Count your lucky stars you can't play at the super-rigged Pokerstars.
Go ahead and slam me for saying it's rigged. After playing on it for years (but never being foolish enough to deposit money) nothing can possibly convince me otherwise.
I admit to taking $200 from them free money and having a free $30+
bankroll, but without the absurd number of bad beats -- usually river beats by the big stack when all in, I would be up a LOT more. I've got to the point where, I virtually sit out once I'm in the money because otherwise it would deal me AA and screw me on the river to a big stack 80% of the time or more.
You win fairly easily when you start out with the
odds playing out as they should or even sucking out more for you than normal. They hope to lure you into a serious
gambling addiction, but once they catch on that you're not going to make a deposit, winning gets much harder and being screwed become the norm. Dominating the opponent is almost a guarantee you'll lose, and be prepared to see your turn odds at 80% or better to win suddenly change to 0% when the river drops. It's ugly, but it's like water off a duck for me now. I can't remember the last time KK held up to win a pot for me.
For god's sake, don't deposit money at Pokerstars.
