Full Tilt, Poker Stars and Paradise Poker

#1 15-01-2007, 4:51 PM

I have to disagree on the Full Tilt Poker site. I would give it maybe
a 2 out of 10. I have been waiting nearly a day for my neteller
withdrawal request. The play is not right. They don't do the blinds properly
as a player is knocked out of the tournament. If the player following
the button is knocked out. The button remains on that person the
following hand, and doesn't move at all. If the player 2 spots following the button is knocked out, the button moves one spot, and then there is only
a big blind the following hand. This happens way to frequently. Not to mention their support is the worst I've encountered so far. The first time I tried to contact them , it took nearly 3 days to get a response.

I also have to say Poker Stars lives up to its "street" name as River
Stars. I played there for about 5 months and kept track of this. 70 to
75% of flush chasers hit, and the river was hit more often than not.
Its not a fair and accurate site. I like games online to be similar to
those of playing a live game, and neither of these sites do that. 2 out
of 10 would be my ranking.

I do want to give praise to Paradise Poker. My only problem with
them, is that they no longer accept US players. So far its been the only
fair and true to form site, that I've found or played on. Plus their support is 2nd to none. I never waited more than 10 minutes for a response. I'm still unhappy that US players can no longer play there, and I hope this is remedied soon, its by far the best site out there.
I'd give it an 8 out of 10.

I hope this site is honest and just doesn't post good reviews, and
posts all reviews fairly and with integrity.

You have to realize that you are playing far more hands per hour than in a live casino. So you are bound to see a lot of suckouts and bad beats. I get frustrated with it too. But I can say honestly that I have put some bad beats on other players as well. So it goes hand in hand. If you have any feeling that any site is not fair, then why are you playing any site in the first place?

Oh goody...another well disguised poker is rigged thread preparing to get flamed.

And yes, I am locking this thread before anyone goes off and flames the OP with the standard poker is rigged responses.
