I'm not an "online poker conspiracy theorist" but I just had monster after monster not hold up... I'm not going to name the site but I want my fellow gamblers to know the tilt I'm on lol.. I deposited 150 last week and quickly ran it up between Sports and poker.

.50/1 cash
-AK suited raise 4 one caller flop KKJ guy open shoves I call he has JJ
-very next hand I get KK and guy raises to 5 I reraise to 12 he smooth calls. Flop AK2 check check turn second spade fire 12 and he comes over the top for 38 and have 61 left so I shove he snaps with AA....
- These two hands happen I guess

40 6man sit and go
Early in touney 9/10 suited and call min raise flop 678 rainbow.. Check check turn A... I fire and he comes over top. A call looks sneaky because it leaves with 450 in chips so with nuts at the time I shove he snaps with 88 and rivers A

Next 40 6man game I go out boat over boat

Finally the straw that had me breaking shit
50 buck 9man

First hand I get AA and Iwas truly thinking not this early because I want to max my profit.... 10/20 blinds and I raise to 80 SB shoves BB calls and I cant hit call quick enough.. Neither has a damn pair... KQ suited andQ7 clubs (Yes you read that correctly) Nothing on flop except one club..You guessed it runner, runner club.

Ive had bad beats but never so many monsters get crushed in consecutive games....

-It is the first time Ive ever emailed support with my History...I simply wrote saying "You owe me whiskey.... and a new laptop."
Started early today fellas. Pour one out for your boy

Stay away from online poker and visit local casino if you can. I learned my lesson a long time ago. No matter what you make or have...someone out there will always make more than you. I can't tell you how many times I have tried to get people to fold but yet they call no matter how big the pot was and win on the river. I don't miss online poker one bit once you had enough bad beats to see it's flawed.

I had the best winning hand on the flop at Full Tilt in a $500 buy in tournament on Sunday years sgo.

Had won my first 2 hands & doubled up knocking out 1 guy.......was the leader.......then in the 2nd hand, I flopped a flush, then some guy went all in & caught a full house.

3rd hand I flopped a straight, guy goes all in & catches a flush needing both 4th & 5th street to catch the flush.......

I never played online poker again & I definitely think online poker can be rigged.

Agreed and great advice! On Full tilt years ago my buddy won a seat to one of the million dollar guarantee tourneys. He ended up not being able to play it and I played it and we agreed on splitting any profit.... It was a 400 buck buy in with 3000 people in it.... 13 hours later there were 12 left and I was 7th in chips.. Iplayed tight all day and made some big lay downs..... I get AK suited and raise and second in chips makes a big reraise.... I flat call... and flop AK2. I check and he puts me all in.. I sit there for a minute and then call.... He shows J10 and rivers a Q for straight.... I made some good money but I didn't sleep that night... I thought what jackass plays J10 like that especially with that money on the line...Went from being top 2 chips to a river Q finishing my best tourney Ive ever played.... Still pissesme off

on the lighter side of online poker... I remember playing at the 5Dimes tables about 10 years ago. Just wild action on the 2/5 table. One night a regular player went on tilt so badly I still can't forget it. The guy was getting mad and letting people know about it with his chat. Some other regulars started antagonizing him further and he just blew a fuse. He was going all in every hand. On losses... he would reload $600 or more, I can't remember. He started saying it doesn't matter, he was a government contractor and had money to burn. He was going all in with ANY hand he got. After losing about 5 in a row, he backed off for a few minutes, folded a few hands, then he was right back at it with marginal hands. Dude blew thru about 7k or 8k like that. For me.. I COULD NOT get a decent hand to call the friggin guy !! I missed out, but other players walked away with 2k or more from him. Ahhh.. I miss the crazy 5dimes days. Hae not been on there in years. Guessing it is different now.

The first 2 so called monster hands you were beat from start to finish. At no time in any of those hands were you leading .
The 3rd hand you were dominated preflop.
The 4th hand is the only one that you had the best hand preflop and it was a 3 way all and even with AA you are barely over 50%.



But yea I understand where you are coming from.

Short term variance can suck .

Been saying it for years that Internet poker is crooked....and we will hear about more scandals in the future. Stay away from online poker. Lose money the old fashion way....a 3-6 point dog that loses in overtime by 7

Quick question, this is the closest thread to my question that I can find, sorry. I’m looking for anyone that has any information on whether importing hands from a site into PT4 or HM2 will give you an advantage, like on Stars or PartyPoker? Any information would be helpful, thanks guys!

The third hand is 9/10 suited vs 88 - that is almost a coin flip. The first two hands, he got unlucky because his premier hands hit and were up against other good hands

Chop the variance can stink... Yes I was behind but flopping trip Kings is good on them flops 99.9 lol... and them are hands you look to get involved in especially after the two flops... 9/10 in the big to a min and flop nut straight is a dream... Hoping he had a big hand at that point... Hell when you get on a short term run like that I could have AA and flop AKK and you start thinking "did he flop quads lol"
