party poker is cool and thats mostly what i play because they allow you to deposit via calling cards (i currently dont have a bank account and no online sites seem to accept my cc). The one thing i hate about pp though is i seem to get beat on bullshit there more than any other site ive ever tried. I think the reason for this is there are ALOT of horrible horrible players on party poker that will make dumb ass bets when you are the heavy odds favorite to win the hand. The more people that make bad bets when you are the odds favorite the more often you are gonna lose large pots to lucky players. It is somewhat hard to play good strategy at pp cause it seems like people will call you no matter what, even if you go all in and someone else has nothing they will still call you where as if you were playing with skilled players they wouldve folded and you wouldve taken the pot, but since you played against an idiot your bankroll at that table is now gone.
I have tried a few online poker sites in addition to partypoker like pokerstars and full-tilt poker. The one thing that I found is thatno matter what site you are at there going to be players who will call almost anything and will go all-in even though they have crap.
Absolutely. I have been SPANKED by bad beats on every online site there is. I have also been dealt some pretty suspicious hands on Pokerstars.
For example...I had 11 pocket pairs in a 3 hour session last night. This is not a one night occurrence, it happens a lot. Even so, I raise with 10-10 and higher, and raise 5x big blind. Doesn't matter...people LOVE SUITED CARDS, no matter what they are. I have lost to more back door flushes online than I ever have in the casino. No,, the sites aren't rigged, I don't think, it's just that you are playing against the average housewife that watches the WPT on the Travel Channel and see the girl saying you don't need a man to play the game, you need a mouse. She signs up, deposits 100 or so of her husbands money, and calls every bet you put out there...with 7-2 suited. Welcome to online poker folks. In fact, I'm watching another Party Poker commercial right now.
Here's my recent Dive into the Party Poker Hell. I'm up 90 bucks so i sit down at a table with 100 and after a while of folding i have Q A and on the flop i hit the str8, THE NUTS move all in and get called by someone with 5 7 of clubs just PRAYING that they hit their 7 high flush and they do. All week long they do. It doesnt matter what you do how you play or how much you bet you can not win against people who have no idea what they are doin and just wanna see if they hit.
And the ONLY REASON that i can think of about why these people are calling with compleate nonsence is because they are VERY upset with their husbands and want to loose their money. With my last 50 i sat down at a .50 1.00 blinds game HOPING TO find someone that knows what they are doin... i have ace 10 and raise 4 preflop and get called by ALOT of people... The flop comes out and i have 2 pair and there is 2 clubs out there.. so i go all in for 40ish so no one will CHASE there flush..... SOMEONE DOES and sure as shit they hit.... so i will not be playing ANYMORE online poker. I would have to stab the side of my head til its bleeding, to deal with the runner runner whores that play SEVEN HIGH FLUSH DRAWS FOR 90$$$$$.
Online poker is compleatly differant than live poker. After a while your money looses its value and becomes numbers. If you honestly pay attention to your own play you will see that you chase a lot more than in live games. You also see twice as many hands per hour. that means that you see 20-1 hit more often. Eventully underdogs will hit. thats why it is called gambling. If your sick of it stop playing and get your self a bot.
Interesting.........is there a decent bot around you can help me find.I mean a good one and not those stupid odd calculators and so on.
I play on party but i hear the good sites banned any kind of bots!!!
How do i know if i pay for one it will work on a genuine site?
I never understands why people complain about players doing wrong moves and is generally bad players. Isnt that a good thing playing against bad players? That will make you the money, not playing against pros lol
Starting to hate Party Poker this is what happens to me all the time..
I deposit some coin that day I will double my deposit in winnings. come back next day can't catch a hand for the life of me even if I have strong pockets and lose my winnings from previous day the, take a break couple day and then constant losing again can't get a hand for the life of me here is an example..
Tables played have been .10/.25 or .50/1
dealt AA, make a $5 bet every one folds but 2 then on the flop KK 4 I make hefty bet $15 one of the guys fold other calls (pocket 2's) turn a 2 hefty betting, flop another 2 I lose a lot of $$.
I had trip K's on the flop with K,2,3 showing put in a $15 bet on a .50/1 table and the idiot goes all in $65 with A8 off suite. At this point he is just gambling not playing poker. Sure enough on the Turn A, on the river another A. I loose all my coin.
Another hand I had AK suited flop 7,4,9 same suit, I have the nut flush make a hefty bet buddy has 79 in his hand goes all in, I call sure enough catches a 9 on the flop.
I also get the same card dealt to me 5 times in a row.. such as Q6 more than once in 2 days never have I seen that in a real game of poker I have had same cards dealt to me 2 time in a row but that is about it.
Starting to think PP has me flagged to lose all the time. only when I make a deposit after being away for a month do I win.
i agree with the facts the partypoker is garbage and possibly rigged but ganther can't even lie correctly about how he lost his hand.

You would have made a fullhouse, while the A8 would have made trip Aces. At least learn to lie correctly.
