There were so many hands which I thought I had won for sure, and then come somes bum or other or throws down a set of cards, and you are screwed! That's just how the game seems to work sometimes lol</description><pubDate>Fri, 30 May 2008 04:34:06 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>TheMoneyMan</dc:creator></item><item><title>RE: Online Play Frustration</title><link>http://www.gambling.com/forum/Topic4074-35-1.aspx</link><description>I would double check your strategy as well. It seems odd that junk hands are winning against what should be better hands. Perhaps contact the site with a couple scenarios you've had issues with and see if they can explain it to you?</description><pubDate>Wed, 23 Apr 2008 16:51:40 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>honeybun</dc:creator></item><item><title>RE: Online Play Frustration</title><link>http://www.gambling.com/forum/Topic4074-35-1.aspx</link><description>First, if the people with "junk hands" are always beating you I would go back and make sure you've got your strategy correct. Occasionally something that looks like junk really isn't. But assuming you are correct, it could be that you are just having a string of bad luck. Or, you are only remembering when junk hands win, and not the hundreds of junk hands that went before that didn't win. &lt;br&gt;At the same time... I sure hate it when that happens.  You've got an almost certain winning hand and get beat by someone getting lucky!&lt;br&gt;Arggggg!</description><pubDate>Tue, 22 Apr 2008 22:07:13 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>paytheline11</dc:creator></item><item><title>Online Play Frustration</title><link>http://www.gambling.com/forum/Topic4074-35-1.aspx</link><description>I do love to play Texas Hold'em but lately find myself very frustrated playing online. So many times I bet with what should be a winning hand and someone hits the river with a straight that was holding 2 junk cards. I really wish I knew of a place close by where I could play a real game and not have to play online. I've read a few books on this incredible game and they are little help with online play because of the way the game is played. People will go all-in with absolutely nothing! It is enough to make you want to bang your head against the wall (or your monitor). &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Does anyone have any insight as to why the online games most always favors the guy with junk? &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I guess I need to work on my patience more than anything!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;L2P</description><pubDate>Sun, 06 Apr 2008 18:12:35 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>Loves2Play</dc:creator></item></channel></rss>
