Got kings cracked yesterday in a game of texas holdem, by a guy that kept 2 3 suited.

It was pretty deep into the game and I got pocket kings. The blinds were 200 400 up from 5-10. He limped in and I raised 800 over the blind. A king was the first on the river. I raised again. He called,agian. The river comes a spade of course and he checks. I go all in and he calls with 2-3 suited and of course he has a flush. I wanted to focking strangle him. I really don't mind getting beat by a better hand but there is no way he should have called the blind let alone the raises looking for a spade. It was only a $20 game but jeebus thats just bad poker. And of course he did not win the game. He walked into someones pocket aces and got busted. I just felt like ranting.

Sucks to lose with trips, but a suited 2 3 isn't a bad starting hand. There's a lot of outs and if you do catch something the pot piles up quicker cause nobody expects you to have anything.

Suited connectors are an ok thing to play when you don't have to commit 1,200 chips just to see the flop. Then another 800 to see the turn and at that point he was going on just a flush as there was no straight draw out there.

Bad beat. I'd be pissed too. Invite that guy back and tell him to bring friends. If he keeps tryin to draw out like that you'll get your revenge and then some.

I have broke him before and I know he plays shit cards but that blindsided me. Which is just what he wants when he plays cards like that. He also owns his own business so he has some expendable cash. I was sponsered into the game and had to give my sponser half of anything I win. I have been on a roll as of late and the only way I have been loosing is to a bad beat. I won 2 games last week and got knocked out of a 3rd by KK vs my AA. He tripped on the river.

If he plays shit cards then you'll always beat him in the long run. Most of the time he won't get his draw, and when he does, you should only have lost a portion of what he's already lost to you. But yeah it sucks to get a good hand beat like that. Have a beer.

Yeah, I hate when a bad beat comes along like that. I bought into a game last night, at a friend's house. I made it into heads up, but got beat. The other guy had a dominating chip lead and I was about to be blinded out, so I went all in with K/10 and got beat by a pair of 9s.

Sometimes when I'm playing poker, after a long night I decide to just start playing terrible hands because I'm bored of it already.
The most money I ever won on a single hand of hold-em' I went in with a 7-2 off-suit and I got the two other guys still at the table to go all in. I ended up with a full house and cleaned them out.
Sorry about what happened to you tho kilroy69.
Often I find, that no matter how good you are at playing, dumb luck is what decides the final outcome.

Same here, blissed. And Kilroy, the same exact thing happened to me last weekend. I thought the trip kings would get it The kid lost eventually since the pot he won was huge and he started overbetting.

I don't mean to be a dick but that's poker. It might have been a shit call but he won so that makes it not a shit call.
If the game was whoever had the best hole cards it would be called something else.
"War," now that I think about it.
