PhilHellmuth 0 Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 this was one of the strangest experiences of my life, has anyone seen anything like this?i usually play stars, party, FT. i started an account at UB. i started playing some 6 max lo limit holdem. on 2 consecutive days i played short sessions where for like 13 out of 15 hands i was dealt 2 broadway cards, always better than QT.strange enough but it didnt end there. almost every complete board was all broadway cards by the end. every board was s/th like KJJKQ or KQTJK or AQQTK. and freakishly often i would flop either the nut straight with AJ on flop of KQT only to see another KT and a lone K win. or have QJ on flop of AJJ and always see 2 other broadways that gave opp a straight or bigger boat or whatever. by the last couple of times i felt like i was in the twilight zone. itd be the same thing every hand - raise with 2 big, flop a very big hand, and know for sure that 2 more broadways were coming to beat me. i was really starting to wonder if i was playing some holdem variation where the only cards in the deck are broadway. so strange.anyone seen anything like this at UB?

PhilHellmuth 0 Posted December 9, 2005 Author Share Posted December 9, 2005 omg, the funny thing is that when i said i was dealt boradway for 13 out of 15, i didnt say all 15 cuz i figured i had to be remembering wrong or that ppl just woudnt believe me. LMAOi just never imagined the possibility that when i go into the holdem column at a big name site, it would be a wierd made up game. well that caost me a nice 150 bucks or so. thanks for the explanation.and to the first guy who responded - STFU retard, u probly didnt even know this, and were extremely excited at any opportunity to boost ur incredibly but justifiably low self esteem.

kdogg 0 Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 I was playing this game the other day which was kinda like 5-card draw, except you draw 3 times. Anyway, the table was full of fish. You wouldn't even believe some of the hands that were being shown. 6-high, 7-high -- just horrendous. I was making boats and flushes all over the place, and these donkeys were calling me with nothing. I made a killing, although I think the server crashed cuz my balance is wrong.(sw) Link to post Share on other sites

LuckyMcCatcher 0 Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 another idiot bites the dust.i love it when people play royal holdem and don't even know itDude hes not really an idiot. I play on UB sporadically and accidentally got on one of these tables. They are not labeled well and there is no mention of them anywhere. If wasnt for a thread that I briefly perused here I would never have figured it out. SInce I was multing, It took me like 20 mins to figure it out anyway. At the time I was seriously thinking. "Ok now this is rigged, no doubt if any game were rigged this is the one." Then I saw Royal H'em at the top of the screen and put 2 and 2 together Link to post Share on other sites

Emptyeye 0 Posted December 10, 2005 Share Posted December 10, 2005 I have to ask this:I don't play on UB, but as this is hardly the first time I've heard of such a thing occuring, are these "royal Hold 'Em" tables really THAT poorly labeled that this should be happening as often as it does?

Of course, when you play a Kill table, it pops up and warns you, which Royal Hold 'Em doesn't do. Link to post Share on other sites

This is a problem for beginners or people new to the site. I lost 80 buck in 15 minutes getting of course great hands wondering why the board came running double pair every time or running straight, etc.ps. 1k posts finally Link to post Share on other sites
scottyb007 0 Posted December 10, 2005 Share Posted December 10, 2005 this game is quite a good game on UB, just sit there and wait for the fish to come.....when you sit down and analyze this game, it's all a simple mathematical equation. just sit down and watch the game, and if you play it right, you'll make money even without the fish....... good times with the fish though Link to post Share on other sites
