Default I F'ING HATE POKERSTARS!

So I been trying to practice my limit game, reading books and playing low limit game sto get ready for a trip to vegas. Today I play for about 90 minutes at pokerstars after havong played there 2 days ago and losing 15 bucks. I get qq I raise, two callers, guy hits a flush, KK same thing, the whole time not one winning hand, a lot of getting rivered. IT REALLY SUCKED. This was my second session like this in a row and soon I was down 6-7 bucks at a 25/50 cent table. What kind of RNG do they fing have there. So I went and played a penny no limit game. Put in $5. Lost about 50 cents playing aq os to a flush board in a suit I had none of and two other callers to my solid raise preflop. Then I get a pair of deuces and it is raised back to me so I call and its 3 way at the flop. the flop is , bb raises to 8 cents so I go all in since at best he has a draw from the look of it.

Of course he actually has pocket 9s.

I promptly cash out every penny (about $99 - down $30 total) I have in the stinking site and swear never to return except to play my FPPs away. I just wont do business with a site whose RNG deosnt distribute winning hands in a random way, in other words the occasional winning hand to me. THATS IT FOR THAT DAMN SITE!

Default Re: I F'ING HATE POKERSTARS!

I actually have a weird little anecdote from one of yesterdays WSOP freerolls at FullTilt....

To my left sits a guy who is playing some variation of the KillPhil strategy...He is basically pushing any top 30% hand pre-flop, any two suited, any ace and any combination of facecards.

I triple up on the first hand with an Acehigh straight...then I sit back and watch this dude win every single coinflip....

I am on the button with KJs and it's folded around to me....I just call to see if' he'll push...

sure as hell....so I fold...thinking I will pick a spot to trap him (by this time he has around 10KL on level 1 ...)

Next hand I get K9o in the SB and push into him....he calls and doubles me up....

I sit back for a whole level waiting on a hand that I can trap him with....

all the while he wins every single allin...with 32s A4 you name it.

Finally I pick up AK on the CO with one caller in mid pozish (one might argue that AK isn't good enough to trap with...but against this guy it is a monster...)

KillPhil pushes from the button - mid-pozish calls with a pair of nines...I gladly call...Phil has A2 suited....

Flop A27...

He busts both of us. Online poker is rigged. When someone wins 100% coinflips it's hard being good.

I realize that, but for some reason I did at one time do better at TITAN than FRED. Maybe it is Psychological. May fred didn't want me at his site. It just seemed tah as soon as I made the switch, hands got a little beeter and more consistant.
