So long as you are getting in with the best hand there is not much you can do on getting out-drawn.

Like every other badbeat, the badbeat bubble seems to happen with and alarmingly high frequency online compared to live play.

Yeah, yeah, it is just my fevered imagination.

Be careful of the words you speaks, keep them soft and sweet. For you never know from day to day which ones, you will have to eat.

All I know is that when I'm the short stack I'm much happier to see my caller flip over 9-3 rather than A-A. Personally I wouldn't call with 9-3 unless I was BB and it was 1 BB or less to call. Even if I am big stack.

Amen Ice

I don't know how many times I have been on either end of that. I would have a much larger bankroll, that's for sure. It hurts just as bad when you get rivered with the big stack or the short one. The short calling all in on a marginal hand I can understand, but the big stack calling with 72os just to try to put the short stack out is just insane

I've often had the same wonder myself. Once I kept track of my river beats and my river victories and it turns out that the river beats only slightly outnumbered my wins. I guess you just remember the beats better.
