hmm So you're looking for a poker room to play and someone told you BetOnline. DO NOT play there! so many players have been ripped off by them when its time to cashout. not too mention their software problems i've played there and had it freeze up on me cash games, tourneys and wouldnt let me log back on after i restart computer and everything. its their crappy software's problem not our computers. and tonight/well today since its am now.. i bought into a tourney.. not many left it froze up on me AGAIN. when it froze up on me i had slightly under 14,000 chips.. blinds were 500/1,000. i was beat by their CRAPPY Software, the time i spent trying to log back in and couldn't. i contacted live chat thru them and still was having problems and all of a sudden BAM it lets me log back in. i go to the tourney i was in.. top 8 paid..guess what! i finished 9th! crazyness.. so do not play on betonline because this type of problem has happened to many of players. i still have a little bit of money left there, not worried about keeping it or flipping it up because i'm tired of the software freezing up and not being able to log in, its happened SOOO many times with betonline and everytime it does when i speak to live chat i tell them how its a shame they're making/ taking money and can't have better software!BetOnline thanks for wasting my time and money yet AGAIN!!

betonline .merge

Ok there is nothing to say but stay away from betonline and merge!Bovada is the only option we may have,although heard some goodthings about 5dimes.I do know the software at betonline is by hero network.The crashes and freezes are being experienced by everyone except the bots!Have you ever noticed how the check/call is replaced by the fold on the river(does not make sense since they are losing rake if you misclick).Here is best options withdraw,erase,and forgetabout betonline! Still unsure read 8.Disclaimers on Betonline. Cheers!

What does anybody think about America's Cardroom. I tried it back when I saw the very first commercials. The play was so incredibly donkey that I eventually just stopped logging in to their site at all. And didn't put it back on my computer when I reinstalled all my software. Lately a couple of people have told me that I should check it out, so I reinstalled it, but I haven't played any tournies yet. Should I bother?

I think people are recommending ACR because they are supposed to be getting a new slick looking software client on WPN (the network they are on). I actually find their current software to be pretty fast although it is plain looking. People say ACR is quick and reliable for w/d, although I don't have any first hand experience on that subject.
I think the Betonline software client is the worse out there for American facing sites. I've also had problems with their client arbitrarily going down.

aside from getting a new look in the future,black chip poker also joined acr,as for the game play i find it softer than merge,the only bad thing is that i needs more tourneys thats the the one thing that kills them right now.

@BETONLINE lol havnt played there since that bull crap happened to made me start this thread lol if those of u play there and are getting paid than good for u, but F betonline.. merge or bovada best place in my opinion. mainly play at bovada lately, for awhile i was mainly on merge but after i cashed all but $100 i havnt been playing there much.. been building my bovada back up.
and IF some reason whomever reading this still decides to go with BETONLINE than just do mininum deposit and flip it up until you're ready to cash out and then if you dont hav any problems go ahead an play there lol but software and customer service =TERRIBLE.

Check this out,
I did some analyzing on the poker software, the flops , the turn, and the river, and the hands that were being played.
Here are my findings.
After 7056 hands that were analyzed by me a MIT graduate.
67.81% of the time there are doubles on the flop.
78.69% of the time when there is more then three people in the hand doubles hits the flop.
72.99% of the time the worst starting hand ends up winning the hand.
89.23% when you are dealt one of the five big starting hands, AA,KK,QQ,JJ,AK , someone else was dealt one of the five with 67.77% of the time the lower end hand wins.
48.49% of the time on the flop will come three of the same suite with 89.91% of someone hitting a flush.
23.00% of the time in a game you will see quads from three different people in a ten man tournament.
87.81% of the time when short stacked and your dealt a very good hand, AJ, A10,AQ,AK. and you go all in with one caller with a big stack, the big stack wins. 87.81% do you believe that one.

There is a lot more I could tell you people that I analyzed but you get the picture.
This site is rigged so bad that they don't even try to hide it, it takes someone like me to do the math and expose this cheating no good site.
Stay clear from this site ,trust me my math is always right.
Now go to poker odds and see the real odds on everything i just gave you, no where even close to what this crooked site is dealing to people.

I would like to see some proof.. IF it is indeed true I would contact their licensing agent... I wouldn't put it past them

That's disgusting, the site's more rigged than Zynga poker...
It's because of sites like these that poker gets a bad reputation, and partly why poker is still banned in many parts of the United States...

Betonline

I recently found bet online and signed up to play a little poker.but what i soon found out was the cards being dealt deffied common sense.I saw 3 straight hands with nothing but face cards on the table that got my attetion.As i was playing in the tourneys this became a reaccuring theme the hold night long.I noticed if i built up a pretty good stack i was ddealt crap pocket cards for 10 or 11 hands no face cards or pocket pairs.I for got to mention i hae played poker for forty years and have never seen cards fall the way they do at this site.It is clear to me their rng is not random at all and is being manipulated.I am dissapointed at my experience at this site ever thing i have learned in 54 years tells me not to ignore my common sense on this site.truly wish we had a site here in the usa which would be regulated then all these tricks and manipulation would not be going on.There is a lot more i could say but for afirst post this is enough folks dont go against you common sense.

But it was a very exciting game though :) In my opinion all poker networks are controlled and i write this as a lover of poker and i do go ok i even manage a profit and i love online poker it's such a shame that it is managed so poorly and unregulated well they try and make out it's regulated but it is not by an independent company and as for there random generator you seem like quite an intelligent guy and would understand the methods of control can be easily seen do this for your own interest, do a batch sample don't take 100 000 hands and say see it all looks so even do a batch sample of say 50x100 hands and see just how retarded these guys can be if it suits them, as for this they risk everything if they get caught mentallity lol they won't be getting caught 10 billion dollars that's how much profit pokerstars made a year and they also thumbed there noses at the US government i just love them for giving it to the american government but lets face it who is going to take these guys on ? not me that's for sure 10billion reasons and i like being alive.

No thats the problem its not regulated poker is a product same as a car or goods being sold to consumers and with goods comes regulations.So therefore their should be consumer protections but theres not.Frankly I think the countries that house these sites should step up and regulate these sites for the better of all countries.

Not at all surprised to hear this. Seems to me that 27off is as likely to win as AA at BetOnLine. The stupidest calls routinely win. And stupid calls are commonplace. I wonder...are half the "players" here room bots? I wouldn't invest a dime in this room.

Why would they reward the stupidest players by causing their miserable hands to beat out someone else's pocket AA or KK in freerolls? Think about it. Would someone who has yet to make a deposit and who routinely trounces other players pocket AA or KK by playing TRASH cards...be more or less likely to turn around and make a deposit? I think such a player could easily be suckered into thinking poker is all luck. Or maybe he could be lulled into thinking HE is a great poker player...and thinking how much more he could be making if he deposited, say, a hundred bucks.

That's the impression I get. Maybe BOL figures...hey, it's free...we can do whatever we want. I've never made a deposit here...so I don't know how they treat players who do.

I don't know why anyone plays on some of these sites.

A simple google search would come up with MANY negatives associated with certain sites. There was a post on 2p2 about someone being owed over 15k and they froze his account.

The only USA site that actually pays ASAP is Bovada.
