Hi
I had posted a similar problem sometime back on this forum.
I have now concluded that it's not rigged per se.
It's called TILT.
That hits you and you lose a 4 of a kind to a str8 flush etc...
Now I am a full time free roller.
Play real money with what you win in freerolls.
No depositing.

Good alternative, as I said, I make my journeys without investing almost anything and I'm always in profit, so I can't complain, just because I can't become a professional yet ... but wait for me!

Regarding bots, it really is disgusting to play with bots. And they have different configurations which makes it difficult, each bot has its own pattern and I think they will adjust their game to the heroes as the sampling increases ... And what annoys me the most is that the rooms pretend that the bots are not their fault, when I think they are the ones who create them ...

Thanks.Bad beats and bad sites kinda are like hand and hand too. If it happens its conspiracy to 1 or the other. Be careful and dont play that site anymore. There are plenty of good ones for sure that take security serious ect. Good luck.

I have been playing on Global poker for years and you want to know something. I have done well there. Is the site perfect? Nope but is any site perfect? Nope. If you dont trust a site that is your opinion and you should not play there. The thing is there are al ot of people who play there and do well. There are professions who play and win there. If it was just rigged and all that other stuff no one would be winning and playing there. Personally its not my favorite site but I will continue to play there.

what site is this global poker? is GGpoker?
Because if it is I think it is ridiculous too, there is a question that intrigues me about the sites, the difference in deck ... because if the shuffle is random, the variance should be the same in all, because there are usually 9 players per table and one deck of 52 cards ... there are sites that I just don't play because it is so weird it always hits 2 outs always some sinister stops. GGpoker and PS I abandoned it is garbage .... everyone says that because the field is much bigger the variance increases, but I don't agree, because as I said above there are 9 players per table and 52 cards in the deck, and the situations we face in variance is on the table and not in the general field so sites with gigantic flow were not to have any difference ...
here we go, my favorite room is ACR followed by party poker and then 888, but even so there are several problems: ACR is undermined by bots and players so weak that there is no way to read the actions is just ridiculous. Party poker crashes too much and the field is rubbish too, and 888 doesn't even talk.

Maybe you shouldn't play online since you think most poker sites are "crap".
Frankly I don't agree with you, but I respect your opinion.

Good luck at the tables!

If your gonna suggest a site is rigged the first thing i would do is post the hand history. Any experienced player posts proof whenever discussing a hand. Without hand history its just a rant. I agree play is loose there, see alot of bad play to be honest.

Reading the comments, what I see is that there are many players who are generalizing unpleasant personal experiences. If you have had a bad experience on any website, I believe you can tell about that experience, and not try to ruin its reputation.

No free rolls

I am what Mr. Nero would call a difficult customer. I call out their bull whenever I see it. which of course gets the standard sorry for your luck response. But yesterday I was trying to buy into the jackpot sit and go and normally it takes you to the table to wait for game to start. This time it did not. So I thought maybe I grazed the wrong icon. Then all the sudden right before I tried to buy into a normal sit and go I had three games start at once.
I'm new so I can't play two at the same time let alone three. But I bought in I was going to try. But the tab I can use to switch rooms was not working. The tab right next to it was for check fold or bet.
I contacted the site and let them know. It took all day for them to get back to me and today when I logged in I have zero freerolls available. site wide. Normal I can search for them in the search bar. But I input freeroll and get no matches.
When I first started at global not long ago. I was told to bet to my right only call to me left. Meaning newer players were placed to the right more veterans players to the left. This switches after you realize you are onto it.
Now that I am veteran though I get raised to all the time by new names or people I know for a fact are new and still they'll win. But when I just started I couldn't raise to a older player or Imy raise provided them their card.
But today's issue takes the cake. I hav spent a fair amount for f money with this site. But it is clear the site is rigged to keep everyone's money. And will never get mine back.

Been playing on global for years. Its not rigged at all and is a fun safe site to play on, If your not comfortable playing there that's fine but dont bash the site. We are limited of what we can play on and I would rather play there than not play poker at all.

Global poker....providing the least amount of security possible since 2016....LOL
This site is like Publishers Clearing House.......you pay your subscription and if you are randomly chosen then you get to win some! If not, crow it will be.

El póquer online es muy difícil, se juegan muchas manos y es obvio que vas a recibir malas jugadas.Sí, estoy de acuerdo que los ganadores ya los decide el servidor y debemos aprovechar cuando estemos entre ellosAll games run by a computer are destined to win a few and lose many, this is where there the casino gain.

I wrote this last summer and completely dumped Global Poker. There is a litany of complaints about how Global Poker would simply ignore players who would complain about bots, collisions, failure to pay, and a myriad of other issues. On-line poker simply does not have any integrity. There has been proven cheating in the past with the most reputable poker sites, and these so-called secure games cannot seem to curtail artificial bots a player collusion. In the end, the only ones who win are those who own and operate the sites. Some schmuck who will a few hundred grand or a million in some tournament is literal peanuts compared to the hundreds of millions if not billions of dollars these dodgy offshore poker sites bring in for their owners. Finally, all of the poker sites are set up in 3 world banana republics where corruption proliferates and both politicians and regulators are in the back pockets of the white collared criminals that run their shady companies offshore.
Hello, Maybachs600! Thanks for advice! :cool: I will not to play on the Global Poker,:rolleyes:
because me enough the other Poker sites...:smile:

I don't have that problem, he won't let me 🤣 I probably can't play from my country anymore or I don't know. But reading the opinions of the others, I think it's all 😁

Is Global Poker rigged

I see this all the time in Cardschat, This site uses Bots, or that site is rigged, this one favors the big stacks etc, etc. If you feel that a poker site is crooked, don't play on it! It is that simple.
I have played on a fair few over the years and one thing I have never done is deposit my own cash on them. I play purely for the fun and taking part in a game I enjoy. Sure it takes time to build up a bank-roll from Free-rolls but it is possible, I have done it on a few sites.
If I enjoy the layout of the tables and the graphics I keep playing, but if I get bored with them I would move on to another site or return to a site I have enjoyed in the past. Pokerstars will always be one of my favorite sites and they always seem to be one of the best.
The beauty of my system is simple if I lose to a bad beat or suck-out on the river I move on to the next game or take a break for a day or two. These things happen on-line and in Live games I have been on the losing end of miracle cards hitting the Turn or River and also witnessed and been the player to hit these miracle cards.

When the fun Stops, STOP!


My friend set me straight on this topic way back in the day before black friday.
He has a PHD in computer science and he basically said it would take a computer farm the size of a warehouse to rig the game against one particular player.
Recent developemnts in AI have produced some pretty sharp poker bots that learn from playing against itself.
Again, it would take a computer farm to run said software.
If you had 600 blade servers with quad core xeon processors you can run artificial intelligence programs that can beat pro players.
That being said it would be a waste of money and electricity to use it on 5 dollar sit and goes.
A poker bot running on a desktop computer somewhere will not have the advanced machine learning needed to develop into a viable player.
Poker bot software that runs on a single CPU is no better than the guy that programmed it.
online poker isn't rigged and you aren't being singled out by a super user or a poker bot.
Losing is part of the game and sick beats are also part of the game.
I have been playing poker for about 25 years and I have seen it all, everything from four aces being beat by a straight flush to a straight flush being beat by a higher straight flush.
My computer science friend did tell me that there is no way to make a computer program a truely random number generator, that the algorythms used are close but not truely random.
I play live and I play online and aces full of jacks being beat by four jacks is just part of the game.
The key is to learn from your mistakes and take ownership of the situation.
Don't blame the site for your losses blame yourself.
I lost with 4 of a kind to a higher 4 of a kind just last night.
It happens.
