I dont believe its rigged ( meanning online poker) against me personally but it is rigged for action and rigged for the worst hand to win. The reason for this to keep the bad players chassing and building pots therefore making more rake for the site. Total B.S. happens all day everyday and i hate the bull

You must be a long term loser ~ rookies like you want to win every hand with AK, AQ or with higher pockets.
Sometimes you win and sometimes you loose. You can protect your bankroll against bad beats with good bankroll management.

It's very basic...

P.S. You can be beaten by AA when you have KK ~ or another example: Daniel Negrenau lost to quad 5s because his opponent (Gus Hansen) hit his 1 out on turn. That was live poker and it's not rigged at all.

I got beaten by a higher straight flush today. and? I still got money ~ I used 1% of my Bankroll - still have money, got over it.

Good Luck and have fun at the tables!

I have seen some awful bad beats live too. You just see more hands online and remember the bad ones as they happen more often in number but on in %

If you play any cash game. You want bad beats. They are an indication that you are playing correctly and if the same situation appears with the same opponent you will always be the favorite. I played my best poker when I was in the middle of a losing streak because I didn't allow myself to tilt and start donking when I suffered bad beats. The swing turned around and I won the showdowns playing the same way. If you get your money in and get the opponents to put their money in when you are ahead you will be the long term winner.

I don't mind the bad beats so much when they are great hands u get beat with. Example if u both go in with pocket pairs like AA against Ks or Qs and the K or the Q hits and u lose ok then too bad but when someone calls ur all in preflop with 92 off and the flop comes 992 or some crap like that then that is what makes u wonder. Even in games where the buy-in or stakes are higher u see plays like that and wonder what the hell is going on huh!
