Before I get started, let me state that this is not a complaint about bad beats and how rigged anything is. It is just a question with a little frustration.

I have been on a terrible string of luck with PokerStars. I am primarily a tourny player. I think of the last 5 or so tourny's i have played, I have been eliminated in almost all of them by a flush (or a flush has had a major impact in getting me out).

Most recently I was all in and flopped a 2 pair (A's and 5's). The guy that called me had pocket 2's. He ends up beating me with a flush on the river.

I am almost empty on my bankroll and will not be reloading it because:

1. I am just not good enough to be playing online that much

2. The flush beats are killing me

Now, as I said. I understand bad beats are part of the game and am not here to complain about noobs and bad calls. I really was just curious about whether or not other people have seen a lot of flush beats on Stars or is this just a case of bad luck?

It happens to me all the time on UB.I dont know how some of these people make the calls they do.Sometimes i wounder if they can see my cards because thats the only way i would make some of these calls that they make.

Anywhere and everywhere....one card flushes/str8's are not uncommon. Live also..played in a tournament last week caught a K on the flop with AK. Raised 5 BB's pf..had like 12 left so I pushed. Called me with a 64s hit the 6 on the flop and runner runner for a flush. I just sat there wondering wtf just happen? So yes it does happen, more than I care for.

I just keep putting in hands...I can get on a cash table, lose to odd calls for a while. Then itll turn around and Ill get it all back and then some..if not that person another. Granted I do play micros, so odd calls happen a lot.
