Just played in a tournament...pocket kings were dealt 7+ times in less than 30 minutes. Not exaggerating. Awesome.

Haven't noticed this problem at the buy-in tables...but definitely in tournaments for some reason.

Read once where DOYLE said he picked up pocket ACES 3-5 times in a row once.

Play long enough in either live poker or video poker, you will see amazing things happen to others, as well as to yourself.

Saturday nights alright for rigging....lol

you guys wanna see some real awful crap??? i put 50 bucks in Pacific Poker last night cus id heard of all the bad players....OMG!!! this place makes bodog seem like the final table of the WSOP. ov 70% seeing the flop every hand!! and they dont stop there, theres only 1 motto there...WE NEVER FOLD!!! plus the tournys are all 5 min levels meaning you can forget waiting on premium hands...you have to play what your dealt or you blind out before the 1st break, did i mention you only start with 800 chips?????? its nothing but an all-in fest. frickin most ridiculous excuse for poker ive ever seen...im just going to go back and burn off the rest of my deposit at the 15/30 tables where at least a more reasonable 65% of the players see the flop.....lol

I had back to back straight flushes at bo dog a few days ago, then the very next hand I had a flush

I was limping in on a lot of hands though

before that I am not sure if I've ever had a straight flush

No excuse for this BS!

So MANY tourneys these days, live and on the internet, have ridiculous blind structures, low time levels, and low starting chips.

Hell, everybody just as well play SHOWDOWN from the onset.

Very little strategy/skill in these junk tourneys and 97% of the time the person who wins is simply the person who was the most luckiest.

pacific poker is a joke. the software is atrocious. More bugs than you can count. Not to mention it took about 6 days for a withdrawal through neteller.

Pacific/Party poker's tourney structure is laughable. I don't care how bad the players are, no serious player would ever waste their time playing those tourneys.

doyles starts out with 2000 chips and begins with 20/40 blinds.

pokerstars is 1500 chips and 10/20 blinds.

10 minute intervals at both i think. might be 8 minutes at doyles.

Never tried Bugsy's

Cash or tourneys----depends on the individual.

Personally, no limit hold'em tourneys is what I play 98% of the time as that is my main (if only), strength in poker.

pokerstars tourneys are usually 15 minute levels unless its a turbo tourney.....the bigger events on pstars usually have 20 or 30 minute levels except the weekly $215...

I love the 15$ buying Tourneys At Doyles...you can get 1 or 2 easy... the 6 seated table is even easier ..IMO

Well boys my stint at pacific...oopsss i meant pathetic poker is over....i had read probably 3-4 posts in various forums about being dealt aces and having your hand folded...well guess what??????? yep..sure as shit, im dealt aces in a 50nl game, i bet 8.00....im immediatly disconnected, booted out of the game and my 8.00 bet is gone...bunch of thieving bastards at this dump. i ever run up on matthew hilger that s.o.b. owes me 50 bucks..thats who referred me to this crock of crap site....id heard bad things about em but man it seems like more would be made of the outright bullshit that goes on there than what ive read....now i cant wait to see what kind of crap ill have to go thru to get my payout.....if i ever get it which somehow im thinking will probably be the case.....
