The River (or...They always get there)

<< < (2/10) > >>

Sef:
well recently I have been getting turned/rivered constantly with 2 and 3 outers so I decided to start counting the wins/losses with them when all in pre.... last 19 times it"s been in pre with AA v 88 or such PP hands I have held up once....... last 13 times when it"s been AK/AQ v AJ/KQ type hands i have held up twice. So 2 outered 18/19 times and 3 outered 11/13 now although I"m sure we would all agree that it"s not much of a sample size it"s sickening nonetheless. This is all on pokerstars aswell so take from it what you will  :)

Screenshot?

Sef:
Didn"t bother with screenshots as I just kept count for my own wonderment.

I"ve only been reg"d with Stars since week 1 of the online league and have to say I"m already sick sick sick, despite finishing 4th in the 1st online league. I don"t play every day multi tabling, 6 hours a day, probably more in the region of about 12 hours a week with only 1 or 2 tables usually. In that short time, and for the 5th time last night, I have lost after flopping a FH. I would never suggest for a minute that anything is rigged against me (why would it be), but I have no qualms whatsoever at suggesting that the cards dealt are nowhere near as random as it"s suggested. The large numbers of AA all in pre I"ve lost with is just horrible, way too often again (IMO) to be random (just a few posted on my blog, as well as one that went in my favour).

Those of you who know me well realise I"m the type to take beats and move on to the next hand/game. I"m struggling badly though to continue taking outdraw after outdraw, numerous runner runners, and again AA hammerings when you"re meant to be 4/1+ favourite. I"m completely unable to build my bankroll since my initial cash in week 1 and steadily feeling more & more demoralised getting smacked about the head. Last nights 88 v 10/7os on 8/4/4 flop may be my final straw, though I will continue with the first stage of the league at least.

AMRN:
Sorry guys but I have to laugh at all the hints and suggestion about Pokerstars being rigged, or the cards being non-random.   In a world of lawsuits resulting in scrutiny to the lowest level of detail, do we really think that the largest online provider in the world, with a turnover in the billions, would risk losing it all for the sake of rigging the RNG to have an impact in micro stakes games, to favour house players??
