I was playing on pokerstars or JokerStars today and this is what happened.

Me: QQ (raised pre-flop)
Opponent 1: KK (reraised, I called since I don't have the nut pre-flop which is AA)
Opponent 2: 68 offsuit (called)
Other Opponents (they folded on the Flop or before showdown so I don't know their hand)

Flop: 8QA (KK raised, I reraised, and everyone else called).
Turn: 8 (KK raised, I reraised, everyone called)
River: 8 (KK raised, 68 offsuit reraised, I called and KK did the same)

Come on. Are you serious! This never happens when I play Live at the Casino. It's okay if someone played 68 offsuit before the Flop and hit a Full House or Trips on the Flop and Suckout on me. I can handle this because no one knows what the Flop will be before it happens (they'll end up loosing in the long run). But to call bet and raises all the way to the "Turn" with bottom pair makes me wonder if he/she knows something I don't. Maybe it's another "PotTrip" in action. This person was winning hands after hands as if the system is letting them win. And all the hands that wins are hands that should be folded Pre-Flop and Flop to a bet/raise. Granted, this does not happen all the time on PokerStars, but it happened too much. I got "Bad Beat" at Live casino too when middle pair called my bet to see the "Turn" and catches 2 Pairs or Trips, but this is ridiculous and it happens too often.

The KK was a loose player to continuously call my raise with 2nd pair, but I guess he just can't let go of KK. But the 68 person was ridiculous! I wish they would have dealt me KK instead because I would have folded on the Flop with that Ace on the Board and lost so much less.

Relax, it sounds like your blaming pokerstars for your loss.
Had the 68 player not been a complete donkey, then you would have won the hand.
If your playing the micros, then be prepared for those players, because there are so many of them, players like the one you ran into is most likely playing way below their BR so they will essentially play bingo, and if they go out, oh well, probably costed them less than 2% of their BR to play.

As for it happening too often, you have to remember that you are playing twice as many hands online than live so you'll obviously run into bad players more often.

BTW, this will probably be moved to our rigged mega thread.

Sure the call was terrible, but one you should be loving when you look at it logically. The last thing you want, is someone calling with their set of Aces or so.

Not sure what you mean by "pokerstars magic" - Just because you're favorite doesn't mean someone can't hit runner/runner quad eights, nothing is 100% in poker until it's 100% and it wasn't 100% on the flop.
