When I first joined SkyPoker i made alot of money so no real issue with it, but that doesn't change the fact it let me down. Hands up... i'm a grinder and sometimes lose days on the tables and Sky Poker seemed very good at first BUT I started to notice cracks in the software... The amount of times aces lose - It has been a very long time since i have seen aces win when the chips are committed pre-flop??? (Just a note)... If you're in the lead on the flop of roughly 70:30 and commit your chips YOU WILL LOSE example - Lower pocket against your top pair, let's say you checked KQ down after flopping a Q and then someone fires a pot size behind you with 9's if you choose to play aggressive and re-raise all in (70 - 80%) of the time YOU WILL LOSE. This isn't up for debate these are the stats run over a months time, it's like it punishes you almost, for playing incorrectly or over-aggressively. I've seen some of the most unlikely runner runner's 4 or 5 times in the same hour... things i haven't seen happen, in 19years of playing, in the same year. Although not all sites are like this Sky seems to be so

    alot of other sites are worse to thought..... ipoker sites......

    live play is a total different thing you dont get near the amount of hands played online as live thus the reson we see alot of things we wouldent see in live play 

    just keep grinding away mate..thats all we can do

    I just played for an hour 6 tabling and had AA 3 times and KK once, I got them all in preflop. They all won! It must be fixed now.

    I once had aces cracked 13 times on the trot online.  Then again I have never been dealt a pocket pair over sevens in three days of play at Sky live events and the last time I played live I ran Queens into Kings pre followed by Kings into Aces in one tournament.

    The conclusion, nothing is rigged but Jesus hates me.  Hopefully He liked his present this year.
