GGPoker ??

[JasonB]

Hi, I know it has probably been beat to death with a stick by now but...

I just started playing on GGPoker and my win-rate from GGPoker and pokerstars are so different. As soon as I start to win some money on GGP I start running into suck outs.

The money goes in and some Bingo Player is in the Pot and he takes it down (lol) I know any 2 cards can win a Poker Hand. I tried it twice and both times I have come up with the same result.

I know there are winning poker players on GGP. Maybe it is just me being paranoid - I have looked online and read some stuff being action rigged - But that could just be a random spot a player just decided to post up - It is not the whole story.

I don't know but my gut is telling me it is weird. Something just doesn't feel right. I know it is just not me I see it at the poker Tables that is not just happening to me but to others as well.

Yesterday I had KQ suited in the Big Blind - But I folded it because I knew something crazy was going to happen if I played that hand. I flopped a Straight - The pot would've been a 3-way All in on the Flop - I would've went in with a flopped straight and there was a Set and 2-Pair - Full House over Full House and my losing straight.

This is just one occasion - At times I think something is going to happen here when I am not in the Pot and the cards are turned over I starting thinking that - this other player is going to runner some crazy back door draw.

I pulled out all my money from that site and just left in my Bonus Money I had gotten. I managed to double it and then lost almost what I had doubled.

I think it is just me though - People do get run outs that's Poker - But when ya start calling it and getting it right when the cards are flipped over who's going to win the hand.

I don't know man - lol ???

I think I am just being paranoid

Several times I have noticed that GG poker is completely different from other poker sites
they are allowed to win, but funny combinations are mixed together with funny players

I am just playing out this Bonus Money until I lose it all - But I am not just giving it away - I am trying to play my best game - Once it's all gone then I'm just moving on from the site - again lol - i think I'll stay on Stars I just wanted to widen my playing pool was all...

GGpoker does not even ban Russians and Belarusians, this means that everything is allowed there, including ... (everyone can choose their own version)

The keyword is here: "just started". In order to just somewhat overcome variance, you need to play at least 100.000 hands in cash games and even more in tournaments. Check out the free variance calculators at Pokerdope.com to learn about variance in poker. Its very common to underestimate this.

Have you never rolled a dice twice and have it land on a 6 both times?

Which again does not prove anything other than "shit happens", and that a bad decision can sometimes work in your favour.

Not quite sure why a site operating in any particular market is the same as "anything being allowed?" We might disagree with their decision to still operate in these two countries, and in that case we are free to not play there, if its a deal breaker to us. But this does not mean, its reasonable to claim, the site is rigged, or that all sorts of cheating is allowed or accepted. And just for the record belarussians are also allowed to play on PokerStars, and both belarussians and russians on ACR Poker. So if this is unacceptable to you, the list of sites, where you can play, is pretty short.

Yes I actually did that the first time - Did the Sample this is why I had stopped playing the first time - Came back a second time same thing was happening

Well I am not going to get into this whole debate over shyt happens - I know any 2 cards can win a poker hand - but when you start calling something and you fold because of it - and what you just called was right - something was going to happen in this hand and all the money starts going in on the flop.

This is why I don't really like going on forums anymore - I just asked a simple question about a site and if anybody noticed anything about it.

Anyway I have better things to do about debating about if a site is rigged or not

You can say your last words now - You win - Good Luck at the tables

I just started at GGPoker a few days ago. In my opinion (as a micro player) at the mystery games for .25, too much gadgetry.
Then I found a slot in casino that I liked and played quite a bit but; I keep on disconnecting just about every hand of poker I play and every time I hit the bet button on the slot on top of getting free games I disconnect constantly.
I don't know how to get customer service. And I am fed up with them already.
PokerStars is still the best place to play in my opinion, even though I am still trying to get my bonuses to work in the casino.

That kqs fold in the BB was most likely a pretty bad fold im the long run if this was only a single raised pot.

Only because u were right this exact time because u "knew something crazy is going to happen" does not mean anything. It was just pure coincidence that "something crazy actually really happened."

Which kind of proves fundivers point that u should read about variance and samplesize. U can add personal bias to that.
