I deleted Party Poker for a second time and never intend to go back. I thought I would give them a 2nd chance after not playing there for a couple of months. They by far have the best tournament structure out there, but when the games are "programmed" or "predetermined" to make certain seats/players win, it creates major suspicion in my mind. I have played at numerous other sites and find Pacific Poker to be the most realistic and fair. The best hands win and are very rarely beat by the miracle 1-outer. Of course it happens occassionally, but not with the same over and over again repitition as Party Poker. I base this on simple facts. If you still play at Party Poker, keep track of this and you will see what I am talking about. We all love bad players at our tables, you know the ones who call with little or no outs, but it seems on Party Poker that these guys are hitting those outs at an alarming rate. You could be winning with the best hand against 6 or 7 people at the table, but are constantly losing to 1 or 2 players. That would be fine if they had the best of it, but they don't. They are literally hitting their miracle card time and time again on the river, against you only. It is like it is programmed to pay off that way almost like playing video poker instead of true randomness against an inferior opponent. How is it that possible? It's like OK seat 3 will lose to seat 1 when in the same hand, but will beat seats 8, 9 and 10. But seat 1 will lose to all seats except seat 3, even if their hand is far inferior, then the 2 perfect cards seat 1 needs to beat seat 3 will hit. You know what I'm saying? I truly feel there is no randomness to the play at Party, but predetermination of who will beat who. Give the bad player just enough of the hand knowing he will play it out, and put out the cards he needs to win when up against certain players. Seriously, watch for this. When you are taking bad beat after bad beat when going in with the best of it, you will see that it is the same person tha tis putting the bad beats on you with far inferior hands. Like some of the other posts have said, maybe they do this to "hook" or "reward" new or bad players to keep them coming back, but once they do, the same beats will be happening to them. By the way, I am not some disgruntled recreational player, I am a Floor Supervisor in poker at a Major SOuthern California Casino as well as a 40 hour a week player. I watch thousands of hands played every week and never see the severity of bad beats that I do on Party Poker. I honestly feel they are not legitimate and they do things to increase their amount of play and players without any regard to fairness, only to their bottom line. Their is no regulation of online poker, no gaming commission to ensure fairness, and Party Poker exploits that fact.
