My pokerstars name is TrentCole1 if anyone is interested in playing. Usually play daily from 9-10 or 10-11 PM. NOt tonight though, as I'm heading east on the AC expressway to play a little cash game and join the midnight madness tournament again. Came in 11th out of 123 last night, but only the top 9 cashed. I'd rather lose in the first hour than last until 4:30 for squadoosh. I was heated, and rightfully so. Had this drunk know nothing dominated, as he pushed with A 2 offsuit, I had A 10 suited. Flop came 2 5 9, I knew I was dunzo.
It really felt good that all the players at my table came over to me to shake my hand, telling me it was a bad beat. I was on top of my game last night, more than I've ever been. It was nice to see the Taj regulars realize that. Hence, another try tonight, lol.... TAJ + BOrgata = East Coast Poker Mecca

My opinion on online poker being rigged for big pots and crazy results is mixed. Obviously it is very possible, and I think one has to realize that you see more hands per hour online then live (my guess is 5-7 times more). When I am watching my friends I should start keeping track of how many hands they play and how many 'runner-runner' turn outs there are. I think all poker players can handle getting rivered when the outs are available, but the runner runner result is what gets people pretty pissed. They happen but not with the percieved reality online

Online, different bowl of wax. And I definitely agree with you about players accepting the river beats when facing multiple outs. Phil Hellmuth being the exception.

I sat and played with Young Phan(http://www.worldseriesofpoker.com/pl...gecolor=FFFFFF) and bluffed the living **** out of him. It was a great experience and I am trying to figure out a way to sit again because if you hit two hands early, you can COAST. I lasted 8 hours and I took a REAL bad beat when I had TT and another had JJ, I overplayed them pretty bad

What about the runner/runner that beat me last week when I was in the final 3?? I think you got more pissed than me.
