Am I being rigged by Full Tilt Poker or is this normal variance?

[yepitstrue]

Do what I suggested and start a new screename, transfer funds to new screen, rock n roll again! Just cause its rigged doesn't meen you can't beat the system.

You can't respect my comments b/c I 4 table? All I was saying is that I've played a lot of hands and I have taken a lot of beats.

So if you couldn't lose would you complain that the site was rigged to you? I doubt it. Wow, you laid down some hands, sick. Everyone does. Not everyone you play is as dumb as a doornail.

I think you don't understand variance nor do you understand the frequency of beats. Maybe you should read up on them and stop making stupid threads.

There's a lot of truth in that. I did some experimenting with some new accounts, played the same way on each with minor dollars :

Titan - x3 stake upswing then a downswing
Pokerstars - doubled up immediately and ran for Neteller
Bodog - got killed
Virgin - x8 my stack then ran for Neteller

I don't mind losing a few hands, I lost a few 2-3K pots on my way up to $9000. But to lose on average $1000 per day playing LESS hands than normal....it all seemed a bit suspicious....and as computers can't generate random numbers properly it makes you wonder....

Again the point of this thread is to get everyone's opinion so I can form my own opinion, I even listen to comments from jobby-jabbers like yourself and take them into consideration.

Here you want the answer: No you didn't get cheated. Everyone takes beats, over and over. Your beats are in fact nothing special. I've had set vs set a bunch of times. Do I think it sucks, yup. Do I think it's rigged, not really.

I've benefitted from the "right" card hitting and I've been on the other end. I don't see from a couple hands you've posted how you could be cheated.

You should read BBV some more. Read some of Grimstarr's posts where he went from what 100k to near a million and dropped it all. Did he claim to be cheated? Nope, yet you who is still up, is still naive about poker thinks the site purposefully cheats him for what gain?

If the site were rigged wouldn't it want you to keep playing to keep generating rake? The site doesn't benefit from players like myself and yourself from busting and from people cashing out, it benefits from people playing. So I don't see why you would think it's just trying to bust you, it isn't. If you don't like it play something else or do something else with your money and time cause it's not worth your time to complain about it.

I'm now convinced that OP was a joke.

NH, you got me.

This is getting old, and I'm starting to think it's a gimmick for attention.

You get upset because losing $1000 a day seems abnormal, but in your previous post you talk about having a day where you multiplied your stack by 8. Is THAT normal?

What I am getting from this is that you are really out of touch with reality. All good poker players win some days and lose some days. If you truly are good, you will win more than you will lose, but it is impossible to prevent bad beats and days where luck just isn't going your way. You really don't seem to have a grasp on this yet

[yoshi123]

I am aware some days you lose, some days you win. I am a tournament player after all who is used to losing most days and winning once in a while - that's how tournament poker goes.

However, I am very suspicious of huge declines or 'slumps' because my financial fate is generated by a computer controlled by a human rather than a random deck of cards.

Everyone's comments are still welcome...

(not sure where you're getting this attention thing from..weird...I'm looking for opinion)

[Stake Monster]

you probably lose because:

1- you might suck (I dunno)
2- variance

you should:

1- move down and work on your game
2- wait for the sklansky bucks
3- profit?

No it isn't normal - that is why I'm referring to. Virgin poker let me move x8 my stack in 1 hour flat. Let you win, win, then let you lose. In any case I withdrew asap.
