and that's what matters, beyond result. I know that in the long run, playing like this, I will do well. It is normal to suffer these badbeats or coolers, but I never thought that some were so followed. I will keep you informed if I can continue to increase the bank

I have to say you were very unlucky. How many times can someone do a full house, running on four of a kind The good thing though is that you managed to get some money from the tournament. Better luck next time

of course write here more about your ups and of course falls .... and then there is one friend so he writes only when he wins something in tournaments ... we all know who I'm talking about, boys and girls ..... interesting not only the game of professional and ordinary people

Yeah, ligador37, you didn't do anything particularly bad. Even the greatest poker player cannot avoid becoming the victim of bad luck. That's just inevitable in the long run. Good luck with your next session.

Turning your bankroll into four times your starting balance is an awesome results and you should be pride of it. Bad beat are part of the games and am sure that inside that pokersessoin there have been hands you won starting as underdog but for some reason our brain only remember the ones from which we suffered a loss.
Stick to your poker game and let the bad beats flow out of your mind and don't let them influence your game style.

Ligador37 I can tell you that you have achieved great success and you can freely say that you had a good game and everything else is not important What happened to you would never happen if you played live poker or some big tournament so you can count that this has not happened

Congrats and keep it up
Sure, that I have clear. I know it's normal that once you have those bad beats, it's a matter of statistics. There are so many hands that one plays a day that is normal, and even not bother so much for having suffered, partly because I could take advantage of other hands that went well, and I got good profits, and because also, as I lost those hands I also won others that I could have easily lost. At the beginning of the topic, I published a hand of Omaha where it clearly shows that I was lucky.

To see also that I count the wins, here I leave a couple of hands yesterday, which went well. Yesterday I played cash, that's why there is no MTT or SIT hand

KJo vs ?? - You seemed to know the playing tendency of the Player 3 very well. TT vs 44 - Set over set! I guess the player 5 put you on QJ, T9, Tx, or something. AQs vs AKo - Well played.

Hello Tony, I leave this hand for you to analyze. The ides is that you try to decipher what hand the villain takes before the final result. Try to put it in ranges, and see if the end surprises you. https://www.boomplayer.com/27682154_DC49E564AF
Sometimes I do not understand what these people really play.
