u gonna lose that hand 1 out of 3 times.....whats such a big deal about it.....yeah he made a horrible call but that is what u want him to call u with

 

[ThumperDragon]

Gamblings gamblin', bad beats or not, but it does seems more boss cards, more often than not...online that is.

Very frustrating to get that call and lose. Yes that is exactly what you want is a call from that hand, but doesn't change the frustration involved when you get beat by that kind of hand. Hopefully your luck changes a little.
