Default RE:Pokerstars - How many Bad Beats Can You Take?

I used to think the same thing. But, when you factor you are seeing X more hands more per hour than at a casino or home game, you are going to see more of that happening. Considering 2/2 is a coin flip for a/k head's up and 7/7 55-45 over 10/8 off suit, how many hands are really bad beats? People being pot committed or getting good value on their money could just be calling pots that do not seem obvious to call.

Personally I have uninstalled River Stars about 132 times from my cpu, but now just understand how random poker can be and playing online is no different than anywhere else.
