I don't mind at all (well I do) when I am beaten when someone has the right odds or is priced in for a call and gets lucky on the turn or river. What I do despise is gatting beat by the turn or river by someone who had no right to be in the pot to start with. When I am ahead pre-flop and on the flop and I get a sick call I have a feeling inside my stomach that I am going to get felted. I almost want to accidentally show the donkey my cards in order for him not to call, but how could i make money if he folds the inferior hand?

The sad part is that it seems to be always the same guy who gets you..

I was playing 1-2 no limit at the casino last weekend and I was up $130 for the 5 hours I had been there. A donkey sits at the table and wipes me out within a half hour. Where are the poker gods????

This is how bad it was...I had J-J and raised $25...Every one folds except the donkey, he flat calls. The flop is: 8-4-2 rainbow. I bet another 25 and he re-raises to 50.
I am liking the situation and I am going to get paid off here wondering what he had called my raise with. I decide to push all my chips in and I get an insta-call along with these words from his mouth "I think you're bluffing". I turn over my jacks and he turns over A-4 off suit. I liked the call of course...but that feeling in my stomach was there...and the turn was a FOUR, no jack on the river...was I steaming or what...Later on I had K-Q of diamonds and put in a min raise and the donkey calls...flop is K-J-10...I bet out only to get re-raised all in. I had him covered so I called without much thought, he turns over a 8-9...only a Q or a 7 can beat me on the turn, here comes the queen...I still have a chance for the boat on the river but the river was a 7...this guy pulled a seven card str8 on me....I was getting sicker....so I left.
