Default I hate online poker

After having played for two days on the internet, I have pulled out a wad of my own hair, gritted my teeth so much I believe I have ground down the enamel, clenched my fist and had to stop myself from hitting the computer, given "the finger" to the screen enumerable times. Rigged or not rigged, let me say, I F****** hate ***** online poker it's as painful as like razor blades under the fingernails, chinese water torture, or even worse, watching "celebrity poker" late at night with Paul Philips and Dave whats his name.

I'm sorry you guys who do well at it- I was literally ready to put my computer in vice. No way can that be on the up and up. No friggin way. I'm not going to list bad beats. No friggin way is that legitimate gambling.

1) Too many huge starting hands.
2) Too much action
3) Best hand changes every card
4) Company offers you free money to come and play
5) Someone has the nuts like almost every other hand.
6) Ridiculous hands one after another. quad 6's, set of 7's, AA's vs KK, straight flush.
7) Me always getting busted out on my all-in every single time in a tournament.
8) Getting stuck in key situations where you can not possibly fold, end up having to put your whole stack in there and getting shown some ridiculous hand. Example: late tournament, battle of the blinds, me BB 98 Sb 64 flop 982, me go all-in, 64 call?!?!, turn 6, river 6. Who the hell calls there with that hand???? And then hits, almost always.

I mean, they call big bets with nothing but like 3 outers and then they catch miracles. Who the hell calls a three raise cold with 3-8? And then beats KK with 3-8? Who the hell would want to play 3-8? It makes no sense.

I wish I had a jersey that said "F--- Online Poker"
God is that the most miserable poker experience I ever had.

Please dont call me an idiot. I am merely expressing my feelings about this awful "internet poker" which I think very possibly could be a sham. At the very least, if it is not a sham, it drives me f--- insane everytime I play.

Therefore, in the best interest of my sanity and my bankroll, I shall not every play on the internet again.

Everytime I think of d/l the software again I will think of
this day.

I hate online poker.

I know you guys hate when one of us beginners makes a post like this. I'm sorry. I dont mean to take anything away from what you guys do and if you guys can make money and still ENJOY poker playing online then more power to you.
But I sure as hell cant.

I swear to god I feel like telling the website, "Here, just take it. Spare me the aggravation."

That 6/4 call was unreal? Even if he thought you were a putting a move on what was he thinking? Or was he thinking at all?

You registered two and a half years ago and started posting like two minutes ago?

I thought I was a lurker.

I have some advice from a low limit hold'em player (5-10) who does pretty well.

It is good for beginners or struggling players. Might want to check this out!
