Big Blinds question? - Online Poker Forum and Casino Community

Why does it seem to favor them more? It seems everytime I go up against someone with a bigger stack than me and I go all in first it always seems to fall into their court. And this is like all the time. Not just once or twice but every dang time. It's like you can't even play hand.

It becomes aggravating sometimes.

I get this sometimes when the bb always seem to call you down no matter what they hold in the hope of hitting the BB special as they call it and 90% of the time they do so... only time the bb special doesnt hit is for me or so it seems.

But i also find that the sites favour the big stacks more in tournaments a lot, it dont matter what cards the big stack has against yr all in they seem to hit hard and knock you out

Yeah, I was playing on Rosso poker just now and I had j/q hit the 3 oak then st8 and the turd gets a a full house on a rat. ARGH!!!!! I hate donkeys. This guy was like raising in every hand and it's too impossible to play when your up against these retards. It's so annoying and I can't see how anyone can stay patient when playing a turd like that.

Dont know why yr playing that site its worst of any site i have ever played at, the skill level is diabolical and they call you down with almost anything at all. The site itself is deader than dead with just a few freerolls and a $2.20 buyin.. Why waste yr time on dead money??

LOL!! Looks like you are calling yourself names since you can make money at a site like that.

But to be truthful about losing hands. You get them on every site where people will call you with anything. The big problem is a losing hand you remember more because of the negative feelings attached to them.

In life we use negative feelings as learning experiences. A bee stings us and it hurts so we try to stay away from an insect more than 1/1000 of our body size. Stay away from a skunk because the smell and so on about other things including poker hands.

By the way can you remember all the good hands, the hands where you have made money sucking out on other people as easily?

Odds are no. I do not care about the winning hands as much either but remember the poker nicknames and cards they played to suck out on me. I also journal my and my opponents play. That way I got records that I can use for next time. MS Excel work wonders for pulling up queries. Believe it or not. Keep sharing and hope you have fun!

Totally agree with Joker, if I am big stacked in BB with a half decent hand when you raise me I will put you allin providing I cant lose more than 1/3 of my stack. Its called Chip Bully, be prepeared to go allin and lose. GL

Geez.... Is it position ... are you reading them wrong? ... EVERY TIME? Thats insane and against all odds. You need to track your play, because everytime is not possible by the law of ODDS, which is how this game is played... My suspicion is that you just remember the bad experiences much more than the good as most people do. Pain is something we are instinctively wired to remember well... much more than pleasure. Safety thing...hehe. We all have frustrating periods in this game, but they should never violate the odds... If they do someone is cheating...

If you are losing to big stack suckouts keep doing what your doing, your time will come. However if your pushing with marginal hands your going to keep getting called by the b stack all the time.
