I've never played in a real casino - except one time in Reno where I lost my stake without winning a single hand. When you say you feel the bad beats online seem more frequent than in a casino do you mean in tournaments or in cash game play?

I do feel your pain - I lost an all-in AA to a QQ on the river to take me out tonight. Last night I had an even worse one - AA vs 44 and by the time it got to the river I had four spades so the only card that could beat me was the 4d - of course that was the next card and out I went.
