In Response to any1 else sick of getting completely robbed : hi, im new to this site (few weeks) and I deposited some cash and got my bankroll upto 600 pound, I then withdrew 300 and I was amazed on how many times I was getting beat and I had the remaining cash that I left on here just wiped away from players hitting there rivers, also I went through long stage not hitting anything ,,, talk about the game changing, it changed that much I could taste it, let alone notice it. my dad told me its because im a new player and these sites always seem to give you a good win to get you hooked, I don't know how true that is. I also played the 10k bh tourney and was really looking forward to it, I got k 10 suited and flopped a 10 only to be beat by a flush on river then the next hand I get was ak clubs, I went all in on the button and someone called me with pocket queens and hit there quads, and that's another thing ive noticed on here, just how many players hit quads, just so unreal its beyond belief..i think someone ought to test the rng on this site properly because it just isn't poker, its just a piece of software to thieve off players and give a selective few the priority on this site. I know this may sound to you that im whining but I really do have a reason to. Posted by nemesis22
I demand that sky give me my "big win" for joining because i seemed to have skipped straight to the bit where they take it back!
My dad told me to never go out with girls whose tatoos weren't spelt right by the way but i always found them to be the most fun!

In Response to Re: any1 else sick of getting completely robbed : Still makes no sense!! there are loads of sites that offer low buy in tournaments but you choose the one you think has dodgy software! Posted by jdsallstar
I think you will find I said low cost & small field (important factor).
Makes no sense to you? I wasn’t aware that was necessary.
I totally agree with this post - happens all the time and everyone talks about it - get it in good and come of worse - hands like aa v 10 10 - 10's hit a 4 card flush
I know I hit the suck out blow as much as get sucked out on but it makes poker no fun - once a day is ok but the amount of hands that hit massive in 6 handed is stupid and unrealistic

One piece of poker advice?: Laugh as soon as you get a bad beat - instantly makes you realise its a game and you will get your moment another day

All the posters in this thread that think it's rigged clearly lack any basic understanding of maths, and also a lack the basic fundementals of poker.
Coming on here using 7 or 8 hands ( hands that have not even been posted at that ) as conclusive proof really is just laughable and makes you look a bit "thick".

Again I'm sure there's sites out there that have smaller player bases too. As I'm not really a tournament player and I'm happy with sky I've no reason to look around. If I thought the product I was using was of a substandard I wouldn't be posting this I'd have been off long ago. I certainly wouldn't hang around and moan about it like some sort of petulant 5 year old. It's like going to a restaurant (daily going by your sharkscope) having steak and complaining everyday that they don't cook it right!
It just sounds like insanity to continually (your entire posting history) moan and moan about how the product is so bad but then you continue to use it.
Yes it sounds like madness to me, makes no sense at all and sounds like something someone with very little intelligence or severe mental problems would do. That's my opinion. Whether you feel it's "necessary" to convince me otherwise and change my opinion is completely up to you. The idea of a forum is to share opinions and I've just shared mine with you.
i sometimes wonder why sky let these complete and utter spanners slate the site and question its integrity. id 100% ban the lot of them!! bring back area 51 and keep these loonatics out of my eyeline please. Posted by THEROCK573

So defending the site gives you carte blanche to say what you want,,does it??

With regard to new players running well and then the site 'turns against them' could it be that when they are new no one has any reads on them. Give good players a few days or even hours and they may well have them sussed out, hence their 'win' rate soon disappears. Just a thought. Posted by Enut
^This^ I've seen quite a few players come to the site and get off to a winning start straight away. The bad beats come and the wins dry up they start screaming fix. But think about. You play a tourney with a 100 runners and win it the first time. 99 oppos didn't know your game. 2nd time you playmaybe 20 players know your game. 3rd time maybe 30. And so on.And thats all there is to it.
Apologies for it not being as funny as some posts so here's a joke. When we were kids we had haircuts on Xmas day. It was the only way we could afford turkey with all the trimmings.
In Response to Re: any1 else sick of getting completely robbed : Tell you what! How about... you leave me alone, dont comment on or about any of my posts/hands and or anything to do with me! NOBODY cares about what you think of me and my opinions! i can say and post what ever i like, whenever i like unless Sky poker bans or blocks me! when the forum is called Brags, BEATS and Variance, dont be surprised that many a player will post about there beats. Now please, i ask you, oh great wonderful smart man! Can u find a way to please, in the nicest possible way GO AWAY Posted by Waddell93
I suggest you do yourself a favour and read the stickies in this forum. The forum might be entitled Brags Beats Variance but that does not entitle people to post complete rubbish regarding Sky's integrity.
And I quote:

Here's an idea for you: Start keeping a record of everything. Every time you go all in (or put the majority of your stack into the middle) load up pokerstove or proPokerTools and find out how much equity you have. Do this for at least 10,000 hands. Note that you can't pick and choose hands - you have to do it with every single hand. Obviously you can't do this mid-session w/o losing concentration but if you go into My Sky Poker > Hand History, you can load up every single hadn that you have played. When you have recorded enough hands use some maths to determine if you are running +ev or -ev and work out the probability of running this above or below ev. Then post a thread on poker chat FAO sky to prove you have a point.
just wondering if any1 else gets told the same lies from sky poker by the hands it puts out, totally unreal flops and bad calls from fishing players leads to a combination of aahhhhhhhhhhhss and grrrrrrrrrrss etc, and these players are just gambling to my mind, just calling flops and raises with any cards all the time and yes the odd "I fancy that" is ok we all do it but every hand I think not, you know sky has a vegas website for that.

You would ban people that criticise the product and when you abuse people they will know about it??? Can you suck your own d ick as well?
