Bad beat blogs are getting kind of boring and annoying to read. Well not exactly, when people post a blog occasionally showing off the horrible call and suck-out of an opponent I'm fine with that. The people who say a certain site is rigged is what is annoying. What some people just can't get in their head is that even 90% doesn't win all of the time. It will lose 1 out of 10 hands. Getting in with 70% will lose 3 out of 10 hands which when you think about it is a lot. If you end up all in 4 times in a tournament with 90%, 85%, 80%, and 70% you only have a 42.84% chance of winning all of those and those are some pretty high percentages.

So we should only speak of wins? Bad beats happen 10 to 1 over wins, so the abundance would be so regarding blogs.
I believe if I don't want to see a "whiner" blog, I skip it. But this it their poker site as well and should be able to blog their losses freely.
I've seen good advice comments on these bad beat blogs, find it useful sometimes.

what ever, like he said don't read them. what i dont get, why even right them because they are anoying and nobody cares
Just my opinion, but we are a poker forum???? we like to vent, support, and bust each oter chops from time to time about poker stuff. Plus, if you pay attention, you can learn from others mistakes and "Bad Beats" But like I said, just my humble opinion.
be safe / be well

Also I never said I don't enjoy reading them. I especially enjoy them when the writer thinks they got a bad beat when they had like 60%. Its funny.
