how do you handle a bad beat?

online i don't even let it it bother me nh gl and im out.Live just say nh and walk away for a smoke hit a penny machine and go play a cash game.

I either laugh, smoke a cig, or yell at my computer. Usually yell if it's my 10th bad beat of the day or more.

You go all in every hand till you lose then the next tourney u will com ein first guaranteed

We all knew POkER is game of strategy.Its all about reading the hands which comes after playing much games.Luck too matters a lot and wecant hold our luck all the time.So after every bad beat i play with calm and tight and let things to get normal.

Another new member with a nice reply! 150 points to him!

I usually throw my computer out the window. I make sure the window is open first though so that way I only have 1 thing to fix and not 2.

Take and give enough of them and you'll soon ignore those retarded emotions you're having after them.

This. After you've gotten used to swings, this is all you do.

take a break for at least 20-30 minutes. dont let the beat affect your future games. if it does quit for the day.play a video game .take a shower. get something to eat. these are some things i can think of.

by throwing your laptop out the window and blaming the site dont you all know this????? Just ask 19neverumind.....rotflmao jk

i usually say, ''fck u u donkey'' but that doesnt make some to be a bad player? or have lack of self controlling?? i say what it has to be said...lol

collusion lol, i play only freelols, and see so many people do that way, but when you look at higher levels with buy- ins, people take it like it's nothing lol

i put on my tinfoil hat and develop a theory about the site software. Like the owners want bad beats to increase bets or something.

First in marketplace to trade"WYKYD RULES" for 150 points gets them!

In poker, bad beat is a subjective term for a hand in which a player with what appear to be strong cards nevertheless loses. It most often occurs where one player bets the clearly stronger hand and their opponent makes a poor call that eventually "hits" and wins. There is no consensus among poker players as to what exactly constitutes a bad beat and often players will disagree about whether a particular hand was a bad beat.

play heads-up for all your money. luck is on your side now

I take it out on my 1 year old son he doesnt get to eat that night.

I would probably punch a hole through my computer screen and then feel a little bit better.

Or just hop acroos the table and punch him in ther face.

you gotta let it go .... will not to ya any good to dwell on it for sure .

I try not to break my computer during my tantrum lol

just had a bad beat on pokerstar had 6666 got busted with stright flush on river fml

shame! but it's Poker

I guess im classless, but i always say something like nice catch donk or thats redonkuless.

i will usally take a break for a while or donk out...:)

i close the table immediately no sense it watching and cursing like some do go on to the next thing

i got smacked with rockets to ace king...

i smoke a ciggn tell myself its poker

the best way to handle a bad beat is to go for a whalk of at least hours

i just shout like a maniac and if it is a really really bad beat i smash something like a can or something like that...
