Worst way pokerstars screwed you over

Question

Mine is in a tourney with 1200 people left out of 10000. I had 95% chance of winning two hands in a row but the other guy flopped a straight on the river

Answer 1

PokerStars didn't s***w you, you had a bad beat.

Do you ever watch TV?  WPT or WSOP?  Have you ever seen someone catch runner runner to make a straight or beat 5% odds to win a hand?  Do you think that the dealers at these venues are stacking the deck to create action flops and TV ratings?

In poker you are never as far ahead as you think you are.  What happened to you is annoying, but don't try and pretend that Poker Stars did it just to hurt you.

Poker Stars isn't some tiny company in some third world country.  They are on the Isle of Man right off the coast of Britain.  They don't need to s***w people over to make money.

Answer 2

How would the other guy only have a 5% chance to hit a straight on the river.  Even with a gutshot he would have a 9% chance to hit his hand on the river.  Also, pokerstars didn't s***w you over.  Things like that happen and you have to put them behind you and keep playing your best poker.

Answer 3

C'mon guys... Of course it was pokerstar's fault.  It couldn't possibly be just an unlucky turn of the cards.  Sure, it's called gambling, but that doesn't mean there's any luck involved.

Answer 4

You can't flop a straight on the river....
