			Thats a tough one. I experience it almost every day on PP but it always evens out in the end   so its all good.

			wow. i know it happens all the time, but what could that person have possibly been thinking. usually i can at least get an idea of what the other peson might have been thinking about, but postflop i see virtually no way to call that hand.  tough luck. im sure that person paid you off later though. |

			Terrible.  I've gotten really bad beats lately - usually at the Jackpot tables, because people will stay in with ANYTHING.  And, people do hit their 2-3 outers - who knows what they are thinking. Here's one from last night. JJ/button. Pre-flop raise in a SnG 4x BB, BB calls w/ Q2o, hits his Q on the river. Board was all low-cards, and I was pounding. Terrible.

			Boy oh boy do I hate JJ.  12 cards to hit the flop and kill them.  I absolutely never win with this hand, so unless I hit trips, I'm likely out before the hands are shown.

			Yesterday, in a $.5-$1 NL HE game, my pocket Qs were taken down by someone holding J10 suited after calling my pre-flop raise to $10 and my turn bet of $10.  Reloaded and won it back with pocket As later on.

|  Jacks - the hardest hand of all? 
			
			Anybody read Jackpot Jay on ESPN.com? I'm not a big fan, but thought his comments on pocket Jacks were interesting. He writes ... The hardest hand for me to play with any comfort is J-J. No move really makes any sense. A small raise is probably the worst play. If you get any callers and overcards come on the flop, you are probably in trouble and definitely feeling insecure. A large raise, designed to win the pot right then and there, might work -- but if that's your philosophy, why not make a large raise with any two cards and try to win the pot right then and there? What are you really hoping for? That a guy with 10-10 will call? The safest and most logical play is to treat J-J like a small pair -- try to see the flop as cheaply as possible, and hope you flop a set. This doesn't seem quite right to me, either, because J-J is the fifth-best starting hand you can have; and it seems, logically, like you should be able to do more with it than with, say, 3-3. |

			All I can think of is that he was planning on trying to bluff you off the pot if a heart came...and when he hit his pair on the turn he was just sucked in even more....cant get too pissed though, guys like that you rich over time
