Hello, in 16 years of playing poker many things happen to you at the tables, I remember an occasion that I managed to match a poker of kings, that was in Party poker, two kings came to my hand, the flop on the table was two kings and an ace, the turn, a queen and the river an ace, of the six players at the time of the river we were only two players and they know that the opponent had pair of aces in his hand, it made my poker of kings go to hell in the all-in

If you play a lot , this shouldn't surprise you . On the long run , you will see hands like these , sometimes you are the one benefited by them , other times you are the victim of bad beats . Of course a runner runner suckout is not good at all , to be 95% or even 99% ahead on the flop , then lose on the river . It sucks , but you have to move to the next hand , to the next tourney and opportunity .....

it's hard to catch something like that in online poker, but in past years it was much easier. I think that the players complaints about bad beats, that were too many and too frequent for each player... changed this thing and now it happens less often.

Recently I played a hand , I had f***ING quads 8s on the flop , I checked , the small stack bet , I 3 bet , now with quads to 3 bet someone would say it's too aggressive .... Yeah for sure . Second heart on the turn , for guts shot straight and potential flush . He bets , leaving very few blinds in his stack another ones calls , I shove , the 2 others call . The mf had two gappers hearts , he bet on the flop with nothing , gambling . On the river he got his ONE OUTER for the straight flush . Lol
It happened in a freeroll but still I had other and , bad beats or crazy hands deep in a tourney , then these hands really hurt . These hands are so crazy , they seem out of reality , but still these players know what they are doing , they bet with almost nothing trying to manipulate pot odds , the RNG . Many who know such tricks , they want to bust you with a bad beat , proving how much as***** tthey are

If you have a pair, often others have also pairs. And if i had Rockets, I also wouldn't fold when i have a Full House after the Fop. My opinion is also: normal Hand, nothing special

every layout is possible if you play many tables and a large number of hands then sooner or later everyone will hit poker and not once or almost impossible layouts with several players at the table at once and I wouldn't score poker sites or software for it because it's just this is what happens in poker...

the worst thing is when you are on the so-called tilt and various odd hands hit in long series, when we have a strong hand and someone has a bit better or hits the river everything, and we lose... such situations can lead to some players crazy...

we in all gambling ways have this kind of stories and bad streaks when you have bad days in row and lose lot of money, no matter is it poker or casino or betting, but its hard to stop after one bad day and to say its enough! we all know how this can finish, but we all love to play every day and to try to fix it!

I can totally relate. I have had quite a few bad beats, my kings running into aces. I don’t think it is set up in the websites or anything. I had it happen at Foxwoods casino playing live. I don’t think it is a conspiracy or anything.
