I found this site because I was curious to see if others have had the same experience as I have with Party Poker. After reading most of the reviews here I see that others have had the same problem. I firmly believe that PP is a set-up. They purposely set up hands so that at least two people will go against each other. I'm not saying every hand is set up but I play at casinos just as often and I never see the kind of hands that I see on PP. How often do you get KK and someone else has AA? Give me a break. How many flushes and straights can people chase down on the river? I've read many poker books and the odds just don't match up. I've tried to play aggressive and tight and you get burned no matter what. PP lets you win a lot in the beginning and then as soon as you cash out your luck changes. So you deposit more money and get sucked in. I can't accept the excuse of "Well, you're just on a bad beat." No way. I know what a bad beat is and I know when I'm being set up. What's scary is all this talk about "scanners" and how people can see what cards you have. I'm cashing out permanently from PP. The reason I do give it a 3 rating is because the graphics and set-up of PP is excellent and user-friendly. The game play, however, is quite suspicious.

A "rockish old fart on a respirator"idea is almost as funny as the concept of a "professional poker site evaluator". If the new wave of poker players are learning from television then they should know better than to play half the crap they play. Nerves of steel and killer instincts are second fiddle behind a guy whos willing to waste away ten grand at a 3-6 table. playing like an idiot doesnt matter to him. Thats what it is. Do yourself a favor, stick strictly to no limit tournaments. Let some idiot try playing his A3s or chase his gut-shot straights in a tourney. If he doesnt hit the first hand he chases, hes gone. The notion that your first mistake may well be your last will scare any maniac straight, that or he will lose his shirt one or the other.

I consider myself a very good player and after spending some time at PP I am also of the opinion that something isn't right. I've played tens of thousands of live hands and never, ever seen the nonsense you see on this site. I too, was winning like crazy when I first deposited. Then after a while I got on a cold streak that I haven't seen in 30 years of playing. I'll go dozens of hands with rags then get KK when someone else has AA every time. I track every hand in PokerTracker and statistically something is very, very wrong. The hand strengths are way below average. Between the endless bad beats and 90% of the AKs type hands that don't even pair, I was beginning to think I was just the unlukiest person in the world. But after talking with others and reading online posts, I'm convinced that something's fishy. My gut was telling me and the statistics prove it. For me I'm taking my money out for good.

LMAO, straightshooter says the site is on the up and up, then says they reward agressive betting. The cards are either random or rigged. If our Professional evaluator is correct, then it is rigged. My experience is more or less the same - you start off winning like crazy, play consistently and lose while playing the same strategy. I have a real money and a play money account. I have over $3 million in play chips but was smart enough to stop at original $100 real chips. Real money shot up to over $500 then like everyone else, started losing consistently. OK PP shills, now tell me play money people play loser and that's why you win with fake money - rigged pure and simple.

OVERRATED!!! This place is not as good as it looks. Terrible Customer service and horrible game set-up. If you're smart you'll play somewhere else.

Party has the most selection of any site and the sit and goes are the only ones with essentially no waiting.I have mae a lot of money at PP, but I have also had 100 big bet draw downs. If you play enough, it all comes back with interest. PP is the real deal and they have no incentive to do anything but provide an honest game.

PP is the biggest joke on earth. There isn't enough room on this site to tell all the stories of all the really great hands that got rivered.If I have high pair, someone has higher kicker, If I flop 2 pair, then someone has trips. If I flop a straight, then someone rivers a flush. If I get trips, its either a straight or a flush on the river. Everytime I get a straight or flush on the turn, the river matches a card and someone had trips for a boat. The list is endless, it just gets worse and worse. Like others said earlier, they tell you your just on a bad run. Yeah right, of course its a bad run, and it lasts for months, same story no matter what. I can't tell you how many times I flopped sets, and someone flopped higher sets. If there is only 1 card that can come on the river that can beat you, your best bet on pp is to put your life savings on that card coming up, because it will. The tables are so rigged its pathetic. The last time I played there I actually sat there laughing at the ridiculous bad beats, one after the other after the other, no matter what table, no matter what limit. I cannot warn anyone more than this, if you have money you want to lose, save your time and just mail them a check. I don't care what anyone says, they rig the games pure and simple. Oh, and if you turn around and try to chase after a hand, you could have 20 outs and you will not get a card you need.
