    Unhappy 420 dollar bankroll lost in 1 hand! (rigged?)

    hey guys

    i have been playing poker for 2 years and i play quite well and recently after a small deposit of 20 dollars i managed to build it up to 420 dollars

    i was really happy and decided to play in some cash games to end the day...


    here is what happened on the worst hand of my life


    my hand: QQ
    Opponent: ?


    blinds are 3/6

    i raise to 24 dollars and he calls pre flop

    flop: Q 6 2

    i bet 30 dollars

    he goes all in

    i call obviously...

    he shows AK

    turn: J

    river: 10


    then i start smashing up my computer in frustration!!

    i am seriously wondering if 888poker is a rigged site because surely no one can get that unlucky?


    now i seriously want to continue playing but that was my entire bankroll and i was planning on entering a Major event...


    i'm just so depressed right now...

    Yea that kinda stuff is bullshit.....I don't get why people like that get the wins.

    Not to bring you down or anything but you were playing way out of your bankroll. You should have been sitting with $600 minimum, and you want 20xbuyins $12,000 in this case.

    Thats really rough, and I'll never understand why people would make those dumb calls. But those dumb calls we are supposed to win on in the long run.

    Pretty sure you know this now, but everything lost in one hand is very bad BRM. Good luck on the rebuild?

    These are the best fools to play against that bets off their stack on a draw/complete crap. Only problem is, like me, your luck is always on their side. Play the lower limits so you can afford hits to your bankroll like this.

    Pretty sick, but you really shouldn't dump your whole roll on a table, ever. It's suicide. Even if it's all from $20. You should be playing $25 buy in games, not an entire bankroll dump table.
