after suffering my worst run since starting to play i decided to change strategies. so last nite we had a game between 8 of us all putting in £20 - big game were mostly students! anyhow it worked a treat- all nite i made call after call and found myself heads up against what i consider the most aggressive player we play with - believe me this guy goes all in so much u just cant get a fix on what he has! skillfully i played him down until i had about 80% of the chips. time to put the pressure on..........he goes all in with A9, i look down AK.....couldnt get my chips in fast enough......first card on the flop.......the nine! next all in i have AK again he has A6- flop 44J then another jack then a five .....split pot. then after wearing him down to about 10 percent of the chips i put him all in with K9 hearts he calls saying he is pissed off and just wants to finish it.............so he throws over his 89 off suit - i smile ---happy days ii think- my first win in over a month - i show him my k9hearts he leaves the room in disgust to go to the toilet and shaking my hand congratulating me on his way. he comes back and says \'how did it go\' the look of disgust in my dface said it all - the first card of the flop?....................an 8. after a few more hands he\'s up to about 35% of the chips. next i have pocket 5\'s flop the set - check he bets - i call ....i put him on top pair. flop was KQ5 , next card is a 2 again i check he bets. next comes up another queen - i\'ve made the house!!!!! i check he bets , i move him all in he calls........with a Q5 in his hand. next hand i get 66 with the price of the blinds i move all in he stays in with j9 and flops his jack!!!! not happy but hey thats poker!!!!!!!

so i start the hand with pocket 4\'s, it\'s heads up game and the flop comes 6 4 8. I set my 4\'s so i barely raise since flop was a rainbow and i want him to stay in. He calls me. The turn comes 8. I now have a full house and i get the feeling my opponent picked up his set. I check-raise him all-in. With both of us being all-in the river comes 8. He got his quads, the only card that could\'ve helped him on the river beats my worthless full house.

Oh NO! What a bad beat, you were only a 2-1 favorite when the money went in. Hardly worth a post at all.

Billed as the Largest Amature poker tourney, I was playing in the Park City Poker Round up in Park City Ks. 2100 enteries on the 1st day. I am just about even going in to the break. Come back and get delt AK hearts. I am 1st to act and call the big blind at $600. Next 3 people fold 4th guy calls, dealer folds, small blind calls and big blind checks. Flop comes Q 9 2, all hearts. SWEET! The nut flush. Small and big blind check so I check thinking the other guy has hit something. He bets $600. The 2 blinds fold. I reraise to all in, about another 1500. The guy calls. We flip over and I show him the nuts. He has 9 2 off suit. Turn comes and it is a 5 spade. River comes and it is a 2 clubs. I would play it the same way again.

Single table tournie. I get dealt KK. I raise about 325. Guy next to me goes all in with AJ offsuit. I call. Flop comes K 9 3. I flop a set. He is about 1.9 percent to win from there with no flush possiblity just runner strait. Turn comes Q and river comes 10 giving him the only two cards he could have won with.

3-6 Hold Em game with the BB jackpot at $28,000 and change. The BB hand is aces full of jacks or better. I limp in with QJ of diamonds with four others. I\'m in the 8 seat on the button. The flop comes AKK, two diamonds and a club. I\'ve flopped the Royal Draw, and by the time it gets to me, my raise makes it 3 bets. The No. 1 seat caps it and the No. 3 seat calls. I call. The turn is a J of hearts and we cap the betting again among the three of us. The river is the 10 of hearts, giving me a straight. Big Deal! The 1 seat bets, the 3 seat raises. By now I\'ve figured out what\'s going on and announce I\'m folding but ask the dealer to hold onto my cards. The one seat calls and turns over pocket aces for aces full of kings. The three seat turns over pocket kings for quads and everybody looks at me like I\'m crazy for calling all that way. After the celebration is over the dealer shows my cards and everybody sees how close we came to a 3-way bad beat, which would have been a REALLY BAD BEAT for the aces full, who would have been left out in the cold with a table share if that river had been the 10 of DIAMONDS!! My share was $800 and something for a table share.

Bowmans

Okay y\'all complainning how your Aces-Full was beat by a Turn/River Quad and how the opponent had only ONE out and hit it. Didn\'t it occur to you that online Poker might be rigged? That Poker sites have their staff all over the table to suck in players\' chips? Why don\'t these bad beats occur in real life? At Bowmans, more often than not, in heads-up tournament or even in multi-tourney I am delt AK suited while someone else has AA. Once I had AA against KK (both all in) and of course, K hit the board. And check out this a$$hole: I have AK preflop, I raise, one more player left, he re-raises me with 8-4 offsuit! Flop comes A-A-2 (no flush draw). I bet, he raises, I reraise and he calls. Turn is a 5. Again, I bet, he raises, etc. River, you guessed it, NOTHING but a 3. So we have A-A-2-5-3. I have AK, he has 84 off. If that is not rigged I don\'t know what is, I am 99% sure he was a Bowmans employee. Today I had ALL bad beats such as all in with A9 suited heads-up against 3-2 offsuit (idiot calls all in) and flop is A92, Turn is blank, and river is a 2. Online Poker is not random, it\'s RIGGED! There are Pokersite-staff in there all the time and they can control what cards come up and if you don\'t believe that you\'re a retard.

PokerStars

I don\'t know whether to attribute this to my suspicions with PokerStars as a system, or to chalk it up solely to stupid play by others. I\'m dealt AKo, and am short stacked on account of having JJ broken by a suited 45. But that\'s another story. So, I\'m dealt AKo, I raise triple the blind and get one caller. Flop comes out A 6 A. I push the rest of my stack in, not fooling around because I am honestly terrified of letting all five cards come down on PokerStars. I get called, the cards are flipped and I realize that I\'m up against...what could it be?...oh, it\'s a 45o! Ridiculous play. So I\'m sure you know what\'s coming. Turn 7, River 8. Great.

I\'m heads up and chip leader by about 1000 in a 9 person sit n\' go. I\'m dealt 7J off suit and BB so I check preflop. Flop come 7 K 7 and I check hoping he would bet. He does. He bets 200 i raise 500 he calls. Turn is a 3. He goes all-in and of course I call. He shows pocket 3s hitting the miracle 2 outer. I end up losing because I was down so much.

Down to 3 tables of the 15k Guaranteed Nightly Tournament ($20 buyin) with approximately 50K chips... average stack size around 23k. Blinds are at 500-1000 and early position tight player limps.. Im holding 10 10 in the SB and make standard raise of 3000 to go. BB folds and early limper calls. Flop comes 10 9 2 rainbow. I check and early limper moves allin for his remaining 37k.. I quickly call. He turns over JJ. Turn 7, River 8 ...giving him runner runner nut straight. I am crippled and bust out a few spots short of the final table 30 minutes later. =( That one stung.

I was dealt QQ and the other player was dealt 55. We were about evenly stacked so I raised him all in and had about 1000 chips remaining after the bet. Flop comes A Q 8 rainbow suits. Now I got a set of Queens, the only way he can beat me is with runner runner 5\'s on the turn and river. Sure enough 5 of hearts on the turn and then the 5 of diamonds on the river. Nothing like getting sucked out on a 100-1 shot. Without a doubt the worse beat I have ever taken!!!

This is awful, okay, I was dealt Kings on the button and I raised, 3 stayed in. The flop brought 3,9,6, great for me. I was feelin fine. These guys were fish, and I was poundin em with check raises like crazy, with obvously, the best hand. Next was the 8, which was pretty scary for me, but I figured not again (the 2 hands before I lost on the river with AA and AK). So I pushed it all in. All of em called (newBs) The last card, of all cards, was a 10, I yelled \"Oh come on!!!\" When the hands were flipped, one guy had a K7, I HAD HIM DONE!!! Oh well, Ill win a hand sometime.

cash game

I was playing at the trump casino in gary Indiana, in a 2/5 no limit game. I was in the big blind with king 4 suited, and an aggressive player in late position made it 25 to go, everyone at the table folded to me so i gave him action. The flop came out k k 4 rainbow (no flush draw). Im first to act so i check to him, he bets the pot so i smooth call him with the nuts. The next card is the Q of hearts, making the board Kh-k-4-Qh. I lead out for 100, and he raises me like another 350, which was the rest of my stack. I get my money in the pot quicker than he does, then looking embarrased he shows me a 9h-10h. I smile confidently, when the river comes out Jh! The only out in the deck he had. It was like a nightmare i couldn\'t wake up from. Still to this day i haven\'t seen anyone ever go from a 989 to 1 favorite to a loser. But, like they say thats poker baby!

WSP Sat. 120+ people. Down to final table (9 people). I have pocket 8s. Modest raise. Only one caller making it heads up.. Flop 8 8 9. He bets me all in and I call. He has pocket 9s. Turn 3. And of course 9 on the river. I bust out ninth and they gave prizes to 8th and up.

on the button i get dealt KK, action folds around to me, and I raise 4 times the blind. Small blind folds, big blind calls. Flop is K-2-7. Big blind goes all-in, i immediately call. Big Blind shows pockets 10s. Turn 10, river 10. My flopped nut set is turned and rivered by quads, someone tell me the odds of that happening.

all online sites

Just think of your bad beats and read about the rest of them on here? If you ask me this happens to much online and seems suspisious to me doesnt it to you people? We need to boycot these over seas web sites because the rules and regulations arent as strict as in the U.S.A If we do this will it do any good? I played in vegas for awile and listening to the table talk you would be suprised of the info I heard. First of all the scariest one was that a dealer in vegas has a friend who has a descrambler, which makes all cards visable to him. Because the programs are written with the cards visable, than the back side of the card is added as the scrambling. WOW? He also said that the web sites do pick up on it sometimes, the kicker is, have you ever been on a web site playing and all of a sudden you and maybe several people are booted off the site? Well that is the poker site detecting the cheat, wow has that happened alot!!!!! So the times you are not kicked off is someone knowing what you have? Been too many times for me I\'ve gotten beat and the only way I see that person beating me is that he knows what I have? I dont know and dont care any more because I dont deposit a dime into any of these any more, but I love poker and want to play, but I want to play fair and be played fair! The other cheat I heard is the most common one, it is two to four people on the table are partners and talk with MSN on telling what each have, this crap can be avoided with U.S.A laws????? Lets do some thing about this so we can play what we love and not be cheated!

I had 67 of diamonds in late position. Medium raise by guy on the button (trying to steal) and about 4 callers. Flop comes 5s 8d 4d, giving me the nut straight with a flush and straigh-flush draw. Check around to the guy on the button. He comes in with a moderate bet (about 3x blinds). I call as does 1 guy in front of me. the river comes the 5c. Check, Check, guy on the button makes a huge bet. The only other guy folds, I put him on trip 5\'s. I slow call. Turn comes 5d giving him four 5\'s and me a straight-flush to the 8. He goes all in and I call. I love being on this end of the bad beat.

are you serious?

bluffing all in with ace high and having your opponent call with 8-7 and hit an 8 on the river is not exactly a "bad" beat... how bout you rethink what constitutes a bad beat and repost when you've truly been beaten badly... MORON

I was dealt pocket 10\'s. I limped in to get more action. The tournament just started and the blinds were only 50-100. There were 5 players who called the big blind. The flop came down Ah-10c-Ad. I flopped the full house. Everyone checked to me, so I went all in announcing \"Who\'s slow playing?\" seat 1 called with Ac-3s. The turn came 10. I made QUADS. The river delivered the final ACE. Ace of spades. This was the bad-beat of the week!!!! River Ryan

Absolute Poker

Yup Im pretty new to this online poker thing. I really enjoy playing live or online and I\'d like to think that I am a little better than my average opponent. Anyway made a small (very small) deposit and turned it into over 500 in a week playing cheap NL cash games and 1/2 stud. I didnt really want to leave those games for higher limits because they were my bread and butter. Well one day i was just looking at a 1/2 blinds Nl cash game. It was weaker that the .25 .50 that I was playing. Every player except for 1 was under the min buy in. And the 1 guy who actually had over 200 was HAMMERED! The guy couldnt get a message on the chat board that was even readable not to mention he went all in 3 out of the 5 hands that i observed. Needless to say I liked my chances. Sat down and in about 15 minutes I had 150 (125 dollar buy in) and was looking at mid position kk. Fishman (the drunken 1.) raises to 10, i re raise 25 in hopes that he would push them yet again. He did just that. I instcall and and am thrilled to see not even an ace, but a k/3 clubs. I was not thrilled to see three clubs on the flop. (sigh!) My table was berating him. I didnt bother. That was the most money that I had ever had in a single pot and it coincided beautifully w/ the worst most hideous beat that I could ever imagine. Like I said the table was berating him saying he was tilting and he replies. \"yea rigjt im tlitting.\" I have to end this post now and go vomit. Thanks for lending an ear!
