paddy power poker

bignob7 · 31-08-2011 11:55pm #1

i started on pp about a week ago and ive now lost roughy 300euro on it,at first i just thought it was bad luck but the more i played the more the same things started to happen.for example i had aq and the flop was 35q,i went all in and got called by pocket nines,by now i know the weaker hand on the flop will 99% of the time beat the stronger hand on the flop on pp and it did,he hit a 9 on the river.this happens over and over again unless you have a small stack and it will let you win.if you can figure out how the site works someone could make a fortune because this site is crazy.in another instance i had pocket kings and someone went all in with q9 the flop was kq3 the turn was a q and the river was a q,this sort of thing happens too often at this site and id like to know if anyone know whats up.im by no means an outstanding player but i think the hands are not random and there are paddypower players playing that have inside info on how it works or something.i think a lot of the calls that are made by people that have no right to call normaly are stooes or something,there is just too many madness calls that end up winning.

I made a smart post so i have edited it. I made a similar thread to this when I started playing poker too. I didnt understand the game but I thought I did. Dont deposit any more money online until you have read or watched alot of strategy. When you do feel more confident play the smallest stakes available and see how you do. You really need to make an effort yourself to learn the ins and outs and all the software etc people are using.

The hands you posted are standard and happen to people every single day. Without bad beats and people sucking out with bad odds weak players would not play the game, they keep coming back again.

Google alot of stuff, like software, forums etc etc. Good luck

It's called a bad beat...get used to it! Paddy Power makes far too much money for them to have some sort of rigged system. I would imagine it's 100% down to the cards. I've seen worse happen in live games...the only reason it seems like its happening more here is that the play is faster. More hands played = more likely to see more bad beats. I would not move up to higher stakes if you're losing 300 euro that easily...they will destroy you at the better tables!

connie147 · 01-09-2011 2:26pm

Sure if its that simple that the worse hand on the flop always wins, just wait and go all-in with rubbish on the flop and you're a guaranteed winner!!

Seriously, look uo random generators and how they work. And if you're a beginner, as you obviously are, you shouldnt be losing that kinda money. But you obviously know nothing about bankroll management. Go to a poker forum where stratagy is discussed and ask the questions you need answered. The forum with the most traffic and up to date stratagy advice is on irishpokerboards.com.

Online poker is an absolute circus. It bears no resemblance to the real thing.

Really, how so, you sound like you know what you are talking about i reckon.

nix · 02-09-2011 2:22am

Ugh, people who think poker companies rig poker software in this way are just in denial. Get your **** together and get over the bad beats, or just please come to grips with the fact that your not good at online poker.

Why the **** would they rig it? They make money off you playing poker, not losing. The cards are random, the results are random yet you think you see a pattern, its sad really and your just gonna keep blaming your losing on them and not yourself...

Or y'know, try learn and move on and get better at the game itself and have some fun and maybe make money..

Yeah right, you've probably never even played poker. If you had, you'd know that the online craic is a load of old bollox.

In what way - do you have detailed examples/statistical proof of it being 'a load of old bollox' or is it just a perception of a handful of exit hands?

The fact that your blaming the software just shows everybody here that in fact you just can't play cards very well.The online sites make money from people playing they don't care who wins so they have no reason to rig it.

No, only you're seeing that mate, suppose this forums rigged now eh? With it not working in your favour

I cant believe this old chestnut is still going.The poker site makes cash from the reg so it is not beneficial to them at all to rig games.

AstonMartin · 05-09-2011 4:05am

Of course its rigged.

there is no other reason for you to lose...?

twoplustwo forums.

spend a few hours on there to begin to understand where things are going wrong and dont focus on one hand you got unlucky with.

poker is rigged:mad:

i was havin a little punt the other night and ended up getting it allin preflop with AA against a guys AK and the flop comes 10, 7, 2 the jack hits on the turn with a fking queen on the river.

i mean where did that come out off, the odds must have been astronomical:eek:

i'd say paddy was sitting in his armchair in his big mansion with his smoking jacket on, in front of a big open log fire swirling his finest cognac around in his brandy glass and holding a fat cuban cigar in his other hand and LOLing at my dimmise. and built into the arm of his arm chair is a big red button with a 'Q' symbol on it...... . . and you can guess what the dirty c**t did on the river :mad:

nix · 14-09-2011 3:44pm

And if you hit the ace you would laugh and think you're skilled, your missing the big picture, as with the majority of poker players.

If you think its fixed, then you're not cut out for poker, so just stop wasting your money, yeah ?

I take it your being extremely sarcastic, if not, i have so much pity for you, and by all means, keep donating money to other poker players

zuroph · 15-09-2011 7:59pm

switch to boylepoker, game is much softer there than Paddy Power.
