Why do bad players always insist a Poker client is rigged? I've played 100's of thousands if not a million+ hands on pokerstars. It's not rigged, it makes no sense that it'd be rigged, Pokerstars would have nothing to gain and everything to lose. Just accept that you're bad at poker if you can't win, or that you don't understand variance. There is, therefore, an under-appreciated skill that is largely tournament-specific: adjusting to the preflop viability of those bad hands. In cash games, blinds who are defending figure to have. The bad beats being talked about are hands that the clowns cant even be in due to the bet size and position. This is not about KK v AA this is about a guy flopping AK 3 spades and betting third of his stack with QJ spades to get called by 99 then the turn is 3 and he shoves his nut flush to be called by 99 for all his tournament.
Crushing losses in poker tournaments happen to even the greatest of pros, and that includes Daniel Negreanu.
This week, while playing in a GG Poker World Series of Poker event, he was streaming as he got a Queen and a 10 and decided to raise before the flop as “a little bit of a bluff.”
Then, Yuri Dzivielevski called, and that’s when what would be a disastrous hand would unfold.
Right off the bat, Negreanu landed a straight. Dzivielevski bet, and Negreanu simply called, baiting his opponent into continuing the hand. It’s a smart play here given that he’s got a devastatingly good hand.
Out comes the 3 of spades, the second spade on the board along with a Jack. Dzivielevski shoves all-in, and Negreanu calls with his large stack, finding out that his opponent is holding 6-5 of spades for a flush draw.
All Negreanu needs is for a non-spade to come out on the river. But guess what happens?
