so its not just the fish

[LukeSilver]

Interesting one I played a quite a bit of poker with one of the big guys from pokerstars. as in one of those players with a few final table sunday mill scores on the board and the guy won it once.

was at a local casino for an £80 buyin.

The guy was good and we had a had a lot of tango I was on his table for pretty much the entire tournament and he went after me so I spotted a few exploits and went back after him. I held my own. It ended up three handed with just 3 of us left I ended up going out in 3rd and cashing for £400 (there was a deal on final table that altered the pay out structure. )

The guy said That my place was fair as I am a lot better then most of the players there but that my game still has quite a few weaknesses.

I stand by my call with 88 but need to check that.

anyway what shocked me is the guy actually said a few things not accusing the site of been rigged but funny algorithms he claims to have folded AA pre flop before and said that if a low stakes player satalited into the sunday millions theyd never let them win.

these two things sound highly suspect and make made me suspicious of him been a top player but i witnessed his solid play and saw his username myself (did not make a note of it before people ask)

my point isnt to claim a rig but more that even the best players sometimes get illogical or superstitious. I still dont believe he folded aces pre though.

Everyone has thoughts opinions and superstitions but until they are proven they are just that. Myths. The fact that it is a well respected person holds some value to others for some reason, maybe because they have been around for awhile.. but the fact of the matter is they have no more insight or knowledge of the inner workings of the sites than anyone else.

If it isn't proven it's just a myth. people can believe what they want, but it's usually extra stress for no reason.

fishing its only interesting al a final table as example, not at first, because the luck run out fast, i think you can play wisely until the end, the final table is 50% fishing.
