ok peeps,

i'm the only one that gets my 90% win odds on the river beat by crap,
is it because i'm playing with their free money, ie i've not deposited yet,

would like to just put it out there and see what ya think..

please no ...that's poker etc....
cos it doesn't seem to happen on live face to face tables...

Hey hula chops!

I'm afraid that the only answer is "thats poker" :f_frown:

Getting sucked out on isn't fun at all at all at all. But don't be afraid, it happens to everyone! In fact we have a thread where people post their bad beats.

Hi

Hulachops. It's unfortunate that you're finished with online poker but if that's how you feel then so be it. No point trying to convince you if you're adamant not to be convinced

Me and Ras just tried to convey that everyone goes through the same thing (and I do mean everyone) in the hopes to help you feel like it's not just you.

No need to close your account. If you don't use it that's ok but some time in the future you might (could be a huge might but nevertheless) come back to online poker

All the best for your future endeavours

I busted more than a few mini bankrolls. I entertained the idea myself that the game just kept wanting me to reload as they wanted their pound of flesh. It is part of human nature to feel cheated or like we deserve something when it does not go our way.

But I by no means trust every site going and would def be wary of sum. But tilt and anger when we are loosing and ego sometimes does try to make us believe that the game is wrong and I should be winning, I deserve this.

hi,

but you can spot a fish/manic at a live game quite easily,
you don't need pokertracker etc,

if i get busted on a live game it's because i miss read the play/player,
online you can't tell how much booze there head has had,
stats can tell you the type of player they MIGHT be,

from my experience most online players are fish/manic's,(up to 50nl game)
will chase an ace/str/flush till they hit and they of course do.....

online sites love this kind of player,
more rake and makes the player think they are good.......
so more deposits when they miss cause they hit the other 90% of the time

if i could play most of the muppets who busted me at a head to head live game,
i'd more than likely own there house by the end of the session...:)
but i'd give it back(i'm not that cruel)...

i feel that the sites want a deposit off you,(so destroy your free bankroll)
i played the EPT freeroll on pokerstars years ago and still do.
i made enough to play to a highish level until i decided to move on( ie cash out).To play live games round the country.

so i kinda know what i'm on about( er i hope:)
i don't think i can be the only player who has doubts,

H

Don't trying to be a dick here, but if you are exp player, why are you crying about suck outs? You know about variance, and this is part of poker. I would love to read, how to deal with tilt, how to improve your mindset, from your experience, but the same old cry, that we all know, isn't interesting.
Anyway, best of luck in the future mate. ;)
