Here is the Converter, which is also connected to every converted hand posted.

Okay, I have done my part for this post. I will let others flame you for posting the bad beat, because I am feeling nice today due to a promotion.

Damn dude, you lost 10 bucks with aces! What can I say, if I ever lost a hand with them I would retire too! I think I read somewhere that pocket Aces are a 100:0 favourite against every other hand. There might be some errors due to rounding but still, this is an outrage.

I think you'll find less then a warm response to the majority of 'bad beat posts.' Simply because EVERYONE experiences them. Sometimes you can go session after session of ALWAYS losing to some moron who has no business being in the hand and hits 2 perfect cards to beat you. That's poker.

FYI- There was a period (the laymen call it "February") where I kept winning and losing so much, that after 60 hours or so of playing,... I had exactly the same bankroll that I started at.

Its gonna happen. In the longrun, if you're playing well, it should come back to you.

Some nights, stupid people are going to get lucky. But if they don't, then they're not going to come back. So, in the long run, its a good thing to throw them a bone once in a while.
