| | | My bad play of the day
Short and sweet.
On Party Poker,,No Limit...
I have Ace  Jack in the big blind (25 cents)
Small blind raises to a dollar...I call
Flop comes 8 8  2
Villian bets $1...I call
Turn is a Queen 
Villian pushes in another $1, I call
River is a 10 , giving me the nut flush
Villian bets $3
I raise all in for $23
Villian calls
He has pocket 10s....Full house beats my Ace high flush. Nearly crapped my pants. Guess that's what I get for chasing all the way to the river, make my hand and get killed.
That's poker

| | | Seems to me lately, that when I'm in a hand on-line, there is always the nuts against me when I get great hands. It's a bit frustrating, don't go anywhere near royal vegas if you don't like bad beats. I've never seen so many pocket pairs dealt to people and how many bizarre straights and fullhouses hit. I shouldn't complain I hit a Q's full of !0's on the river all-in against a made flush, crazy site. You think you've got only 4 cards to dodge, it seems like it's orchestrated like a crazy movie, everyone has a chance to win, so why not stay in....

That's poker | 88, 82, 8Q, 8T, TT, 22, QQ have you beat.
when the board's paired... a flush is how you say, often beat? you raised $20 into a pot of $12. what did you expect to get called with? |

| | | I wasn't expecting a call. I thought he had a set, but never saw the boat coming.
I dare so 99% of the poker players in the world would have lost it all with that hand too, so I am not to upset. |

| | If you weren't expecting a call, then why bet that much. If you believe you have the best hand, bet what you believe he will call so that you can make more money 
Oh and don't go broke with nut flush on a paired board

| | | Try playing a little omaha hi/lo. You'll understand quickly that a paired board leads to boats many of the times.
Obviously, its because people get 4 cards, but it makes you watch the board and bet accordingly.

| | Try having Trip A's  beat by U got 4 of a kind 2's !!!! Talk about being flustered  Hell I.ve seen it like that in real life and on line.All I can say is when you think you have the nutts in your hand you had better watch where your opponents hand is because it might be spread a little wider for the bigger ones he's holding |

| | | I wouldn't call that a bad beat. He was ahead of you all the way from preflop to the river. A bad beat is when you are ahead and someone with a bad hand beats you. |
