ONLINE POKER - SITE - Party Poker

This site is definitely rigged. As I have gotten better as a poker player I am finding the worse and worse I do. At first when I would fish quite often I had tripled my money in no time at all. The more seasoned I became, the worse I did. After I played real poker with my friends one day, and I told them I played Party Poker they told me it was rigged - which at the time, I didn't believe. When I went home I fired up Party Poker to play a few hands. In the utmost irony I witnessed the most ridiculous things happen for the first time. My first hand of the night was pocket Kings (pretty sweet first hand). Flop came up K,4,J all different suits. Next two cards come up clubs (Jack is a club too). What do you know, guy beats my trip kings with a flush on the river. And not just any flush, 2 4 suited. Wtf? The VERY next hand I am dealt pocket aces. As if THAT alone isn't sketchy enough, with KK then AA back to back. Regardless, flop comes up J 8 4. Turn is 5. River a 6. Guy wins with a straight J 7 suited. I wasn't quite as upset with that loss since it wasn't as ridiculous as the hand before, but lame none the less. Nothing can convince me anymore that the site isn't rigged. I've heard enough good poker players come to the same conclusion as well to give it any second thought.

Very interesting reading this stuff! I have not yet played any online games and based on what I read here would be mad to do so without at least some investigation. One question comes straight to my mind though, if games are rigged why make it appear so blatant as many of these stories would indicate? If there are bots playing predetermined outcomes you would only need to program them to win a little more often than they should and they will still get your money eventually but subtly enough for it take a very long time to detect.

Good point prestbury.... if games are rigged (and I don't think they are) then why would they rig the games in such obvious ways... they could simply rig good starting hands and take the money.... I think people are seeing bad poker players throwing money around that doesn't mean much to them.... if I was wealthy I just might go into a low stakes room and play like a maniac, but the money means too much to me... none of the hands written about above surprise me, I've seen them in home and casino games.... either people aren't raising enough to protect their hands or they are playing limit and getting rivered... happens all the time. Unfortunately, you cannot prove that a conspiracy doesn't exist, that is why they are always so appealing... perhaps some people won't admit that they are simply bad poker players and won't accept the fact that some people get lucky...

It used to be a good fair game (when I was a new player). After a few months I got the feeling there was something not quite right, but I put it down to just plain bad luck. After consistently (over weeks) winning ONLY every 15th hand..over and over, I took the hint..these guys just don't want me here anymore.I kept at it (god knows why) but it just got worse. Then on the day before the 4th July long weekend I was unbeatable - over and over - it was a awesome! Then the next day it didn't matter what I had - it was beaten over and over again.I've actually recorded the games as avi's so anyone can see what sort of crap is going on at this site.Do they cheat? YES It's so blatant and becoming increasingly blantant over the last few months (as they are loosing money from competing sites I suspect)You may not be aware of this, but they take screen shots of your desktop while your playing. I guess it's an anti-fraud measure, however, this is also against the law. I'm surprised that they are still operating, though I have been watching their ownership move from country to country.I will personally laugh my ass off when the owners are all finally busted and imprisoned. Then they'll know how it feels to be fucked over.

I started my online playing with PP and found at the start it was great, but have also noticed lately the extreme amounts of bad beats.. And I have started to believe all this hype about them jucing the hands to increase the rake, yes its possible to win but Im fed up with the amount of crud that occurs compared to the local casino or other online poker sites. I think there is a reason why PP makes so much money :\

Deffo a dodgy site. keep your $$$ away from party poker

I'll tell you what, this site is a crock of sh**. Ive wasted so much money trying to kid myself i could win back the ridiculous losses ive recieved. Im talking about guys flopping quads meanwhile im sitting with a pretty full house. Also i know what you guys are talking about.... maye it be that 1 or 2 cards that could beat you its always thsoe cards there holding. Im seriously convinced party poker pays people to sit down at tables and feeds them info about upcoming cards or maybe even the cards your holding. It always goes like this, win money, lose more money, win some more lose it all. Now i know thats how poker goes ive been playing forever, but the way it happens on this site is just ridiculous! PEACE and DOWN WITH PARTY POKER!!!!
