I don't see any "crazy" beats in either one of those hh's.
You're joking?

No. Not even a little. Is it crazy when somebody wins the lottery? Wow they hit their 1 in 10000041000 chance of winning. That should never happen, everyone should always lose. How often does the lotto get split between 3+ ppl? What's the chance of that... 1 in 400000000000000016000? You've never seen a one or two outer hit?You're joking?
Full tilt is a joke imo. Look at these 2 hands:
What annoys me here is the fact that I lose my AA to a set of 8s but there was only 1 8 left in the deck! Crazy stuff.
absolute standar..
do you never ear the phase "aces over king"???
do you never ear the phase "set over top pair"???
seem like you dont play too many hands..
it does seem like that i saw ivey pick up quads right on the flop to win 20 grand
Sorry but I have to laugh... someone is always complaining that they are getting bad beats, and blaming it on the site.
Since party poke quit the US there have been alot of new donks at FT. You have to change your game and adapt. I now play a more aggressive small ball approach.
If you are getting a huge amount bad beats maybe its time to re-evauate your game.
Are you making a big enough preflop bet to clear the field?
Are you calling a pot sized (or less) bet on the flop rather than reraising?
Most of the bad beats I see or recieve happen because of trying to trap or be too "cute", trying to trap... I have learned the hard way if I'm pretty sure I have the best hand I play it fast and hard especially in multi-way pots. Granted maybe I don't get the big payoffs sometimes but I don't get sucked out by a runner runner draw as much.
Learn to laydown a big hand to stay in the tourney, learn to pick your spots.
One other thing I see alot on FT is people playing AK like its the nuts... its just 2 big unpaired cards. Most people just don't know how to play them.
So instead of complaining about the site, do some studying of your hand historys find out why your getting so many bad beats. Then do some research in the poker books or pro blogs example; Scott Fischman on cardplayer.com is really good.
Bad beats are part of the game, learn from them then forget them don't dwell on them and don't let them affect your play.
Good Luck, Jimi

I tried fulltilt for about 2 months now and I have to say....poorest attempt at real poker yet. The random or should I say not so random card generation is a fantastic joke. They have more flushes than a public restroom and more bad beats than ultimate fighting.I don't see any reason to sink anymore money into this site unless you are donating just to donate.Think imma stick to Bodog and pokerstars.....
