Now Dear Reader if you are anything like me Poker is no longer about money, I have enough, How ever I do Hate to lose at ANYTHING, I am highly aggressive by nature, and very highly motivated and competitive by Birth.

So I saying BAD BEATS DO NOT EXIST

If some one draws down on you, YOU let them DO IT with YOUR BET !

You Bet, and unfortunately you also do DUFF CALLS.

If you have to think about a CALL it’s a coin flip or it’s the Wrong Play.

OK I started the ball rolling Start Shooting:-

I agree a bad beat is not a bad beat unless you work it up to be. of course if you go all in with a good hand but other guy has good hand and its close its a coin toss not just a bad beat bad call bad play who know

hi.

you may call me a bad poker player (it is a posibility) but what about feelings?

do they exist in a poker game? i believe they do and especially online.

sometimes, in random hands i get this feeling (when im the one who is chasing) and im willing to call just about anything you bet on me- just to hit my draw- if and when im sure that when i do, my hand will be a winner.

say a hand like A

K

....

im not alwayis willing to play it agressively... and sometimes ill just fold it without winking but if i have this same ace suited even with a junk and im 4 to flush on the flop.... (and i get the feeling i was talking about earlier) it will almost be impossible to get me of my draw and i will be ready to commit a huge some of my chips just in order to get it!!

same is backwards.... if im the one who is leading on the flop and "i feel" that my opponent is 4 to flush, then, i will play according to the feeling.

this is not an advice...!!!!

i can't advice you about your feelings, but i suggest you to listen to your heart, to your intuition (?! correct spelling?)

after all, poker is not only hard math - to me anyway.....

i agree but if you go all in on with 22 and guy has AA preflop on the flop a 259 comes up and then an A for turn and a K for the river dont thats not a bad beat thats just poor playing who goes all in 22 preflop... now if you had AK suited ok i could understand if the guy had AQ offsuited and KQ10 pops up then Q then a 2 now thats a bad beat.
