Question:    How should I handle bad beats, when players playing poorly against me are able to beat me?

Answer:    In a game of poker, if a player plays poorly against you and still beats you, then it’s a tough situation for you because in both pot-limit and no-limit, one big pot tends to decide your session. Sometimes, a run of bad luck could worsen your gaming strategies. Therefore, you need to control your emotions and don’t let it ruin your game. It might be a good idea to take a break for a while, until you can go back to the Poker table with a positive attitude. If you want to play a good Poker game, then you have to stop expecting bad beats. A good Online Poker player should possess the ability to withstand these fluctuations as it can happen quite often in Poker. After all, ‘luck’ does play a role in poker, however small it may be.
