I posted this before: I don't know whether Stars is rigged or not, all i know is i played there for 3 months and lost 2000$ overall.
I moved to Tribeca and won 15000$ in the same period of time (about 3 months).
I probably improved my game, but not by that much....

So, i continue to play on Tribeca.
For whatever reason Stars didn't work out for me.

It seems to me that if two players are all-in on the flop in one of your tournaments, the turn card almost always gives the hand that is behind more outs. I also feel that the river card helps the hand that is behind way more often than the statistical probability.

If you actually believe this is true, you should adjust your play and call all-ins with a greater range. Heck -- anytime you face a pre-flop all-in from a known tight player, you should call with total and complete garbage since "riverstars" will come through for you.

Of course, there's no meaningful evidence this is true, but that shouldn't stop you from "Calling Your Way to Riches."

The entire reason for threads like this is that "RiverStars" is catchier than "PartyRiver".

You're going to have to work much, much harder than that to make a gimmick account memorable.

I really hope this a joke post.

These posts are always repetitive, and make me embarrassed to call myself an online player.

I kind of understand where the OP is coming from. Not specifically about PStars, but in general.

If you play enough MTT's across several sites each day, theres often at times going to be one particular site that pisses you off for a week or two. You are going to take it personally until things change. I know I do. Just human nature.

It was a joke guys, a joke. I have received 6 PM's asking me what site I work for. Online poker is not rigged, I do not work for a site, my post was a joke guys.
