I'm not a proponent of the rigged agenda but I do have a serious problem with Ultimatebet. I only play online at Sportsbook and Poker Stars because I seem to do well on these sites and I patiently, little by little pad my BR. The reason I left Ultimatebet was because after I sent a rather discouraging letter to support there asking about Absolute Poker affiliations and not sure whether they were safe from security breach they couldn't convince me to keep playing there. So I figured I'd play out my small BR I had there and this is no shit, and I do have the hand histories......
after that email I LOST 53 all-ins (or all-in by showdown) hands IN A ROW. I was ahead percentage wise when cards up 48 of the 53. So I chalked it up as the longest freakin cold streak of my life. And left Ultimatebet.
Here's my 2 math Questions.....
What are the chances (odds) of flipping a coin heads 53 times in a row?
and

I have over 100 "buddies" who are never online. These are crazy mofos who called with crap and won. I fully believe they had ery brief hot streaks and went on to lose their ill gotten gains.
So here's your explanation. I figure that it's not easy to work a mouse when you only have a flipper. I also figure it's hard to make proper hand selections when you're a moron. Thus I'm amending my Ultimatebet theory(ah heck it's a hypothesis at best, ya got me). A bunch of the players at Ultimatebet are Thalidomide babies, and here's the amendment - Crack babies.
It makes perfect sense. See they're accidentally calling with their stubby little flipper hands(those are the Thalidomide babies). And intentionally calling with mega-crap that only a crack baby would call with.
It makes perfect sense now. Thalidomide babies and crack babies. It's tragic really. I almost feel sorry for them. Almost. Aww poor little flipper handed idiots. I really feel sorry for them now.

It's not unusual to make a bet with second pair or any pair for that matter. I mean, what if you're just trying to find out where you stand? It's not like you can just ask point blank and know you'll get an honest answer. So ya bet. Same with draws I suppose. If ya bet and the other person raises, ya figure they've really got something while you're chasing. So ya fold, unless they don't raise by much cuz then you're in it.
Just a thought.

Go Bengals
Well you are probably used to the losing, being a Bengals fan and all

Saying it's underdog friendly IS saying it's rigged. If you think the underdog wins more often than it statistically should, then you think the site is rigged in favor of the underdog. This is about as simple as logic gets, really.

That's fine dude. Do me a favor, do 20 pushups, 50 situps, 100 jumping jacks and run around the block a few times to ent some of this rage you have stored inside your body, then I'll meet you at the bar for a beer.

Did you even read my post? Did I say bad beats don't happen? It's common knowledge that the low limit tables are filled with donks and you can't measure a poker site by how the low limit tables play.
My rant was about the retards who decide that the site is out to get them and rigging their decks when that happens. In their infinate poker wisdom, they have decided that that kind of thing could NEVER happen to them becase they play perfectly. Then these retards feel the need to go to forums and tell everyone that the sites are cheating and lieing and stealing to make them lose when they were so obviously ahead and gonna win. It's just stupid. What the hell could the site possibly have to gain by making the underdog win more often? They would get the same exact rake no matter who wins the hand.

Yo Tiloke,
It's not that online poker is rigged. The problem is the donks and your gonna get more donks at the low end stakes. When AA gets cracked by 25 os it's not that it's rigged it's the fact that the stupid sob should not have played that hand in the first place. And when that happens to me I'm gonna throw a few 4-letter words his way to let him know he's a donk and I may cry about it in a forum. That's one of the situations these forums are for. So if you want to leave cardschat, be my guest dude, I sure as hell won't lose any sleep over it.

I can't take this crap anymore, I think I need to leave cardschat.
Every other post here has turned into ," Boo-hoo I lost my money,online poker is rigged, heres some worthless proof that actually proves nothing." type of post.
It simply amazes me to think there are so many retarded people that actually think poker must be rigged. Didn't you see what happened at Absolute Poker? It took no time at all for the poker world to see that happening. That means that there are "poker nerds" out there who make it there lifes work to go out and find stuff just like this. If there was even the tiniest bit of evidence that poker sites "stacked" their decks , it would be paraded out by these people. Instead, all we see is the sore loser, the guy who just lost a lot of money saying this. Yep, musty be the sites fault, because there is absolutely NO way you were wrong, right?
Heres the truth for you idiots that think it's rigged, are you ready for it?

If you really believe that nonesense, then why don't you start playing like a donk yourself (assuming that you don't already)? Perhaps you'll win, in which case you will have 'proved' your point.

i was playing at a $1-$2 nolimit table bought in for $100 it took about an hr to lose it all and this is how i lost it im in the big blind with ace jack offsuit i have $79 left 1st to act folds next guy calls next guy raises to $5 the button calls i call the other guy folds.flop comes ace jack nine 3 suits,i bet out for $10 the raiser calls and the button folds.turn is an 8 i bet $15 the raiser takes it to $75 which puts me allin i think about it and decide to call.7 hits the river the guy has pp 10s wins with jack high straight.so now im on tilt just watchin at the table and the same guy sucks out on 5 or 6 more hands where he hit a 3 or 4 outer on the river to win and in every hand he was bettin big with a draw. so he either knew what was coming or the program that ultimate bet is running is set up for the underdog to win.now i doubt that he knew what was coming but i think he knows the program is set to let the underdog wincause in hands where he was leading he never bet big enough to get anyone alli... | | Read Entire Entry |
