Unbelievable hands as in like I flop the top boat and my opponent draws to a back door straight flush. Something like that

The only way to practice is watch the highest limit poker online or play yourself with real money. But if you really want to play you have to download the software from the poker websites (pokerstars, partypoker, ultimate bet, etc...) Personally I don't trust online poker anymore because I have seen some outrages hands.
In my exprience this is entirely untrue. If you are a beginniner/novice you can absolutely learn tons by playing with fake money. If you go down to 0 you can only restock your chips twice, then you're done for 24 hours.

Also if you make it a personal goal to say.... go from 1,000 in play money on to 100,000 in play money on pokerroom.com...i guarantee you that is no walk in the park. To get over 100,000 in play money on poker room you have to be a pretty good poker player, bottom line.

On Partypoker you can reload unlimited times with Play Money. I have never ever in my life seen anyone play seriously with play money. Maybe if you can reload only twice that might help somewhat, but unless peeople are losing cold hard cash, IMHO, I don't think they give a crap to move all in with 6 all ins in front of them when they have bottom pair. I know I would

I think you can learn more by just watching the highest limits or poker online or on television. Best way to learn, is experience. Losing money and losing more money will force you to learn how to play better poker.

are u calling me out????
pal, u seem to have a short fuse or some sort of personal issue happening there if my brief comment has sparked u off. it seems like i have made a scathing personal attack upon ur good name and u now want to make attacks at me by calling me an idiot and moron.
but hey thats cool, if it makes u happy, u said there were some unbelievable hands being pulled out, i said it happens and made a off colour remark about u being slightly annoyed that it happens, as if partypoker has some sort of dodgy operation going on, and then u get negative.
btw, i dont really have a big mouth, but i am known to tell people what i think straight up. enjoy ur poker experience
