To encounter bad luck
Hax means to experience bad luck. It is a gaming term that refers to a highly unlikely event that occurs and alters the outcome of a match in the opponent's favor.
The term is commonly used in Pokémon matches when one player seeming has the game in hand when suddenly the game shifts in the opponent's favor because of dumb luck, like when your Pokémon misses two moves in a row that would have defeated an opponent. When a player gets haxed its common for the player to ragequit because of the combination of shock and anger.
Example
I was 1 move away from winning the match and got haxed. I hate life

Gamers use hax as an alternate spelling of hacks. Typically, players use this abbreviation when accusing other players of cheating at a game, by hacking the game or exploiting a bug.
For example, if you continually defeat another player in an FPS, they might claim you're using hax to get the upper hand. In this case, you may want to respond with a simple "git gud noob" and stop playing against that player.
