Hello everyone im writing this just to see if anyone out there has experienced similar things. I started playing on betonline about a month or so ago, and I have seen some things on forums about them being difficult with payouts back in 2012. But they seem to have straightened it out lately or so the rankings list when I look for US sites say. Anyways im wondering if anyone seems to notice alot of ugly beats suck outs and coolers if your a winning playing. I ran 100 up to 500 in about my first 1-2k hands at 25nl and since I have been hit with a run of cards I really am starting to not believe is real variance. I understand poker and how variance work in the profitability of the game and it the short term. But I go over my sessions in holdem indicator after every session and for about the past 10k hands since I first deposited and ran my account up to where their limit for their monthly withdraw is I have been killed pretty much by the cards. Im talking very bad an unusual ace getting all in vs underpairs and getting cracked 8 out of 10 times and having around 8 out of 10 all in pots gotten into with 70%+ equity and losing along with draws not hitting near as often as correct over large sample. As of now I have been going through a cycle of winning up to around 500 and taking a few few unavoidable hands where I make the correct play by far a get killed by high unlikely and ugly beats. Im not looking to get into a discussion about these things happening in poker I am simply wondering if anyone has noticed similar things because im starting to get suspicious and am wondering if I should move on.

Haven't played any of the larger buy ins so I can't relate to your question. I sure do not want to see something like that happening. Some of the beats I have been in, do reflect my playing ability in which I hope to improve. I try to get my chips in when I feel I have have the cards to warrant so, only to give them up to a runner runner most times. I try not to read to much into it other than to slow down a little. I hope your run returns and other issues fade. There is always the other option we have is to choose a different site.--r

I find the same thing on a lot of sites but especially BOL and ACR. I have found though that if you delete your browsing history that it combats this. I'm not sure why but I will crush it for awhile and then go on a run where I just can't seem to win a hand, I can take AA against 72o and lose everytime during one of these runs. I was frustrated one day and quit playing, ran Spybot (regular maintenance) and later that day I logged back in and was running well again, so the next time I started going on a run where I just kept losing, I did it again, and it worked again. I know that the sites track the players themselves but I think they utilize your browser history to do it, so try that and let me know if it works for you too.

Thats funny those are the 2 sites I use and am getting irritated at both because of that! I live in sacramento so I can just play live if needed till legal online poker comes but I will definitely try that! Do I need to run a program like that or just delete the history you think?
