Just think about the ppl who play that site, if you cant fold or if you swim with the donks, guess what your gonna get a BB. 2X the amount of ppl = 2X bad beats X player type etc Also you will find that are more royal flushes etc. Stop whinning and take your beats like a man.

why close? forum is there to discuse otherwise we had alot threads about being rigged, bad beats etc
anyways, no offense but in some cases it would be interesting to see handhistory of those who are crying bad beat or rigged. i bet some hands you could of avoid or just step back if you think the board is too dangerous - except you´ve been too much involved in the pot.

Finally someone that understands the process... When you are badbeated, most of the time in stars is because people pay yo with crap, live with it, and learn how to steal their money. You wont get an Ace in the board when you have pocket aces always, but someone with a 10-9 hole, can get a straight, flush draw, 2 pair, etc. Its just that.
Live with it, or play royal poker... you know the one where you only have the 10+ cards

You are talking about one hand, show me 200 hands in 1k hands of "bad beats" and ill believe you... Yeah, you might lose money to bad beats, but you will win money with bad beats, lets say QKs bs AKs (clubs) and you get a flush, things like this happens...
If you want to see a real (not really) bad beat, check the pokerstars.tv site and look for aces got cracked video...
And yes, they are not playing for 20 dollars, they are playing for thousand of euros...

@fireworks21, we dont get the point of bad beats? sorry, your scenario isnt even a bad beat !! no wonder so many ppl cry about bad beat..
edit: bad beat is if your clearly ahead, lets say with 2 pairs and your opponent gets his out for a straight. but just because you have ace high on board doesnt mean its a bad beat.
edit2: short example, today i limp in with QJ, 2 players call, flop: 7QJ
i raise a bit and got reraised by one opponent i go all in, he shows KK. i was still ahead with 2 pairs. turn dont remember, river 7...he wins with KK 77, thats a bad beat
