On the bubble...

Just wondering does anybody here subscribe to the view that some site's software puts out extra premium hands on the bubble to help try and burst it?? not giving a view either way, just wondering people's reactions...

Why would sites care when the bubble bursts?

It's obvious Rob, the sooner the bubble bursts the more monies the evil internet poker sites get, its simple maths!

If that is true... I appear not to be getting my fair share...

In fairness, with software such as pokertracker, it would be easy enough to spot hands that apppeat more than their fair share

I guess this is an OK place for this question: Is there any piece of software that will look through all of your starting hands for a session and tell you if you were card dead/running well, and maybe a step further to how you ran in terms of what you flopped to. I think it'd be interesting to see.

shoutman

Well if you looked through pokertracker you could work it out for yourself, seeing how often you got premium hands...

also I think there is a little add on program for pokertracker which works out how often you flopped sets when you had a pair preflop.

aye but big cards were coming out all night!surely the equity lies in smaller cards there when everyone has each others outs! or maybe just fold? Id be delighted if everyone takes each other out with a cooler Bosch would be proud of.

Turning up the "handometer" up to "Extreme suckout" so that not only do players have the annoyance of being knocked out, outside the money they also get knocked out in the most eyepopping, vein bursting manner possible?

Im loving that player retention plan, was it written by acme poker rooms . com ?
