Why do they blame the site and not their bad play?

I was playing in freeroll this afternoon. When this hand came up. Player 1 in the UTG seat. Raise's allin with pocket 8's. Then Player 2 in the CO -1 calls with AKs. Player 1 loses when an Ace spikes the river. Player1 goes off the deep end about the site being rigged and Player 2 is a donkey for making the call. Now Player 1 made the play and it's not his fault for it. Instead of raise a 3-4x's the big blind and seeing what develops he dumps all his chips and expects to win. What do you guys think. LOL

frustration and lack of experience.

I was playing Omaha hi lo PL today, played a hand perfectly that would have taken out a guy with the same stack. He could not fold his top pair and bust lo on flop, 2 pair on turn v my nut flush. He had 2 outs on river and hit for FH.

He was the donk. Because I slow played him and reraised he did not have a clue what I had.

But it wa nothing to do with the site.

yep I see situations like that all the time....its so funny to see someone shove all their chip and complain when they lose them. No one forced him to shove...I mean I know he was UTG...but still..lol

But your right ppl are alway saying that the sites are rigged and Aces always show up....

I guess when you lose...passing the blame is the best ya can do...

If AK always beats smaller airs online then never play your smaller pockets and always shove AK..

Or wait... I spose then it would re-rig to make the Ak lose.

People cannot be surprised when they bet everything on a coinflip (at BEST) when it comes up tails.

But then again, we can only be glad they think this way.

I have had pocket aces busted...straights beat by flushes....flushes beat by a full house and full houses beat by 4 of a kinds........i have also been on the winning side of many of those too it's just the game we all decided to play and unfortunately a good percentage of players are just sore losers.

Because it takes very little intelligence to breed. Therefore, wherever people gather together, you will tend to find at least one idiot.

Ive also noticed that. Blaming the site is so common now... people make bad plays and say that the site is wack and stuff like that... plus, they want 0 bad beats, which also happens a lot playin live

The last 2 live games I have played i went out on AK with an ace on the board to a 3 of a kind and the other was a full house beat by a better full house so it happens no matter the computer deals or real person does.
