1-2 nl game is hard to beat

I'm playing 1-2 nl and let me tell you about a bad beat that relates with how hard is to play this game for profit.I had pocket kings and raise to $20 in 5th position, nobody calls so i won $3.later with pocket AA raise to 7 and got two callers, in a flop with small cards went all in and won a pot $27.Finally my end came when with pocket Qs I raise to $20 because on my left was a very loose player that goes for every flush or straight draw all the time so I want him out but he calls and other player too so the pot is already $65, the flop is 892 with 2 spades and tryng to make this chaser py for the draw went all in for $85,they both call me and one has 65spades and the other 910 open ended the turn is a spade and river a blank and i lost broke.Is this a fair game or just a gambling experience?

live poker is most definitly rigged

Is a 10bb raise from early pos really a good move without any action before you? :/

For those who want to back him

I like games where people fold when they should.

Please tell me you stayed around for 20 minutes berating them for ruining an otherwise good game.

That's probably the worst beat I've ever heard of.

You had a bad flop and got all your money into a multi-way pot with what turned out to be the worst of it.

You were -EV in a 3-way pot, as you can see above, and only slightly ahead in a heads up vs the GSSFD, as shown below.

6s 5s 473 47.78 517 52.22 0 0.00 0.478

So, even heads up, the 6s 5s dude was right to call $85 to win $150 (1.76:1) with a 47.78% chance to win, and the the T9 guy is just silly.

In any event, just rebuy. This really wasn't such a bad beat, just a bad flop, a big pot, and relatively short stacks. I don't think you played badly, but you really don't have anything to complain about.
