Brags, Beats & VarianceWin a big hand or tournament, suck someone out, brag about it in here. Get sucked out and want to kill yourself... well don't do that! Post it here... talking it out is the best therapy!
Hey everyone I just got hit by about 5 consecutive big pot bad beats. I want to vent and as such I will outlay the circumstances that unfolded which led me to vent.
First: This particular hand started off well, I had AQ off suit and I raised 3x the big blind. The donkey to my left calls me as the flop came 5 K Q. I checked and he checked, the turn card was a 9 and I raised 5x the BB, he called me and the river came a 10. We both proceeded to check, and the donkey won the pot with a king. The reason this was bad was because he came into the pot with a king three suited even though I had made a decent raise and he was out of position.
Second: Coincidentally, this second bad beat started off well, as I had pocket 10s. As such, I raised the 4x the big blind and two individuals called behind me. The flop came J 10 5 and I raised bet 10x the BB. Much to my surprise, both of the individuals behind me decided to call. The turn card was an ace and the person to my left bet 8x the BB, the next person called and I promptly re raised 14x the BB. Both other players called behind me. The river was a nine and the first guy raises me 4x the BB and I go all in both call and I ended up losing to a Q 8.
I am too lazy to edit the third one.
Third: I have AK hearts I raise 3x BB other guy calls all in (he had less chips than me) I call flop comes J 4 6 two hearts turn comes a 6 river a six and the idiot won with a FH kings full of sixes I understand I would have made the same call but thats just plain bad fkin luck lol

I have a headache after reading that! Please tell ms English is not your first language!
Punctuation is your friend, and do me a solid, and look up the definitions of bet, call and raise!

No he didn't.
also look up variance. You need to be happy that these guys are calling like that.

I would have called you with K-3 suited too. After the Flop I am pretty sure I am ahead I would re raise your bet. . A bad beat is if you had flopped a set or even 2 pair and he was to suk out going runner runner for a straight or hitting the fourth king on the river.
J-10-5. Str8 draw on board. May call this again. Depends on how I am running and what size my stack is.
My motto; Never raise with BIG SHIT as 90% of the time you end up with it all over your face.
There endeth the Lesson.
