ONLINE POKER - SITE - Party Poker

rusty vernwald 06-20-04 06:00 PM

For the biggest online poker site you'd think they would care more about customer service.. stick to pokerstars if you want to play somewhere you can trust. Stay here if you want a lot of fishy players.

lester 07-13-04 06:00 PM

Games used to be a lot looser than they are now. Better software can be found elsewhere and their support department is deplorable.

evilhemp76 07-16-04 06:00 PM

One of the worst poker sites on the web. Playing with play chips is a joke on this site. When you see a player have 20,000,000 play chips at the table you know youve come upon a shady site. I wouldnt dare play for real money on this site. Software and support are sad also. Dont waste your time downloading this crap.

CatOfGrey 07-25-04 06:00 PM

I'm all for fast play, but there is one issue where Party Poker is too fast: the end of a hand. I have trouble seeing who won, and with what hand, because there is no delay (not even a full second).

MrBippy 07-29-04 06:00 PM

Played my first real money online games here. Is it me or does this site give out Flushes like they're going out of style? Really loose players who will call raise after raise with mediocre hands including gutshots and beat you on the river everytime. That's Poker I guess. Moved to Pokerstars.

devil fish/ nashperry/ brysenperry 07-31-04 06:00 PM

there are some very shady hands. i would never play with real money here.

Pepsi King 08-08-04 06:00 PM

This was my first poker site. After being disgusted about being beat on the river ALL THE TIME, I went to another site where I actually started winning on a regular basis. Now that I have played for a while I realize that TOO MANY PEOPLE GET LUCKY ON THE RIVER at Party Poker. Mathematically speaking it occurs a lot more than it should. It gives the impression that Party Poker intentionally rewards bad play in order to keep novices hooked. I have also noticed that everytime I cash-out or win a bonus I suddenly start having a losing streak. I was once dealt over 100 losing hands in a row after receiving a bonus. I am very suspicious of this site and will not play here again.

KidDian 08-13-04 06:00 PM

I've had the same experience as most of the people above. I am a tight player and won't play much junk. So whenever I have a decent hand I play, and it has happened too often for me not too suspect the shady river. I have been beat on the river so many times at party poker. I thought it was just coincedence at first, but after reading others people's comments it's becoming more and more clear something is goin on.

jcdgoad 08-14-04 06:00 PM

I play at this site more than any other site. I play the low stakes sit and go 1 table tournaments and the $25 6 handed no limit games. I've found that I'm beat less on the river at Party Poker than I am on PokerStars. Party Poker is a good legitimate place to play. I wish that they had better multi-table tournaments. I think Party Poker and PokerStars are the 2 best sites that I have played at.

firemedic77 08-16-04 06:00 PM

Players are so bad they will call any raises with anything so most hands never stand up and get rivered. Software is junk and bogs down the computer (have to re- start every hour or so). Tables look so unnatural (bets are in numbers and no chips). Junk for actual poker players.

wallman 08-16-04 06:00 PM

I agree with many of the other comments. I took 2 deposits out, and rarely ever won a hand after that. it was comical. There are more bad beats on this site than any other that i've ever seen. i'm shocked so many players stay and play on this site- many better options out there

joe 08-19-04 06:00 PM

Think about it, if this site is so bad why would so many people actually play there? Currently there are 50,000+ players at peak times. That speaks for it self.

iiiandviii 08-20-04 06:00 PM

not happy with it. i swear i think they have "employee" players that are dealt winning hands for the company. its amazing how many bet with junk, large bets... and end up catching the river hand after hand after hand.

GAMESPEOPLEPLAYK 08-23-04 06:00 PM

i am professional gam,bler played on party poker for 8 months it is most corrupt poker site ever seen bots on every table stay out fo side rooms especially $15'30 if there are 10 at table guaranteed 6 at party poker bots i kid you nto i documented over 400 cases finally had enough i was major player on there site so much as they refunded me over 3,000 jsut from me complaing of very strange hands per example one player hitting 4 4 of a kind in a row when i was at 30/60 table my advice is to stay way clear of party poker unless you jsut are casual gambler like $1/2 but anyhtng mroe and you can't win take it from me who bets over 2 million a yr you can email me i will be happy to tell your more mr rober ferguson is poker investigations knows me well take care im still looking for honest poker site cant find one also gaming poker and tiger poker also rigged

jcdgoad 08-24-04 06:00 PM

I have never seen bots at party poker and I have never had abnormal losses after cashing out. The site has a high rake on low limit games but it has the most players of any site on the web and there are a lot of poor players on the site. Ignore the negative posts. The site is legit.

Tim 08-30-04 06:00 PM

People who give party a low rating because they think it's fixed have no clue what they are talking about. They are not good players and they try this conspiracy theory is their excuse. Party's low limit games are the softest you'll ever find. I have thousands of hands in at .50/1, 1/2, and 2/4 and have consistantly won at every level.I really get a kick out of people who say this after playing with just play money. You all have no clue.

Dr. John Lee 09-01-04 06:00 PM

I concur with one nephew on a point: end of hand, they take it down so quick, often you can't see who won/with what.

TheDirtRoadWarrior 09-04-04 06:00 PM

With the thousands of people playing at Party Poker, it is inevitable that there will be tons of complaints. These complaints usually come from losers who can not come to grips with the fact that they are not good players. Ego is a killer in poker, and when most lose they can't possibly blame themselves. Therefore, it must be the site hey? Yes there are tons of loose, inexperienced players at Party Poker. This explains why so many beats on the river. It is gonna happen when call stations just don't know when to stop. They are rookies. If you are really a good player you will be able to outlast the rookies who rely on fishing for river cards. Sure you will get beat a bit more often, but I will put my skills against a bunch of reckless fisherman any day of the week. Luckily there will always be a bunch of whinebag losers who will never figure out they suck, and will continue to play. Whether it is at Party Poker or somewhere else, they will lose, and hopefully I will be there to grab their chips. A bit of advice, if Party Poker constantly rewards bad players chasing river cards, why the heck don't you start chasing every straight and flush and adapt to the corruption you speak of? Heck, if I could always fish out a river card, I would play a bunch of bad hands too.

stb111, aol 09-13-04 06:00 PM

If you cash out, you will go on a losing streak 4 sure,the river will get you, way to many times,

badbeated 09-14-04 06:00 PM

Don't believe what TheDirtRoadWarrior is saying. In fact the comments you've read from others above are true in just about every site, and not just party poker. They all cheat. These sites are not regulated. I for one always win when I'm in Atlantic City or Las Vegas, and over there I don't see the dealing patterns that I see online.

Merf80 09-15-04 06:00 PM

All those whining about this site should just play the "Play Money" tables. You can get the fix without losing your $$. You can't complain about those. It's fun practice...you can take risks you'd normally never take just for the FUN of it! Shouldn't poker be FUN? Later, go take money from your poker buds and the real casinos.

Agrees with Tim 09-17-04 06:00 PM

I agree with Tim.Seeing these posts makes me happy about the competition I face there. =)

playerman 09-20-04 06:00 PM

I agree with most of the negative comments about partypoker. Too many river winners. I don't know if it's b/c the site's software is screwed up (erroneous random selection of cards), players cheating (playing in collusion with other players or using a "scanner"), or what.

mastermgw 09-20-04 06:00 PM

I've only played at partypoker.com. A friend mentioned that people cheat on that website and I didn't really believe him until i came to this page and read some reviews. After reading up on some things here I needed a bit more proof so i did a search for poker bots and I found this website. If you do not believe that there are scammers out there that are cheating at poker then your a fool. visit this website to see the proof. [url]www.pokerbot.com[/url]

drunkstar 09-22-04 06:00 PM

Use to think something was up, like after cashing out i'd loose over and over. But then I came to terms it was my attitude. I would sit down for an hour or 2 at a 1/2 game and be up 60-100, but then I get cocky, get beat, then go on tilt. As for getting beat on the river, the fishes are lucky, and if someone calls me lucky if I hit my card I keep quiet, then say to myself pot odds were good, and I had a good chance of catching it.

manster 09-28-04 06:00 PM

Excellent poker site. Most of the crap you readn here about cheaters and scammers is just that, crap. I looked at the pokerbot and its nothing. You have to program it to bet, call, raise, fold the hands you want it to. Now read this carefully... IT DOES NOT PREDICT WHAT THE NEXT CARD DEALT IS GOING TO BE! Therefore its not a cheat! All it does is what you tell it to do and you can set it to play for you when you're not around. As far as the RNG goes, its a computer program, its not going to be perfect. Sure some hands will repeat at times, sure some hands seem fishy, but GOOD card players know that the cards in your hand are not the most important thing in the game, betting is. A fish is gonna make a bad call no matter what happens. him/her catching on the river is as much a part of the game as you bluffing him out when he has you beat. If partypoker got rid of all the fish and all the maniacs, nobody would be complaining about cheats, or rigged rivers, newbie bonuses, or any garbage like that. GOOD players dont whine about the fish, they just get their money back in the long run. Overall, its the best site I have played at. Cash-ins and cash-outs are quick and easy, sit-n go multi tables are a great way to get the exitement of a big tourney without comitting 5 or 6 hours of your time. Most of all, the private table option is an easy way to make some quick cash. Find yourself a maniac or a real loose player, put his name on your buddy list, when you find him/her, invite him to your private table, play them heads up and collect a quick payday.

bolandry 09-29-04 06:00 PM

Pretty good website. Last time I cashed out took several days longer than I liked, started to worry a little. I like the sit n go options.
