Here\'s a good one for ya...PokerStars Special
 

This happens "ROUTINLEY" to me at Stars. My opponents continually are rewarded for their bad decisions. Sorry just had to vent a bit. Anyone else see this happening more than it should?

Yeah, I've had a few bad beats as well but mostly at PP. Maybe PP is conspiring with PS to eliminate all people who bets on AA?

Re: Here\'s a good one for ya...PokerStars Special
 

Tommy Angelo wrote an article about folding aces preflop. Do a search on google or something and read it. You will be enlightened.

The bad beat police have been alerted...

Re: Here\'s a good one for ya...PokerStars Special
 

Yep I lost yesterday with pocket aces on the 4th hand of a $10 SNG when I raised 150 and the guy went all in behind me with pocket 9's. Of course he had to wait until the river to hit is 9 lol.

Re: Here\'s a good one for ya...PokerStars Special
 

Yes I read Tommy's article awhile back. However this was definitley not a case to lay down AA. I'm not complaining about the calls. Just to the contrare. I had them both drawing very thin. One queen in the deck or runner runner spades. And bingo the rr spades came and I'm out. Stars seems to do this almost routinely, that's all I';m saying.

Last nights 2+2 late sng. We are down to 5 or 6 and I got AKo and opp has AQo. We get it all-in before the flop but I have him covered. The flop is K, rag, rag with 2 clubs. I don't have a club but my opp does. I say right into the computer screen "runner, runner club coming". And it did. Ah, the power of negative thinking.

Didn't tilt though and managed to finish 2nd. It's so common that I now got my mind right. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

You just know the police are coming. Seriously though, what's the point of this dude? r/r happens, Don't feed the conspiracy theory monster.

Re: Here\'s a good one for ya...PokerStars Special
 

I have a dream that someday, people with top pair; 2nd best kicker, backdoor flush draw; will fold every hand to me.

Someday...
