  Why do these individuals complain? Well, however, this type of person regular poker players, both offline and online, they've a knowledge of poker that lots of online players dont have. Allow me to try and explain..
  
  In live poker, it's usually your personal money with which you are playing, you often play poker as it is designed to be played, a game of skill as opposed to a game of chance. Just how that you play the cards you're treated varies greatly with regards to the situation you are in. If the game is against people whom you play against regularly, you know their "tells", the way they play and, as a, your game differs to the way you would play, say as an example, in a casino against strangers. In that situation, you need to "read" your competitors, a skill that hardly any players actually master. Your game could be dissimilar to accommodate the unknown facets of one's opponents.
  
  Now to internet poker and why players call "fix" or call other players "donk." Why do these "bad beats" happen? Well, the easy answer that most sites give is "more fingers are performed online" which, needless to say, is extremely true but thats perhaps not the whole or even the primary reason.
  
  Like they are playing a computer game what we get with online poker is really a "simulation" type impact, online poker players play. There is no sense of danger, or anxiety, etc and thats purely due to the computer game result. How computer or arcade driving games are played console, by many of you? And how many of these games drive was played by you who these simulated cars want it doesnt striking partitions, other cars, or people at speeds that in real-life would destroy you or others? Needless to say you do, as the aim would be to have fun, its a its NOT REAL. That mental attitude is taken to internet poker, the skins dont make it any simpler to remove the GAME from the reality. To numerous online people, online poker is a GAME, and not really a game of skill, just a game, a game of chance, a lottery if you'll, and they play online with that attitude.
  
  Then there is the "favourite" or "lucky" hand, the hands that, at sometime in the past, have produced profitable that lives in the memory. Profitable that, nevertheless "lucky" it was, gives the thinking to players that they cant lose with that hand, or that they will win a lot more than they lose by playing that hand. With on-line poker, with so many hands being performed, and so many "simulated" poker players treating poker as a game of chance rather than talent, these "lucky" hands do tend to yield some rather unexpected achievements, but, however, it is still down to chance. Players that forever play 8-3 off suit because they struck the full property in 2001 and won $x with it often forget the relatively difficult beats they get because they play each time to it. "8-3os is my happy hand, I never shed with it", well really, yes you do, and probably significantly more than you win, but when you do win it is often a big pot and the beats are forgotten again.
  
  Online poker players do not have the capacity to look into the eyes of the guy thats just raised them to 20 x BB, they dont have the chance to see him prepared them to call his AA using their "lucky" hand, they play poker like a game, period. That mentality, along with some wonderful luck, (in some cases), gives a sense to those same participants of invulnerability, exactly like playing a pc game. Visit free beats to research why to study it.
  
  How do we resolve it? Essentially, you cannot! Not now, not ever. Why? Since online poker is just a different game to call home poker, with different skills required. Sure, you may be in a position to inform the odd "donkey" that Ace-rag isn't a great hand, but in many cases you'll hear the "It is my happy hand" excuse.
  
  Real-life people, (oops, did I say that?), have to change their games to accommodate the differences in internet poker. I have a tendency to play a much stronger game online than in live games. It does not do me much good as it usually means the "bad beats" I suffer are far more clear, and expensive, than those that I suffer in play. I have more success online by playing a tight game than I would playing a "normal" or "loose" game, and I do win much more than I lose, it does not alter the total amount of "bad beats" or "donks" that I experience though, it only means that I tend to be more of a spectator when the bad beats are happening than a target.
  
  Quite simply, stop crying, stop moaning, play your personal game, but change the conditions to be suited by it, and HAVE A GREAT TIME. In the end, Poker is really a GAME, and online that reality is therefore much harsher than in live play. Most of all, online you need lots, luck and lots of luck, I wish you the top, (except when you play me).
