Suck outs and river chasers

Dance40

Sky poker tilt is real. So many river hits and players chasing. Its getting to hard for me to stay. I play tight and get sucked out everytime. I play loose and win %10 of races. New player advantege or poker softwear cheats im not sure, but i have written down 7 days of hands and only win %10 even though im normally pot favourite. Time for me to call it a day and play else where. Players seem to sit out and call back in at perfect time then always seem to win. Their magic call with j7 atfer not playing a hand for a few rounds. Seen few thing to not add up to often. Sky poker favours certain i dont know but it feels like it to me.

Amazing how poker players always blame the site or software.

One thing for sure, poker shows our character.

You could say that 33rpm slow played his hand there @tomgoodun, couldn't you?

Nearly up to your standards that one eh @Tikay10?

I’m not good enough to comment on the pro’s and otherwise of re-raising with 9’s in SB in early stages of tournament after an early position raise, I must admit the calling my shove ( after my raise on the flop) was fist pumpingly great for me ( almost 😉)

OP's post is born out of frustration, but I have some empathy for him. He's right when he says Sky feels different. That does not mean it is different and anyone holding this opinion may well just be under the effect of confirmation bias.

The relative difficulty of importing Sky hands into a database makes thorough comparison difficult and thus we are just left with what we feel. For example, I feel I hit quads on Sky at a rate astronomical compared to other sites. But maybe I don't and just think I do. I chose this example so as not to choose a negative, but there certainly feels a negative side too.

However, if there were some strange RNG behaviour then it benefits me as much as it does not - Checking my P/L since 2018 and it's very healthy and in line with where I would expect it to be.

Hi all. Poker tilt is real. Maybe site tilt is also a thing. I have been playing on GG poker and it feels diffrent, i dont guess the river correct anymore, their are still suck outs but it feels like many hands hold. I dont think sky is rigged but do feel the programme runs diffrent. So as its probably all in my head, that must mean its site tilt I am suffering with.

site sucks at the moment when hands like these win?
