Today I’ve participated in two different free rolls. In both of them, while I had a good position I lost in one all in (with an excellent hands). The scenario was similar in both hands. I’m suspicious that these websites (poker888 and pokerstars) are not fair. I believe what I say in the following is impossible to happen in one day:
Pokerstars: I had 9-3, I was bb and just checked. Two others joined the call. Flop was 9-3-2. I was two pair with top pairs, and there were two diamonds on flop, so to avoid possible diamond draws, I raised about 6bb. I also had one diamond. The next person went all in (around 50bb) the guy after that called, then I also called. The first raiser had 9K, the other one had 2 small diamonds (2-6 I believe), and then guess what, he got flush in river.
The next example happened in 888poker. I had average stake size (4k, bb=150). I had JK, in dealer position. I called bb and join the pot, 4 others in the game. Then flop was JJQ and two of them were spades. I already had set, possible str8 draw. sb raised one bb. Everyone called, but I didn’t want to slow play, since the pot was good enough and I didn’t want to let someone with 2-3 spades win the hand. So I went all in. Two players called, and both of them had spades. I lost in river when they hit the flush.
Both of these events happened in free rolls. Except when it comes to real money, maybe in one third of MTT games that I play I reach final table. Happened to me to lose flush with AK high to a straightflush, but these cases that I‘ve explained above, both of them in the same day sounds quite suspicious. Specially the case of 888poker.
