used to think that the programming for online poker was wacked
seemed like the bad beats were ridiclous and tooooo often.
then i started watching more live tournys and saw that it happens
to the best of them quite often too.........
maybe not quite as often online...who knows
i just dont wine and complain any more...i expect it
bottom line if u put ur chips out there and someone wants to gamble on the draw..........well that swhy the call it gambling...live with it and GL!

I have had my butt handed to me some often in the last week by bad beats and river rats it is ridiculous. The most recent I had pocket Kings and a guy at the table went all in, so I joined him. Flop came down K88. Wow, I flopped a house. Turn is a Q, nothing to worry about. River is another 8. He had gone all in on a 2-8 offsuit. It was only a thirty dollar buy-in tourney but
beats like that from idiots are becoming more prevalant.

wow u are playing with some real money sir. We ve all seen the pros being crashed by draws, i really dont know why some players play their draws as if they were holding a relly good hand.

Sometimes i know someone is trying to outdraw me, so i raise the pot because i dont want them to have the odds to call and they still call. Its just sick.

Oops those draws can be good and bad so indeed it will depend about how much you need to call for it

I think u didnt even read the post, ive already said those players can call even when they dont have the odds to do it.

I think we think there's more beats online because we see a hell of a lot more hands online in a set amount of time than live. It is possible that some poker rooms are rigged though.

I hope fulltilt is not rigged, thats all lol. I heard there were some judges because someone discovered PS was rigged, has somebody listen to something about that ???

No but I also know that FTP is not rigged, as for PS I tried it 2 years ago and never go there since it
