Concern with playing an unregulated site

_Anonymous_ · 2020-02-02T15:57:42Z

I am looking for input to either encourage me to rebuy or caution me against it. Here is my situation: $.50-$1 100 max Black Chip poker site. I am in a state where I cannot play a US regulated site. I won $100 a day religiously for a couple of weeks. Bankroll was $1400. I requested a cash out of $500. There was a flood of resistance and my application was declined even though I followed the Chat instructions to the letter. I did it all again and finally got it approved. The Chat person skipped a step in the process. I was told it would take 8 weeks to receive a check and if I didn't cash it within 60 days of receipt the money would be permanently forfeited. I immediately started losing every session. I am the same player I was. I have had a startling succession of bad beats. I lost my last $200 yesterday in a series of incredible "only one way to play" bad beats. I had a friend come over to verify I was not exaggerating and we reviewed my entire day to see if I could have done something different. I played a very conservative game. I never played a hand as weak as AJo or KQo. I had 2 wins. AA opened with 2.5 bb raise and got no callers. Flopped 999 small lead out and no callers. I never won another pot. AKs Flopped K lost to a flopped flush. It is 8 to 1 my single opponent has the necessary suited cards to have flopped the flush. I lost the minimum, around $25. KK in SB BTN AA. BTN raised, I re-raised he went allin and I called. Re-Buy. 45s on the BTN Flopped nut straight 7 high against BB only. 763 I led out and got a call. Turn 3 check check river 3 Board is 763-3-3 BB goes all in. I can't beat anything he could possibly have called the flop bet with. I fold and lose $23. Last hand I flop nut flush on the BTN. UTG bets out. I call. Turn is a blank. UTG bets large. No need to raise as we are getting close to allin anyway but it would not have changed a thing. He was not going to fold to the small amount of chips I had left. Of course the board paired and called my remaining $12 or whatever and he had full house. I was sick when it paired but no point in folding the last $12 in case he had the occasional weaker flush. I have had a similar chain of days like this to go through $900. No one hand means anything but the change is statistically unreasonable. I have checked the stats on all the players in my HUD and none of them are consistent winners. Some are ahead a little but none are ahead a lot over the course of time I have played with them and most are consistent losers. So, has anyone had a similar experience or does anyone have information that would help me have confidence in the legitimacy of these offshore sites or ???

Couple other sites you might want to take a look at. Coinpoker - you will need to pay with ETh, but payouts are probably the quickest - 5 minutes or less. Getting fairly popular - saw 500 people on there the other day. SWC poker - pretty small, but sometimes beggars can't be choosers hey - they take BTC.

Many, me included think ACR's, has some pretty dodgy gameplay. But really need to sit down with a notepad and get some facts together. And you pretty much guaranteed the server crashing when they have multiple huge MTTs on.

My brother works as an advisor to a real dodgy unregulated Asian site.

Cashing out, or unrealistic rake is where they will usually screw you. The software won’t be making you lose.
