In my eyes, bad players are those who don't know the probabilities and think they have to call even though the chance is very small, but there is also that certain luck or bad luck in poker. Flush draws in particular can hardly be folded by players even if you bet a pot size or more. But I'm not one to berate a player and I wouldn't attack someone for playing badly in my eyes. Everyone has their reasons why they play the way they do.

Everytime you can win or lose, chance = 50%

I remember one incident. When I started playing poker, I didn’t play for money, but played on one site with play chips, and I also socialized a lot there and had a lot of friends. I had one friend there, it seemed to me that she played well. In any case, she won billions of chips, although she later lost them. So she once began to complain about how the site rigs the game, such as when she has the same pairs of cards with her opponent, the chips unfairly go to the opponent when there should be a draw.) I tried to explain that the combination consists of five cards and not two, and here it has the value of the opponent’s second card is higher, but it seems I didn’t succeed.)

Personally, I never complain about fakes or bad luck, I don't complain because basically my complaints don't affect anything :)
But I often see players who blame everyone and everything around them for being just unlucky. I don't pay attention to all these pitiful comments, it is obvious that such players cannot control their emotions, their bankroll and their lives.

When you believe poker is "just luck"...
If it was just luck, then how do the poker pros keep placing consistently well in tournaments!

"I hate pocket kings.. always an ace on the flop!"
I was just in a game 15 minutes ago, and KK went all in. AQ called. Flop AA4 then 7, and the river a K.
So there you go. Sometimes KK do win.

I Did all the angry stuff, and still get discouraged when the best starting hand loses again.

What is something that only new or poor poker players say/do at the table?
Especially live, when I see someone saying that poker is only a game of luck and/ or constantly complains about losing on the river to 1/2/3 outs without even bothering to explain how the hand was played and when the money got in etc... I usually regard this people as new to poker and/ or bad poker players- also, this people are usually the ones that tilt fast after losing 1-2 'tough' hands and play even worse after* most of the time losing more money, so I welcome as many as possible at my table :)

Sometimes I'm good, sometimes I'm bad, and the main factor is mood.
I believe that mood has a negative and positive effect on any player, whether he is an ordinary player or professional

Hi :)
As always, in almost every tournament there are players who write in the chat that they hate the site they are currently playing on, that it is just a terrible and rigged site, but they still play. If I ask such players "why are you playing here then", I never get a clear, specific answer from them :)

Let's start with when they lose a hand to that 1-out terrible river card (we all know that feeling) and then, instead of shrugging it off, they go off on a tilty rant about how poker is rigged or the winner is a horrible player for even being in the hand in the first place.

They immediately begin to consider themselves the best poker players in the world and begin to teach everyone how to play.:)

1) smashing A rag all in first hand of a MTT for the change to win 30chips. (And of course so everyone knows who’s got the biggest c*ck 🤪😂🤏🏻)

2) calling pot raise on the BB with 5/8 off - because how dare anyone try to take my blind. Flop being A69. Opponent who’s got AA pot betting again. Calling for that one out 7. Hitting it on the turn and beating their set of Aces - then laughing and throwing violins thinking you’re some kind of poker master when in all reality you’re an idiot who shouldn’t have even been in the pot, and will more than likely go out in the next 3 hands.

3) being last to act in a 5 way pot and min re raising by 20chips

4)limping with monster hands letting the BB hit a bullshit straight or flush then being a baby having a tantrum when you lose.

"I hate pocket kings.. always an ace on the flop!"

I call Kings ‘ace magnets’ ALWAYS flop a A so their A rag wins

play only their two cards/their hand. not realizing that the game is really all about reading the other players how they play more than it is your own 2 cards. and not understanding the importance of position also.
