It's like crazy every time I get KK someone always have f**king AA, how often it happens is just unbelievable to the point where when I get KK I almost immediately expect to lose another buy in. Oh and when I get AQ someone always have AK and flop always come A high like 98% of time just ridiculous. I couldn't even get it in ahead with combo str8 flush draw like the other player will always have A high flush draw like how often these cooler happen just extremely unlucky to me like the deck is rigged to give me the wrong side of cooler every f**king hand. When I finally ahead when all in OMG it ALWAYS ended in another bad beat. BTW when I miss flop, the turn and river will drop some random card that improves my hand to another 2nd best hand and lose more OMG just give me a break and let me miss. Is it for real like it is impossible to win this game.

Obviously open fold KK every time you get it.

Oh yeah. Definitely. For sure I agree 100%. That really sucks OP but you’ll get em next time.

Look at the situation:

I'll give you my own. In the past 4 days I had KK busted about 4 times. I busted it 2 times. . . My most profitable hand was a 7-5 suited that I was allowed to limp where guy flopped a set of Kings. Honestly when you throw out a big raise that's not big enough people are looking to Set Bomb you. They're looking to draw on you with Straight-Flush Draws. When 2 or 3 Callers come into a Pot KK is probably at best favored a few % and well honestly I wanted to know is on-line Poker on the site I was playing rigged so I ran 17 thousand hands. Yes I did this... If I had a license with that Software I'd of run 30 thousand hands.

AA won over 90% of the time(of course I generally raise heavily with my pocket pairs which is predictably going to get me a lot of folds)

KK was Profitable in the Long run and every other pocket pair down to I believe 2s. I think 2s were and 3s were on the edge of not profitable(look 2 week journey to 5-10 NL journey) that I honestly couldn't keep up with.

Aces get busted, Kings get busted. Play em 150 times, or 500 times and they will bust less often. Lower your Limit to micro stakes and see the results in a HUD/Spreadsheet that's practically free. You are not losing with these hands unless you're limping with them and trying to get clever.

NOW! If you're playing High Stakes Poker well, that's entirely different and well, yanno what good luck next time. I went on a Poker Boat and played 2/5 NL and left with like $0 cause of the taxi and dinner and on that Boat that night I got 4-5 to Pocket Pairs.(Aces, Kings, Queens multiple times with Sets and you name it) Nobody called my Nitty Plays... I was a baby back then didn't know you gotta trap people, I expected them to be like on-line players LOL


I am a mediocre Poker Player(A Fish) cause I'm not quite healthy enough to play(and get overly emotional) but you wanted an answer to why you get busted. We all get busted ... Last night I had $25 bucks on KK and guess what, 3-bet 4-bet, yep I felt he had the Aces and he did. Maybe you can fold KK sometimes when they 4-bet you? Some Professionals MAY advocate this?

It's hard to win in poker even with Pocket Pairs.

even AA will lose 20% of the time so when you get big pairs pre flop you should fold once in a while using a randomizer

I **** so often

Negativity bias

Len Bias

lol I just busted the first hand of a 5.50 PKO tournament with AA against QJ, so don't feel too bad.

will you recover?

Just had A high flush busted by a straight flush in a cash game. . . What are the chances of that? 72,192-to-1 odds against from 5 random cards Love Poker

Random cards are the only cards I play!

Just binked one. He flopped a flush i rivered runner runner boat lol. Board paired turn and I hit my set on river.

4th win this week. 14th of month.

Positive thoughts, mates. That’s the key.

holy **** are you okay?

Have you tried…being gooder?

It's like my World of Warships teams. Below 48% WR is considered below average, 49% Average to about 51%, I sit at Average. Good is 53%-58%

60% is Unicum(great) 65plus(Is God Super Unicum) Single Man non div if you are winning Sixty Five Percent you are not average. Probably 1% of players fall into this category. Some even make a living off that but they have to have personality with it...

Honestly the only people that get into the Super Unicum Brackets Solo Play study like mad, they know stuff about the game I can't fathom. When I put in a 110% I get push 55% but honestly I have to say Have Fun screw spending 8 hours a day playing a Video Game even if a guy I know bought a house off it and makes 30k-40k a year playing a video game LOL

I have to imagine the same Applies to Poker if you Study like a Zen Master, put in the time, energy(have it) and the discipline one day you can make some money off it and bad beats are well part of it. I watched a Guy last night who is a Professional and it took him 8 or 9 months to break even on 10 NL YES 10 NL... His friend went nearly made at 10 NL just trying to make a BR Goal. I assume that Poker is a ton harder than other games? I have had plenty of Sun Runs making 20 times my initial Buy In in my life. Cooler'd a dozen guys and other times busted before I had any real fun. People have to get busted a couple hundred times to learn to cope with the Swings I think. Understand that AA is 80% favored heads up in most cases all-in pre flop... Not post flop

Virtually no Luck involved in a purely skill based game(tiny bit of RNG) don't play poker play video games, study like a Zen Master and you will maybe 1 of 10 guys that makes a living off it. That or have a great voice or be a programmer

Yeah that makes sense. I feel ya and totally agree. Especially on those last few points.

This is gonna blow your mind: KK, QQ, JJ, AQo, AJo, ATo are pretty bad hands in short handed cash games.

You'd rather have JTs most of the time.

I would rather have blowjobs than JTs and I don’t even know what JTS’s are.

But I still choose blowjobs.

This dudes over here whining about losing when he has 20-30% equity and I'm in the PLO streets losing as an 88% or greater favorite......

Did you tell him?

No, did you?

JTS = Jewish Twin Sloppy. You can order it to your hotel room in Vegas

Somebody should tell him about this.

Since this thread is pretty useless and a waste of time anyway, I am going to nit it up with technicalities.

AA only loses 20% of the time when stacks are gotten in preflop. Heads up you should win with it more often than 80% if stacks do not go in pre. (You should beat hands like 44 where a 4 theoretically comes on the river). That needs to be balanced against the fact that AA is less than 80% if it is a multi-way pot. In fact, can win less than 50% of the time when stacks go in preflop if there are enough players in the pot.******


****** However that does not mean AA can ever be -EV because the more people preflop increase the size of the pot so even if AA is only 40% against the field preflop, the size of the pot will more than make up the difference. This note is solely for a player named Rick who I used to play with who argued for folding AA preflop if there were too many players already all in since you weren't favored (I.E. over 50% to win).

Anyway, sorry for wasting everyone's time, but that is what you get for reading threads like this.

just gotta play more, reduce the variance
