What do you think about bad beats in cash games?

[VVi10]

I think its depending on the day, some days i pay with top pairs and always loose, other days i try to pay with some numbers suited and win...so it´s very crazy

I mean bad beats are a part of poker, they happen in cash games aswell as in tournaments... Dont get frustrated over them, your not the only one having them and in the same amount of situations like that your the lucky one ^^ Just focus on your mistakes and keep grinding!

Bad beats are a part of poker. Card by card revealed in the community cards can make or break your hand. If you find yourself always losing with top pair, then perhaps evaluate your game and try to be aware when you opponent might be raising over you. Visualize what starting hands might cause them to do that and try to use that info to evaluate your own game play in these scenarios.

Thank you for your post. I Guess it depends on your definition of bad beat. If you lose to a two pair hand then I don't exactly consider that a bad beat. If I lose a king high flush to the Ace high flush or my pocket aces or Kings are cracked by some ridiculous all in from an opponent preflop then yes it can get frustrating. More often then not your stronger flushes and full houses are going to be good. AA & KK are usually going to be favorable long term as well. If you constantly find yourself beaten by a mediocre hand then I would tighten your opening range and only play sets, two pair hands, and Nut Draws. This should put you in position to be successful.

Good Luck To All

I think it's not important, if cash or tournament. It shouldn't be a problem on long term with the correct bankroll management. Stay above it and play smart to be successful!

Good morning, I come through this, once again complain about the draw of the cards, I'm taking bad bets one after the other.
I play on poker sites, where the only site that the results run counter to the likelihood of poker, and the pokerstar site, is revolting.
On 03/31/2020, I was eliminated from micro monday 6 max, AKo vs A6o, in cash I lost AA vs JJ and my last hand of that day lost AKo vs AQs.
In the first leg of 04/01/2020, I went all in for AQo vs A4s on the villainous turn three of a kind. 99 vs AKo vs AQo and hit A on the flop, taking that hand off 99, in pokerstar it's bad bet all over, I play at bet365 and blackchip, there's almost no bad bet.
It may be that someday I change my mind but the pokerstars will not receive my deposit, every time the hand that is least likely to win, is winning.
On the other sites I play Mtts for 5 or 6 hours and arrive at the final table, poker is poker anywhere in the world, the hands with the highest probability win, less on the pokerstars website it is revolting.
How many good players have complained about these absurd pokerstars results?

I've been dedicating myself to cash game zoom for 4 months, at pokerstars it's bad bet all the time, i play cash at 888poker, bet365, blackchip and pokerstars, there's only bad bet in a row at pokerstars, do a test when you're in All in at pokerstars where you have more than 70% chance of winning at cash zoom choose cash out, you are likely to win all or lose 1, write down 5 results in a row of those All in who chose cash out, and repeat result more do not choose cash out and write down the 5 results you had more than 70% chance of winning, you will notice that the times you do not choose cash out you lose more often.
In my opinion pokerstars is the best online poker site, plus the absurd results in which the hand with the least chance of winning wins every time is revolting.

I don't like it, but it's part of the game... Even when it's me on the other side.

I was so frustrated with my bad beats in cash game. I have been playing more than MTT and spin and go for 6 months.

 

[DancingNancie]

I find bad beats much less irritating in cash games than in a tournament or SNG. Bad beats happen and in a cash game if it is for stacks you can just reload. I take solace in that I made a good decision and got my money in as a favorite. That is all you can do.

Until you lose with Quads, you can’t consider you’ve had a bad beat. ��

 

[Vallet]

I think bad beats depend on different factors. This is mainly due to the choice of table. Some opponents have a bad hand and force you to put large amounts in the bank, but a successful river helps them.

 

[tw082]

they r great! What kinda question is that? think we all feel the same about bad beats at any table.

 

[Arthur ZM]

There is nothing special in bad beats; this is an integral part of the game, they happen from time to time.

 

[Misaki]

nothing. Next hand.

Calling with trash hands just because you lost with your premium hands isn't the way to play cash games... if you play just for fun and don't care about results it's OK but if you try to beat a certain game and plan to grind it for a long time I would advise you to make some rules to follow- bankroll management is the most important, you should also have charts with hands you should play or not play(you'll find info on this site too) etc... in the end nobody can control the way the cards are dealt (live or online), we can only try our best to make the best decisions to maximize our chances of winning- the rest is in the hands of the Poker Gods

This is part of the game - no one is safe from this. I try not to pay attention to bad beats, if it doesn’t work, then I exit the game. Especially, when bad beats happen on the river several times in a row.

Unfortunately, it's part of the game and we have to deal with them. I don't like, but it is.
