heh, that thread is pretty good insight into how your typical fish thinks and views online poker.

That said tho, I pretty much agree with what he said. It's called Riverstars for a reason.

Another reason I might be having bad luck is simply because I am not putting enough money on to start with. I always play low stakes (never higher than 25/50c blinds) because I have never put more than $60 dollars to start with. I have turned $60 into $500 before (!!!!!!!!!!). But overall I get called by terrible cards with the nut straight after the flop and lose to 4 of a kind or a full house on some ubsurd turn and river.

Incredibly frustrating when I know I am the better player. I don't know what some people are thinking when they make these calls.

He never said he started on NL50.
He said he never played higher than NL50 which is quite reasonable if you gonna cash out every time you reach 500.

80% sure that when allin preflop pokerstars rigs the order of the 5 cards for maximum drama. (most dramatic card on river or turn).

having said that, it doesn't change anything.

no I'm just saying that AK vs 55 allin

it comes wxy z A, or wxy A z, more often than usual.

as opposed to
wAx y z
wxA y z
Awx y z

where w,x,y,z are non fives.

as you can see it doesn't change the outcome of the hand at all, since all the money went in preflop.

I had to stop reading it at "80%." I don't know what he is playing but generally 95% of "players" at Stars are at least decent players. That's why he, an offline player, is losing.
