Just had an hour and half with me ol' mate 'MILANS' heads up. Very, very simple scenario. MILANS will call any bet at hi lo, any size.
So If you have a board of 2s 3s 4 d and you hold As 5s 6c 7c and he bets out max (which he will do regardless of his holding) and you raise the max,.... he will never fold a pair of 4's for example.... or indeed anything... hes in.
So this is very very simple at slow blinds and PL.... just fold until you have a hand that you want to play big, no marginal calls, no calling all his max raises preflop unless you have a good starting hand.
You could not lose against MILANS with patience shown. Now he may split the odd one, with some amazing luck, but with patience on a slow structured PL game, you can pick him off at will.
The result with MILANS however is always 2-2, 3-3. Always.
He needs two 8's, turn river? He gets two 8's..... over and over and over and over.
This is online poker.
Just impossible.

A player that will call your all ins with one pair (often just bottom pair), holding no low on an all low board for a few hours, multiple hands.... guy wins 5-3 in games....
Whatever you require sir, we are here to serve.... quite appallingly in your face obviously not mathematically possible......
Is it the site or the player? It has to one or the other, cos that was just as alarming as it gets....
Stop playing, content in the thought that you have beaten online PLO8 and maybe spend your energy on chess or something else that doesn't cause you so much aggravation.
Along with graphs certain players over thousands of games, that given the way they are playing, is clearly an impossibilty... if you choose to ignore individual hand examples, fine... you cant ignore winning graphs that extreme loose aggressive players are achieving.
You obviously aren't doing as well as you used to.
If you're only getting 2-2 or 3-3 results from your games, you will be losing out to the Rake...... so vote with your feet, and play on another site, instead of just boring us constantly with your theories.
Even if it's enhanced hands .......so what. Everyone gets as many winning hands from behind as when they're in front..... as seen when you play LIVE with plastic cards. You just don't see it when you win from behind 'coz you think you're entitled to win every hand you play due to your supposed ability, and the fact that you think you're better than everyone you play.
Maybe you should realise that any hand that gets to the River, will maximise the chance of the other player winning
GOOD LUCK with whatever you decide to do...... but I recommend touring the sites, playing each one for 2 - 3weeks at a time
There is not a site that exists, that could survive providing just an authentic poker experience. Show me a site that doesnt have a casino, hyper games, all in one hand games. There is no demand for it.
Sites can only survive by giving the majority of punters exactly what they want at that point in time.
At this point in time, they want excitement, they want quick games, they want to win in extremely unlikely circumstances, they want to see twists and turns... there is a massive demand that saw sites produce a £55 'russian roulette' game just to be dealt 5 2 off, that beats AK in one all in hand and all they have to do is watch and not make a decision.... This should give you a clue to what the majority of players want these days from a poker site.
There is no interest in hands for a player calls off 3 streets of value bets and loses.... they are not going to retain players... the majority of which have been cleverly identified now as high gambling adrenaline junkies... with endless normal hands.
Laws of averages say you will be in one from the outset. Can you by your play outsmart the Computer. In Tournaments it's now Bingo Bongo fun for Rec's not Reg's
Do you think poker will suffer from the new kids on the block type poker. !
But no he has an extremely random Nut flush, Nut lo draw and gets both......
So beating MILANS ahould be a formality, but im not beating this guy in a session ever.
How very odd....
He cant, of course win this game, or any game, unless he gets constant things like an ace flush draw against a queen flush draw... and then despite me having 2 blockers, still getting said flush..... In a heads up game......
