I DON'T CARE!!!!!

So it all folds round to me in the SB and i look down and see  , i raise BB moves allin i call, he has  .........................

NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

I am sick of the proliferation (!) of bad beat stories on here.
They come in many guises, dressed up in many ways but ultimately the same s**t, boring, dull, uninteresting, tedious drivel.
The fact is we all get them, we all will get them, we all hate them and the majority of sane people do not want to hear them.
I have seen them as hand analysis "could i (we, you, anyone) get away from this?", as jokes "i think this is funny", as rants "look was this moron called with", as sympathy seeking "THIS IS SICK" and worst of all as "guess what he had".

The 50p fine isn't working, something needs to be done.

Bad Beat Mod Police needed

It's a pain in the arse that people only post bad beats to get an "aww how unlucky" response on the hand history forum.
Poke em in the eye with a needle...failing that..kill 'em.

Oh and before Matt datamines it i have posted a total of 2 bad beats (to my knowledge), one was in a BB thread.
It's ok though i stabbed myself in the eye.

Personally, I don't think they are anything to do with the mods, and shouldn't involve anything like suspensions or indeed most of the options above

I suppose a note from the poster in the title letting people know what is coming might be an aid to people who don't want to read them...

Ahhhhh but you have said many times in the past that you read every post (or a mod does) on the forum, it would only take a sec to add to the title.

[TightEnd]

Well I think its up to the poster if he or she wishes to do so.

Personally, I don't see the mods getting involved in this at all, even if we try to read every post (getting more difficult obviously due to volume of posts/size of membership of forum).

Before i do what now? 

my views on bad beat posts

well maybe its time for a bad beat subforum on here? mods?

i disagree, i think a bad beat subforum would be a bad idea because basically, putting it politely as possible - no one really gives a f***

We all suffer them, its one of the major disadvantages of constantly getting your money in with the best hand. So instead of blaming the site/the rng/the other players/the full moon just dust yourself down and start again.

Yes it sucks but 88% of the time you are sat there with all your opponents chips - this just happens to be one of the twelve times in a hundred that he gets lucky against you. congratulate your opponent, make a record of the move in his notes and look out for him in future games.

I am not bothered by bad beats, I have had them like everyone else, but I have also inflicted them on others as well.  I tend not to read bad beats posted on forums, magazines, etc. They are a fact of playing poker, it is gonna happen and they should just be shrugged off as part and parcel of the game .

FLUSHY AND MFI FOR BAD BEAT MODS

[mex]

but some genuinly do need discussing, some people post em as a beat then through the anylisis we see they played the hand wrong or why do we think the guy played the hand is it something we did wrong leading up to the hand. I thought this was a poker forum after all.
Funny how the longest threads usually start with welcome to new member, Poledancegrrrl2,(or similar, btw hot girls do not use such names only deluded ones do) followed by 26 pages of hi's and smileys, i see no one rushing to ban these?

Blatent nonbad beats like the AA V 34 preflop for example, don't have a place here, just politley inform them so. As for a bad beat that you think was something you did wrong somewhere and need help then i think post em
