Topic: Another "is online poker fixed" thread.. reasons below! Forum: Card Chat

Well, tonight has been a night of bad beats. One bad beat in a night will upset me and anger me.. but many is just plain unrealistic.

The first came as a surprise but happens.

in a $40 heads up match, I went all in with AK Pre flop. I got called with.. yes that's right.. Q2... Queen Two!!! Off suit? An all in, for $40, called by queen 2. Ok thats the fault of the player not the site.. though this angered me:
Flop was T45... Turn was 8. Guess what the river was? 2.

Ok that's one bad beat for $40.... so i thought, ok, I'll enter another $10 multi table with 200 odd players...

Down to the last 30.. (top 20 get money)... I went all in with KK... was called by A2. Flop?

A -- A -- A.

Fine fine, another bad beat.. so finally i entered a $5 sng just because I was annoyed. I got KQ suited. Raised. got called. Flop was JTQ. I go all in. He calls with A3. Have a guess what the river was? It was an ace.

I mean, ok every day people get river beats. But work out the odds of the events above happening? Less than 10% for each one. The odds of all 3 happening within one hour are ridiculously small! It doesn't happen! It just doesn't.

I play real life poker ALL the time. I may see one or 2 bad beats in a big game, but nothing like 3 in quick succession.

People will say "they're not as bad as..." and i agree, they're not as bad as some possible bad beats, but the point im making is the odds are NOT realistic on poker sites. If you play using odds it is easy to lose a lot of money through bad beats.

All of the above happened on noble poker. I will play our cardschat freerolls but that's it. I am sick of seeing ridiculous odds going for crap players. Its rubbish and maniacs take full advantage of it...

If you bet $100 and lose.. so you bet $200 and lose.. so you bet $400 and lose and keep going like this... the time you win you're going to get a lot, and the odds mean you will win sometime, so maniacs sit and do this and screw good players for christ sake.

Algorithms on poker sites suck! They seem TOO random that they become not random enough and odds are not realistic. If they were realistic then why do i NEVER see this type of event in ahome game.

All rubbish imo.
