2AceSuited 0 Posted April 23, 2005 Share Posted April 23, 2005 I had planned to stay away from the site forever, but they gave me $20, so why not? Let's see if I can crush the ol' .50/1 crowd.First hand ... AK hearts. Hey, off to a good start and I'm UTG+1.UTG raises. I reraise. Half the table calls 3 bets cold. The button caps. So now we have 6 people seeing the flop after a capped pre-flop.It comes down 2 spades, 2 hearts, Ace clubs. Not too shabby. UTG bets. I reraise. One cold caller on my left, button reraises. We all call.Turn is a 7 diamonds. UTG checks, I bet, cold caller folds, button raises, UTG reraises (hm), I fold (someone has me beat), button caps, UTG calls.River is a Queen of diamonds. They cap betting on the river. UTG turns over 77 and button turns over black 2's for 4 of a kind.I know people tell you to be patient, you'll win in the long run. Yeah? Not on that f'ing site. Not for me, anyway. I'm averaging 6 BB per 100 hands overall between Bet 365 1/2 and InterPoker 1/2.I pissed through my $20 from PP in 25 minutes between that hand, and people beating my trips and 2 pair with runner runner flushes and straights. In conclusion, PartyPoker eats ass. Good day. Link to post Share on other sites
chantro 0 Posted April 23, 2005 Share Posted April 23, 2005 Are you mad because someone beat you with a much better hand, and had you dominated on the flop? I'm not sure I understand why anything is eating ass. Link to post Share on other sites
theresa113 0 Posted April 23, 2005 Share Posted April 23, 2005 I can't stand the lame graphics but I am loving Party Poker. I am making some $$$. Not a lot, but I am ahead. I just have to be more dicipline and and notget lazy and play stupid like the rest of the folks on there. Link to post Share on other sites
Socrates 0 Posted April 23, 2005 Share Posted April 23, 2005 Yet for another I'll share my favorite line...if you can't beat a bad player, you'll never beat a good one.Also, I refer to PP as an ATM, whenever I need cash, I just go to PP, it's like taking candy from a baby. There are a lot of people that will tell you PP is one of the softest games out there, if not the softest game. Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Anonymous Posted April 23, 2005 Share Posted April 23, 2005 you are not good it is that simple. PArty Poker is the greatest site inthe world. By far the easiest! stop playing .50-1.00 that is not poker. You have to expect bad beats for that price. ANybody will call for .50 cents if i am in the hand calling wiht 67 of hearts and you raise i am still going to call for .50 cents more. Try playing no liimit. .50/1.00 is not poker Link to post Share on other sites

Binbs 0 Posted April 23, 2005 Share Posted April 23, 2005 I dont know about others, but I like prima poker a lot. People are just as bad on Prima as on any other site imo. Party in fact becomes very tight during the evenings - At least from my experience.On Prima poker and Ladbrokes, the hands go thru so fast that you can get a lot more hands in. More hands in means more money Link to post Share on other sites

In conclusion, PartyPoker eats ass. Good day.Yeah, same thing happened to me yesterday. They put $50 in my account and I wasn't about to play 500 hands to cash it out so I figured I'd play some 3/6 with it. Saw a flop with rags from the BB and picked up a straight draw. Hit it on the turn (and some guy started betting really agressively, 3 players for a capped bet on the turn) and then the board goes and pairs on the river. So figuring my agressive bettor for a set I check and call and sure enough, deuces full of fours. Well there goes about 3/4 of my $50.I know it's not really rigged (well I can't prove it but I just don't think there is any solid proof to the contrary) but it seems that every time I get free money from them I wind up in a crappy pot like that one.

I realized you are 1oo% correct. Thank you for setting me straight. I know he had the correct odds. But the 5 other people in the pot with junk hands like J9 clubs, Q8, Ace 2 ... they didn't. Oh, and to the retard that told me to stop playing .50/1? When PP gave me $20, it was all that was in my account. Maybe I should have gone to a $5/10, posted the blinds, and then gone off to ass bang your mom. Better?Now I'm going to post every bad beat I get handed to me. Link to post Share on other sites

Fold my BB when no one raised the bet? I flopped an open-ended straight draw and called a single bet and hit the straight on the turn. What would you have me do at this point? Not cap the bet with the nuts (which I had at this point) and give him a free look at the river because he'll call with any outs at all?Not to be a jerk but that but the board did hit me like a champ, I bet my hand properly and I lost. Not a bad beat (not a really bad one anyway) and I'm not whining about it. I was simply making a comment about how I played a hand correctly and Party Poker had perfect timing to give some yahoo deuces full of fours right after they gave me $50.

2AceSuited 0 Posted April 23, 2005 Author Share Posted April 23, 2005 I didn't even expect replies. Just needed to vent and couldn't be bothered to create a blog just for bitching.Anyways, yeah ... it couldn't have been 2 black deuces, but he did have Quads.I wasn't pulling people's exact holdings when I said someone cold calling with Ace 2 since obviously that was impossible, but you know what I mean. Well ... judging from some of these replies, no you don't, but I don't care about those people.Point is, for me, I have far greater success elsewhere. InterPoker was my example. I've played 2000 hands there and am currently averaging 5.5 BB/100 and I think that's ok.Ditto bet 365, only a smaller sample size of hands. I seem to get bad beat far more often at PP than anywhere else. Their bonuses and tournaments suck, too. That's another reason I quit playing there. Link to post Share on other sites
