    Default Full Tilt river cards chasers!

    seems the last week on ftp i have had muitible bad beats do to people willing to committ all there chips to hit a magic river card ;( . in the $2.20 sng and $1 ferguson i have had up to 5 river bad beats in one game i take screen shots of them.so my pc is getting quite full now. has anyone else noticed this type of thing ?its allmost like they know what river cards is coming, they have no str8,flush,draw or even a pair, and have hand like K-J and are willing to call bets as big as 3000,3000 then 13,000 chips with out hesition , then hit the magic river its makeing me sick,anyone else noticed this?

    Do you keep your hand histories? Can you show a couple examples?

    It happens to me all the time too, mostly against the big stack. Almost always they catch on the river.

    it's moments like that which cause me to question the integrity of the game and why I even play online....

    let's not forget the fact that you are playing $4 sngs. You cant expect top notch play at that level man.

    Hey, so happy you spoke of this! I know logically that the cards run even. However at FTP, its as if they let me win for a day and then...bang... bad beat after bad beat. ex: all in A10 against A8...guess what 8 on the river...KK against 77..he flops a 7. Now there's something new going on...every time I get a good hand and bet strong guess what...I am against AA...yup, Also, 1 day of good cards, and then 50% of my dealt hands have 2s or 3s in them .... I've counted 50% ! This has occered many times and always follows one day of good luck..
    I originally wanted to ask if anyone out there thinks that these site are fixed...If the cards run even, what is happening to me is impossible because its the same cydrome in a 5 day cycle for the last 6 months.
    I hope someone responds, I am trying hard not to TILT !
    Thanks,
    PN

    Where's the bad beat??? Yea you had KK but are you trying to say every time someone has a pocket pair its a bad beat if they lose??? Hand history is not complete but it looks to me like all of you over played your hands and the A-10 got lucky...

    All in with Ace 10? Very bad play...

    I know...i'll put my tournament life on the life with a medium hand in a coin flip.

    Default not in a vacuum

    You guys are not understanding what I say. You pick the one or two examples I give and tear them down....that's easy. Now, listen...these thing have been happening for 6 months on a regular cycle. As well to say you can't go all in with A10 is wrong as you must see the hand in context...it was correct and I called it correct as he had A8...I was right, it was not a donk move....which by the way I have and still make...but that's not the point. The point is this happens on a regular basis and in a regular cycle for the last 6 months. Every time I get up to $124...boom the bad cycle hits. What I want to knowis if it is happening to anyone else on a regular basis...maybe I'm just paranoid.

    heh i hear you, i don't have the hand history but here is one. .01/.02 table
    hand QQ, i raise to .10, get rereaised to 0.20 everyone folds so i am heads up with raiser, i call
    flop come Q99 full house, i raise to .20 he reraises to .40, i call
    turn 6 he is allin now, i call
    river A
    his cards AA, takes the pot with AAA99

    i say ack, bit of a suckout there
    guy is a professor and tells me how i was dominated preflop, i was outplayed, i am a fish donkey. i said to him you do realize you just caught a 4% draw, he leaves the table. preflop i raise so that money is already gone. 5 limpers plus what i put in, 0.40 in there all i have to call is .10 heads up. 4/1 on money with pocket aces apparently is a bonehead play. made hand against a 2 out draw, and i am the fish.
