Bad Beats

actually i hit the 5 on the flop. which was the plan either the 5 or the 2 or both ( which happens and is very nice when you bet big after the flop against some joker holding AK or AA or whatever and they realize are cooked… cause they missed the flop ( which was the point ya know) … the one in 16 caught me. ( he had a pair in the hole JJ ) if he had one jack then he’d have to hit the the 6 or the 8 to BEAT THE TWO PAIR I HAVE THE 55 AND 22…yes, its ballsy. yes its not an everyday play. but if you know when to delploy it- you can reak havoc on folks and mess with their little heads for a while…AGAIN THE odds of hitting one of the jacks on the river with only 2 remaining is what replay needs to fix on the site… along with other anomilies… like true poker odds the “replay flush” I had an AK vs KT and lost to a straight… the flop was very “replay biased” if you. follow my reasoning… another discussion… you have to be able to use poker odds to play this game if replay ignores TRUE POKER ODDS … what do you have here?.. you tell me its very interesting how miracle river cards show up all the fn time here… that mysterious flush or mysterious straight. YES it happens HOWEVER not as much as it does here. sorry but i know better

You’re trolling right? You 4-bet with a hand that’s a pure fold, was behind the whole way with no-redraw, and you’re upset about a flush coming in that made no difference?

You haven’t said how much it does or should happen yet, so you appear to know less than… what was that river card again… Jack.

But it’s not an anomaly…it’s poker. In real life, I’ve had many a hand ruined by the river. I’ve also had hands that turned awesome on the river.

On Replay Poker, it’s pretty much the same. The main difference on Replay Poker is that people bet differently to the real life games I play, because the chips are free. I try out all sorts of silly strategies on Replay, just for the fun of it.
But to say Replay is rigged due to a bad beat, seems more like sore loser syndrome.

Here’s a bad beat (from a real life game):
I get dealt KcQc.
Some players fold preflop, 3 of us still in.
Flop comes out 9c 8c 4c
I go all-in. The other 2 remaining players go all-in as well.
Player A has AcKs.
Player B has 6c7c.
Looking good for me, as long as another club doesn’t come out.
Turn is 4d. Still good for me.
Final card is tc.
I had best hand on the flop. Now I have worst hand. Player B takes all, and we just had to laugh at how crazy it was.

But that’s just poker.

It happens… one hand (real life) I was dealt KK. I raised pre-flop. One caller. Flop comes out 997. I check. she went all-in. I decided to fold… and she showed that she had 99.
One of the best folds I ever did!

Another real-life hand… first hand of a tournament with 300+ players.
I get dealt AQ.
Flop comes out as AQ and something else.
I was so stoked with top 2 pair, that when one guy kept calling me, and then raised big on the river, I thought he was bluffing.
That’s the only time I’ve ever seen a Royal Flush… and it wasn’t mine! Lost half my starting stack.

That’s the nature of poker.

That’s amazing.

PS: No-one should replay the hand in that thread. It’s hilarious, but also so bad you will get worse at poker just from watching it.

If you read the thread you do so at your own risk as it may dumb you down a couple of points but I do think its an entertaining read. It’s funny as all hell but frustrating in equal part. It is like trying to explain the globe to an angry flat earth believer.

No, you miss the point. You failed to range analyze your opponent. You simply assumed that he had and would continue to whiff his high cards. That is extremely careless play.

You also have a complete lack of pot control and bankroll management. In short you are a completely inexperienced gambler.

First, you can be as rude as you like to me, IDGAF. All that I can say to that is that you are damn buttlucky that this is a family friendly site because on any other site if you got into an insult war with me you would lose so bloody hard the entire forum would be laughing at how I embarrass you and giving me high fives. You have no idea who you are talking to.

Second, how DARE you speak the name Doyle Brunson with your attitude. King Doyle is a very respectful player and would be appalled by your behavior here. You are basically spitting on Texas Dolly by carrying his picture as your avatar.

Now, onto your post. You are right, my little brain was thinking this hand over while at work today and I realized that I made an error in my analysis. I had way overanalyzed this hand. This is what happened in this hand.

Two very bad players were mindlessly flinging chips around because neither of them had any interest whatsoever in wht their opponent had. One of you was thinking “I have an overpair, I’m good here,” and the other was thinking “I have 2 pair on the turn, I’m good here,” and THAT’s IT. This is classic rank amateur play. The two of you butchered the hell out of this hand because you have no clue how to play this game.

Now I have to give Villain credit, at least he had a prime hand and knew it, and took an overpair to showdown. His bet sizing was even sensible pre and on flop. You on the other hand limp-called garbage, and then started throwing senseless piles of chips around that you could not afford, long before you hit your 2-pair. You had absolutely no clue what you were doing. I can’t say that Villain played this hand great, but he definitely played it better than you did. I won;t speak for everyone else here, but I don’t think you’ll find anyone on this forum who will disagree with what I just said, and most of them are far more experienced and better that I am and they all have WAY more chips here than you do.

So your ‘plan’ was to hit something knowing that your opponent WILL whiff. uhh, okay. pfft

This is getting better and better.

Okay, play that spot against him the same 16 times and see how many chips you win. : P

But he DOESN’T need a J only. Many of us have pointed this out to you several times yet you ignore this. There are also 3 8s and 3 6s for him, and even then, since he can’t put you on 2-pair, he feels that his overpair beats any pair you have. So long as you don’t have straight he’s in good shape here since flush dies on that turn. And you don’t have one damn care in the world that he is calling your crazy wild maniac bets and jamming river because he has 97! 97 doesn’t really fit his 3x pre, but all the rest of the streets 97 fits the story perfectly. Do you care about your chips at all?

But when he opens 3x to your UtG limp he’s waaay ahead of 52s. Like MILES ahead, like you need binoculars at this point. You don’t understand this. I’m always a fan of sneaky strats like that but pick your spots. In this particular spot when Villain’s range is crushing your garbage hand, that is a BAD time to use that strat. Very bad. Normally I don’t like to use blunt language that might insult someone but since you are so arrogant and rude and full of bs I don;t have a problem saying that was an effing stoopid strategy. In fact I wish I could cuss you out and really insult you, like Jimmy Carr style because right now you are an easy target who deserves it after soiling Doyle Brunson’s name.

You were straight up buttlucky to turn 2 pair. You played this extremely badly.

You want a proper suckout strat? Limp your garbage late after everyone else limps. Check-fold if you whiff or hit soft, and value bet if you hit good. Do NOT limp tyour garbage UtG and if you are dumb enough to limp garbage UtG absolutely do NOT call a 3x opening. Holy fish, Batman.

See ya later, and don’t let the the door pinch your fins on the way out.

Want to see worse? In the 250k buy in 7.5 mil GTD PKO, a fish called my TT, cut off, 10 bb raise to 400 over the 4,5,6,7 40 chip limp ins, with J7 suited, on the BB. Flop was Qxx, clubs with my having the T high flush draw. He checks, I cbet half pot, he calls. I put him on bottom to mid pair lower then my TT, with a gutshot straight draw or flush draw, or Q2 at worst. He was also ranked 22,000 so that and his BB call preflop, and check call postflop, about 75% that he does not have a Q. He had a J high flush draw.

Turn came a 7, giving him bottom pair plus flush draw, with a 16.5% chance to win. I shoved all in full pot to 1.5 x times pot, about 1700, where he only has 1.25 to 1 piss poor pot odds, on piss poor 16.5% to win, and he calls, and sucks out a 7 on river.

That’s a way worse, terrible play, bad beat then OP’s bad play, etc.


LOL… I BET germain06 he folded and then got beat with the “Replay Flush”… i guess it must hear me truthin…

so what was puchis42 supposed to do? not call 100 with a nut flush draw? then not call you with the nut flush? not bet 3,900 on the river with the nut flush? matter of fact, he should had folded. lol

great play by puchis42. only thing he messed up on is not taking all your chips by gong all in

You flat call 2-pair on a board with a ton of draws available, and then overbet huge when the flush comes in? Are you having a competition to see who can post the hand where you played the worst?

@feelmysins is still winning, but only just.

He has KK, the flop is 3A3. Never mind the paired flop. He’s behind Ax here and gets into a min raise bidding war multiway. Totally careless. Once again it’s “I have kings here, I’m good to showdown, Villain’s hand doesn’t matter.” This flop is GROSS. This might be the worst possible flop for KK. It’s certainly right up there. And what is hero thinking? “Sweet, 2-pair, invincible!” Say it with me … rank … amateur.

Do I want to know?

I was talking about the same hand: Hand #796706545 · Replay Poker

I guess technically LostHwy posted it originally, but I’m still giving credit to feelmysins

(((Cringe, Facepalm, lol, LMAO)))

Dude you flat called 100? Way the Hell bad. At least 1 of the other 2 players extremely likely has either a gutshot straight draw, or open ended straight draw or flush draw, or combo gutshot draw + flush draw + a A, etc. There is about a 20% to 40% chance that either the turn will hit 1 of the other 2 players on a draw and that you beat by a straight or flush, or if they not on a draw, your semi likely to run into 3,4 card possible straights, 3,4 card flush draws by turn, river that can bluff you out, if they dont have straights and flushes, if you DONT BET SEMI BIG.

And if you call, and you did TERRIBLY BAD CALL on a likely 3,4 card straight or 3,4 card flush, etc, on 2 pair, in order to not be bluffed out, etc, thats even more horribly BAD.

You should be reraising to about, between about 2/3 pot to 3/4 pot to 4/5 pot to pot to 1.5 x times pot, in order to 1. Extract Value. 2. Deny Equity Improvement, semi protect hand. 3. Make draws pay too much to call.

A3 Diamond nut flush draw is getting about 4,5,6,7 to 1 pot odds depending on size of pot, and only has to call a extremely cheap 100 chips. And has awseome implied odds if hits a 3 card flush. And another player could hit a weaker flush, and so A nut flush draw might overflush a weaker flush.

This is about as awesome as its going to get for a A high nut flush draw. If the A high nut flush draw folded to your bet, it would be a candidate for worst fold ever.

The only way a A high nut flush draw call becomes bad is if you make the draw pay semi way to much to call and they still bad call, chase. Thats not the situation in your hand, you priced the draws in extremely good, so of course they should make a good call and goodly, rightly call the bad bet, and your bad flat call of the bad 100 chip bet.

You couldnt possibly have played it any worse then how extremely bad uyou played it. And the A high nut flush draw couldnt have played it any better then they did play it postflop, and played it awesomely postflop.

Your the biggest fish, semi Donk, and your rude, etc.

Just please quit digging yourself a bigger hole in play, in this thread, on the forums, etc.
