I see many players saying that the site manipulates multiple situations, which favors one or the other, which is always victimized.


But after all, do you know poker well?

Bad Beat is a hand where a player has 70% or more chance of winning a post or pre flop.
It is that situation that the villain only has 1 out and he appears on the river for example.

That is, Bad Beat, is the lucky item of the game, where in minimal situations when there is a volume, the villain will win ... but in the overwhelming majority you will always be ahead.


I do not particularly bother with this, because I know that the best action was mine, even though I lost.

Usually I need 10 seconds to breathe and come back to active.


And you, what is your reaction when you are in this situation?

One is a hand where the player was highly favored is defeated by a series of unlikely events. Usually it is said that if a win which was only 5-10% chance of winning, then it's a bad beat , or if a player gets hit two perfect cards.Example jogador A , KJ jogador B 93 flop 9 10 Q tunr 3 RIVER 3Player A has a sequence on the flop , player B has only a pair of nine. But the river , player B completed a full house .

Bad beats are part of the game. For around one month i decided to take notes how many times i win with bad beat and how many times i loose. The result was balanced and i also saw that bad beat happens relatively rare. At least this was my experience.

70% - that's nothing. I regularly lose hands where I'm over 90% favored to win.

If you play enough you see this sort of hand unfold a lot:

Bad beat is when you're out from deep run with alright stack like that :argh: :thumpdown

It's definitely the worst one from recent :(

It's just a part of the game and doesn't bother me at all.
If it's getting too much on 1 day, I stop playingh and do something amusing instead.

The better you play, the more bad beats you will encounter. And the higher the stakes, the fewer you will run into.

For me I actually invite players to complain about bad beats. I'll even sympathize with them. Why do you ask?

#1 If I look down at the table, and see a player complain about a beat, or say something on the lines of "wow that was brutal, or "I cant believe they were in there with that." When in all reality they had a ton of outs, and even if it seemed to be a slight judgmental/mathematical error I will, at that point, put the player who said it in a rec/inexperienced status in my mind and exploit them.

#2 If the player complaining just took the beat, and is still in the game I almost always sympathize. Allowing them to think that I wont take advantage of there tilt status. This is regardless if they are actually right or wrong on the fact it was a "bad beat". with that said, anyone that knows me will tell you. They just got the cross hairs pointed at them, and I'm ready to take the rest of there stack. hopeful with a "bad beat" mid range preflop hand so they will buy back, and i will get more off their emotional status.

and lastly #3. If #2 does happen like I hope it will. The table will at this point think I am a maniac fish, that will call, and bet just about anything. After winning the pot against the complainer. I now have the rest of the table at my finger tips just waiting to bust them with a premium hand.

The bad beat doesn't bothers me at all , tell me one player who didn't bad beat someone else. What bothers me the most is always the timing , Always when I deep run something and going for the massive chip lead and for the final table.

In such situations, I try to play as it will be correct. In general, I try to wait for a good occasion, and make the most of this moment.

Yes, I know what bad beat is: a excuse to many players to justify their erros. Bad beat is just the lucky part of the game, and isn't the crucial in the game.

a bat beat occurs when in a play you have the nuts and the river wins you ... or it could be said when you have a pair of aces and a pre flop bet a 23 and a ladder comes out .. lamentable sonmanos that take us out of tournaments taking us the desire to continue believing that there is no cheating

I like being the one holding the hand causing the bad beat. Exposing my possible lack of skill only to show up later with skill to win yet another pot from those assuming I have no skill. Now the table is unsure.

When I take a bad beat my reacation is generally... "well that's pretty standard" and I move on to the next game.

When you've gone on month long streaks of constant horrific bad beats and still have a profit to work with then bad beats don't really phase you very much anymore.


To be a winning poker player you need to have nerves of steel and never let your emotions get in the way of your gameplay. I know a lot of players who will take 2-3 consecutive bad beats and then take their whole bankroll to 1 table and tilt it all away.

Sometimes players will take a few bad beats and start to feel like it doesn't matter how they play because the game is just all luck. It's at this point that they lose their edge over the losing recreational players and become no different than them.

Yup, I know what a bad beat is. my reaction is to take a look at my next hand and go from there, the previous hand has ended.

We were all in on the flop.

This happens to me all the time in poker, my card coincides on the flop is excellent - and the other player gets a card even better on the Turn or River, this is poker and you need to get used to such situations, someone wins and someone loses, but can and your card will play perfectly!

Laws of probability dictate it will happen to you many times over the course of playing poker but eventually, if you play all the situations where you are 70/30 ahead, you will come out in front. Just be careful not to go on tilt and jump straight into impulsive actions if you experience a bad beat.

Talking about bad beats i will share a case from yesterday where bad beat was deeply in my favor. I had TT and the other player had hearts (A6 i think). I was short stack so i entered allin preflop from late position and he paid. Hearts came and he made his flush so my chance was very slim after the flop. Finally i got the other two 10s on the turn and river and beat him with four of a kind.

When my opponent hits runner runner to get a straight on the river I just chuckle shake my head and move on. No point in letting these things upset you it's just part of poker.
