You played right, correct poker in your scenario. You got outdrawn, bad for you, great for your enemy.
Accepting tough beats is part of poker; it doesn't make the loss any less painful at the time, though.
Hang in there, keep playing. Every once in a while, you'll be on a roll, winning easily, cracking high pairs. Enjoy those victories, don't expect them, if you want to keep your poker emotions on an even keel.

Thank you for the advice

Yeah just yesterday i had AA cracked two times in 5 minutes.
And one of them was vs QJ.
And flop was 973.
And yes i did bet that flop two thirds.
Little stinker called.
Turn J.
River Q.
But i still closed session with double my bankroll.
True Poker player dont talk about luck. With enough still you can turn luck your way.


I agree with 50% luck, but I'm really sad thinking if I played it wrong

my AK hand, I prefer to isolate everything in the opponent's shove, he calls KQ and I end up losing

What exactly surprises you? Didn't you know that a hand with a pair of queens is stronger than ace high. AK is a very strong hand, but only preflop and is negligible if the opponent's cards coincide with the board. :D

This is normal . In the long run, we will still be in the front.

This happens sometimes. But at a distance-this is a good action.

You played right
In the long term, you are going to win money, your oponent are going to lose.
He had lucky one time, thats it. Every 100 times you play this hand against KQ you will win lose 25, now 24.
Its the Varience of playing poker, it happens. Its not so bad, imagine AA against QK. 87% of the time AA are going to win. But i already lost with this hand. It happens
Think about the good side: you already lost 1 of 25 times :D hahaha

Lack of luck is part of the game. I just think to all the times I've 2 outed someone and I feel better.

poker is a game of distance and only at a distance can you earn with this game if you do not take luck

It happens. It happens all the time. I think Holdem needs some big system changes.

These are ordinary things. This happens 100 times per session. What is the tragedy?

well it happens . it is poker

however the question would be how much you trust online poker etc.

if you ask me then online poker is rigged therefore you will experience such "bad beats" pretty often . and not because "yOu PlAy MoRe HaNdZ" ...thats not it

Something similar happened to me today, it is just slightly unlucky. I only play 2 nl though so I only lost 2 dollars.

Hello. Algorithms are to blame. They are setup in site software to eliminate players. When first starting, nearing a break or the bubble. Be aware of the maniac with a large stack. Whether its aa, kk, does not matter. If you bet, you will lose. So when you play online be aware of those circumstances. You are playing against the villain and the site software. When three or more players before you bet, watch out. The site is trying to get rid of players.

There is nothing we can do in such a situation, you have good cards - you have to play and count on luck.
