I think a lot of it is frustration. You play perfectly and some clown gets lucky. Poker isn't about being lucky, it's about having better strategy. When that fails, someone is gonna get called an SOB. Plain and simple.

When I get ko'd I just say nh every time.it's become automatic.
the cry babies tend to be quite entertaining especially when you get two or three at the same table... but if we are discussing freerolls here then nobody has any reason to feel aggrieved when they are playing with the poker room's money.

The way the hand played out what this......He had AA I had KK and a K came on the flop.

He basically went on by saying how bad of a player I was and how I need to learn the game...blah, blah, blah....I just laughed and said better luck next time.

But if he had kk he's the hero....no cards are a sure thing until the river is shown....Just make sure you thank him for his donation-lol..

Hey John, The guy called you a donk calling with KK??

I'll take the KK every hand and be a donk all day! Worst hand I ever lost with winner goes to Vegas with 7 of us left. This guy goes all in with 2,7off and I had AA. He catches 4 hearts and gets a flush with a 2 h. But it was the cards that hand like timeflight says, its gambling. Remember its not the best 2 cards in your hand but the best 5 out of 7 you make with the cards. Plus that guy lost too!

LOL...I play at numerous sites and you correct...This happens all the time. Hard to believe that its usually a freeroll. You would think that people have their homes on the line the way they act sometimes.

That happens to me all time. I play some freerolls and only a few step for winning some money after 2-3 hour and someone got all my chips so that's sad for me so i never go all-in if i also have AA or KK i can bet mostly pot maybe less to keep my chip i dont know is it good idea or not.

Cengo, there is a saying the pros are fond of, if you are not prepared to lose then you are not prepared to win. By all means play safe, it is what I do too, but at the same time there are times when you just have to take a risk. The best you can do is try to make those risks the ones when the odds are in your favour.
