Here's a beat i suffered the other day.

Noble POker .25 .50 blinds 10 handed

I have 5 dollars at the table and am in the 6th spot. I am dealt pocket 7s.

The table folds around to me. I raise to 1.50 and get two callers. Flop comes 2 7 10.

One of the callers is the big blind, now first to act, and he bets 1 dollar, I then raise all in with my 3.50. The other player folds and this guy calls.

He flips over a 10 queen.

Turn is a queen.
River, none other then another queen to give him a better full house then me.

Ergh frustrates me so much when clowns get lucky on me. But such is poker right?

See... i have a theory that online poker is not rigged all together, yet the hands are fixed so that there is a guy who is almost certain he has won, yet is still on the bad end of it. They do this to increase the pot size so they get a larger rake i guess.. or maybe i am just completely wrong about the whole thing.. but it just seems so rigged sometimes ;\ FOr instance.. i have AQ and another guy has pocket kings... Flop comes 3Q5... i raise, he re raises of course.. i come over the top... you can't expect KINGS!! its just like it was put there to screw the guy with queens

Yeah it could be i have thought of this laso sometimes but yes maybe we´re wrong, we´ll never know but its still very fun and interesting to play on the net.

Online when playing against a re raise and you have kings, i feel that a re re raise almost merits a fold, but that all depends on teh person that you are playing. Occasionally you will get queens or ace king in that spot, but more often than not, its aces. In most cases like this, i dont push all in, i simply take a flop and then play it from there. Perhaps you can spike your king, or maybe an ace will show up. Then you have the oppurtunity to play the flop, which is where the real players make their money. Try to take flops and then if need be, make laydowns on the side of caution, and then take his money in a different spot where you have hit a flush or a straight or something. This is just my opinion because i have been burned way to many times by running into aces or bad luck when i put all my money in pre flop when i dont have too.

I've learned my lesson with those ugly cowboys! I now just limp in with them and if there is an ace on board I get out, throw my hand away I will not go all in pre flop with K's seems like everytime I do flop comes AA
