BoDog $10k Guaranteed

Just had a hell of a run come to an end in this thing tonight. 482 players in the tourney, I finished 22nd. Went all in when I had approx $16000k in chips with QQ, got called with AJ off and the guy sucked out an ace, had I won the hand I would have been in 6th place and in great shape for the remainder of the tourney. Oh well, them's the breaks!

thanks guys

i must say, bodog so far seems to be a very fair poker site. i don't see many bad beats at all, more representative to real life I think. I took the one last night, but that chance always is there when your opponent has an over card, its the 4 card flush, straight bs that i can't stand.

Bad Beats are a part of poker, you will see them on every online site as well as in live poker, it happens. The more you play the more you will see.

bad beats are one thing, but ridiculous beats happen way too often on riverstars and other sites.

Totally agree. I moved over to bodog as well. Win $$ all the time playing cash in live casinos, but don't get the same results at stars. However, I do at bodog.

Poker Stars has over 96,000 players at peak times. With that many players on a site getting dealt hands you can see anything.

If you went to a live card room and it had 96,000 players playing in it you would find a few tables that would offer you some real bad beats.

Look at the WSOP events with 2500 players in it you see some sick shit.

Bads beats are just poker, and are a part of the game. Once you learn to expect that, they will not be that bad anymore. But I can promise where ever you play poker they will happen.
