Full Tilt is so sick

Just played a SNG where I was card dead the entire tournament. There are 4 players left 3 get paid, the blinds are big and the big stack has been pushing all in preflop the last 15 hands or so in a row and was called only once. Finally I get a decent hand, A5 offsuit, so I raised from the CO. And the SB finally picked up a hand, AA and went all in, I had to call since it was only a few more chips. Flop came 9 5 5 and I won. Very next hand I had 88 the maniac pushed all in against me I called he had 55 and caught a 5 on the river. Funny thing is this kinda thing is the norm on FT.

Yeah, the norm about 5% of the time

Unless you mean its normal for blinds to get so large that it generally becomes a bunch of all ins, which yes, is quite the norm.

is this the same guy who is always complaining about full tilt being rigged?

FYP

You complain a lot about Full Tilt, why don't you just stop playing there if you hate it so much?

I definetly hate it so much. I deposited on there to play our games and I'm slowly but surely donking it off. Like you suggested,I will quit playing there as soon as I lose it allllllllllllllllllll. Its making me play scared on PS for jimminy crickets sake. So stop playing there bethemen if you don't like it. I know I will untill I get the urge to play cc members of course.

Just logged into Cardschat where I was hoping to read some great new threads. There are 4 new threads 1 by Bentheman87, my expectations are big even though Ben has been making silly FT is rigged threads for about his last 15 threads or so. Finally, I think, maybe this will be a decent thread, so I clicked the topic title. I had to open it despite the title since it was only one thread and I thought 'F.T' might stand for fluffy tomatoes or something and the thread might be about fluffy tomatoes making Ben nauseous. Very next moment I actually started reading the thread and saw it was indeed just another full tilt whine thread. Funny thing is this is kinda the norm for Ben.

Maybe you should look towards plugging holes in your game instead of searching for a scapegoat... sounds to me like the "maniac" was playing correct bubble strategy. Muck 88 on the bubble under these circumstances and this kind of thing won't happen...

I find a good strategy against a maniac is to get into the hand with a strong ace or a high PP and fold everything else.
You can't play position when there is a maniac at the table pushing every hand and if you can, please enlighten me on how to play position against an ATC maniac.
A maniac tends to push ATC and IMO the above strategy works very well against maniacs.

the guy is obviously just a bad player who needs an excuse for his bad play. i feel sorry for him that he can't realize the truth and quit writing threads on how online poker is rigged. people who think online poker is rigged are just pathetic. i feel sorry for you...

LOL I'm not whining didn't you read where I said I got lucky and beat AA all in preflop with my A5 and that bursted the bubble. I'm just saying it's so sick how often the worst hand wins on FT. I'd say I win just as often if I have a J 10 vs AK as I do if I have KK vs ace rag.

i find it 50/50 losing with a good hand and winning with medicre hands

You are whining though, for some reason you actually think that Full Tilt favours the underdog when it doesn't. You're just remembering all of the times it happens and forgetting about the times when your hand holds up. Until you can prove it with some stats we're all going to rag on you about these posts you keep making.

Ok, lets think about how many times we have seen the best hand win, you dont remember a whole lot of those do you? You just remember the bad ones, and it tends to make a person think it is happening all the time. You also see a lot of hands in online poker, so there are going to be more beats

Oops, posted almost the exact same thing, guess thats what I get for not reading the thread all the way down, my bad lol

*starts to type something about selective recall and proper record keeping... then doesn't bother*

Sigh. DM said it right.
Suggestion: Maybe we should just treat these types of threads as spam.

Edit: Ben, what ever happened to that long break you were planning on doing. I believe you posted a thread about it, saying that you will take a long break, and not even think about poker at all. Maybe that break should begin soon.


Like now.

Try a different site or play live. If you still lose, then you are the problem. If you win, then we have a something interesting to write about.

Honestly, I believe the rake and quick blinds are a problem at FullTilt. Try out a different site because it appears that no one wants to hear about your FullTilt stories anymore.

this deserves more love

Ben I think your cool so I ont yell at you....but yeah its not FT lol....just the way the cards went i that sng.....and i wa going to make a smart remark about oyur title but i won't...ok I have to if full tilt is "sick" give it some donk soup...lol
