i have been a very successful player on fulltilt but that has all changed since I won the Sunday 750k, and cashed very high in a few other high payout tourneys...... Ever since I cashed out my winnings on full tilt I have had nothing but bad beats, bad cards and unbelievable suck outs.... People like to say that online poker has alot of variance, I say its the site punishing you for cashing out(ie... cashout curse).... hmm. also if your the big stack at a table just call any small stacks "all in" with any hand, you will usually win no matter how far behind you are pre or post flop... Can someone explain to me how all the tourneys start and end at roughly the same time week in and week out... that is impossible... I have played in a few live tourneys where the event was scheduled for 3 days but ended in two day, as well I was in a tourney that was scheduled for one day and ended spilling deep in to the next day making it last 2 days.. Full tilts 750k always starts at 6pm est - and ends between 2:30/3am est.... with no doubt it always starts and ends between these times, that is impossible in itself aswell......
the final straw for me was tonight (Sunday 1/18) I played the 1 million guarantee ($500 buy in on full tilt) and was quickly bad beat out of the tourney on awful garbage.... I had aa, hit set on rainbow flop, and lost to runner runner flush... Then I had pckt qq and lost to runner runner straight.. the final knock out was my all in Ak vs A 10, hit A on flop and amazing and expected 10 on river to be eliminated.... garbage, rigged, garbage.... I am now in the belief that these online sites (full tilt as well as pokerstars,etc...) purposely build in these bad beats and horrible suck outs to level the playing field between the fish and good players... If full tilt ran a truly fair game then all the bad players (fish) would be out of their bankrolls.. In order to keep traffic up on the sites they make it so that any one ( no matter how bad they play) can win.. heres my proof... have any of you ever watched the final 2 or 3 tables of full tilts sunday 750k or pokerstars 1 million guarantee? the players are horrible.. you mean to tell me that a player can outlast a field of 4,000/8,000 or more players only to donk off their chips with an any Ax (Ace/rag)? I mean seriously, these players have no business being this far in a tourney like this, but the online sites make it possible... I guarantee that none of these aforementioned players would make it past the first or second level in high payout live tourney..
so anyways I just emailed full tilt and instructed them to close my account and close my deposit options as well... I told them basically of what I thought of the site and what garbage it is.... I now play exclusively at pokerstars, although pokerstars also has some peculiar/head scratching shuffles as well but what am i gonna do, i need somewhere to play.....
