honestly cannot think of a game or a day ive been on here and something stupid has happened fair enough its not the losing which winds me up its the way of it , i for one im sick of raising 3 - 4 big blinds with premium hands just for people to call with any old rubbish and end up making 2 pairs or 3 of a kinds and taking my hole stack it really is like the dumber and stupider you play on this site the more luck and rewards you get , im not tilting playing stupid or changing my game after losses but the past week or two on here ive never seen such disgusting luck and stupid play being rewarded vs me ever and its really starting to make me hate the game , the site and the players on it , dont know if you to stick to my game or just start calling blind and hoping for luck as it works for others any help would be necessary .

1. Poker, like all the best games, has a good balance between luck and skill. If bad plays never got rewarded, I would never make money from bad players. We all get frustrated with the way the cards fall sometimes. But if people didn't call with any old rubbish, I would still have to work
2. Your name is offensive. Sky really need to crack down on people using offensive racial slurs in their name
Is a good word
Calling with any two works 28% of the time... everytime
I'm really intrigued by the suggestion of Sky Poker using "a cheaper RNG".
I wonder how that works? Who exactly gains an advantage? Does it somehow favour better players, or deliver more flushes & straights maybe? Only shuffles half the pack, perhaps, to save on electricity costs?
We can bring this line into poker easier than anything else. In each decision we have 3 options, fold/call(or check)/or raise, This is literally all we control. These 3 little things. Each of these 3 decisions effect the outcome of the hand.
Everything else, from the hand we're dealt, to the board and our opponent is out with our sphere of control. So to use a hand as an example I played the other day, I got a guy to stack 150bb on the turn with nothing but a straight draw. No live cards etc. So I've got a 300bb pot here with an 81% chance of winning, according to the calculator. Now on this occassion the opponent got there, but ignoring that, what have we managed within our control. We've got an opponent to put all their chips in with J high - of 6 high if we're just counting their cards. By our realms of control we've struck the jackpot. But the opponent still has 19% meaning that 1 time in 5 roughly we're going to lose out on that massive pot. But we can't focus on that. What we can focus on is the decisions we made through the hand and look at the positives. In this instance and I think this is a great hand to look at hense using this as an example, we've extracted every single penny out of this hand that we can and thus over the course we run this spot a million times we make alot of chips/money.
Try not to worry about anything else, what the opponent is doing, thats their choice, what the board brings, see if theres a way you can lose less in a given spot, or if you've not made enough, or if you've got every single penny and got ul. The latter is the best case scenario because if thats the case we're printing.
Investing time into how to play the correct ranges from certain positions and cbet frequency etc... is an investment
However those who don't see this unless naturally talented at formulating strategies will never prosper.
Poker is very much like the normal economy where 5% of the population make 90% of the money... do you want to work to be in the 90%? Cool get to it. Do you just want to play and have fun... Great.. poker is a **** of a game and good for cognitive development... do you want to put too much money on the line without any real understanding of variance or the skill aspect and instead moan about the rng, luck, how other people choose to play... then you probably need to reasses you priorities .
You won't be getting your money back your 30 days has expired.
Nothing to see here move on.
@TheEdge949
A set of deuces is the nuts - except for 4 better sets, all the flushes & all the straights...
what 'we see' in the 'deep end'
no rhetoric, just the Poker
might be something to see, today
2 hours deep, plenty outs, impossible call, was it the flopped straight flush
the Oracle Above, at pains to highlight the number of 'outs'
more than fair enough, perhaps a comment or two, on this then
2 1/4 hours deep, 10 runners left, just the spot you play disciplined poker waiting for, like snapping off the All In on the flop, 6s On v 9s Against ( 1/6 v 9/1 to win hand)
but that'll be just Variance, rofl
Todays 06.30 £5.50 bounty hunter, near an hour deep, FT back to back hands (enjoy)
you might as well see the 'small stacks exit hand, lol,who flopped top two pair!
bh, 25k + stack v 2k stack @ 14.01& same player
3 way All In @ 14.03 same player
(turn river runner runner spade flush to the K)
Above, just the Au Derve
The main course,which knocks the above into a 'cocked hat' for you to enjoy in one's natural habitat, beats & variance.
if I could be so bold, below is reference a different debate, back in March
(space aliens)
think he just might, now? should he seek proof, tis in the rail 🤔
