What is the most aggravating thing about poker?
What is the most aggravating things about poker? For most people it is the bad beats. Getting sucked out on is always something that can send you on tilt. But for me it is the times when you sit down at a table (especially a $10/$20 table or something) and get bad cards for 3 hours straight. If you get a bad beat, at least you were in a hand and had a chance of winning the hand. But when you get bad hands you feel hopeless because you have no chance of even winning a hand. Especially when you get the hands like J-10o in middle position because after getting hands like 7-2o for an hour, J-10o looks like a monster. So it is especially hard to lay it down. Or when you get KQo in late position and someone riases in middle position and you are dying to call because you haven't played a hand in 45 minutes but you know you can't call because you know the guys has a strong Ace and you are behind. Then you end up losing $200 just because of all the blinds you posted (especially the big blinds oyu had to fold when people raised and re-raised). Those nites suck the most for me.
