do they use bots to get that many players? or are there that many bad players online? bots or no bots your opion please.
i say no bots but its such a big site i do think there is alot of colusion going on there
yea u know when u get a guy who calls with absolute nothing and then hits,u think to your self..hmm did that guy know it was coming is he settin me up.who knows though right,no ones gonna admitt anything.
i do agree with your thoughts on colusion though
PokerStars holds the BEST security on the net. Their software even checks upon everyone randomly to ensure there are no bot accounts.
If you play at pokerstars you can really be sure you are not getting cheated. If you think you are though, just drop support an email, they shall investigate and if in fact you were cheated, they will try to reimburse you as much as possible from the scammers account.
lol at getting reimbursed from pokerstars for thinking there are bots lol
Never said because of bots. I said if you felt cheated or that there was collusion or that someone is cheating you, PS will investigate and if there's cash to return to you, they will.Quote:

thing i never understood is why are you going play if you know its rigged or has bots? time after time the same people cry and cry abouthow its rigged or fixed. well if thats how you feel why are still playing? take up a different hobby like fishing or bowling. pokersite make enough off rake they dont need to cheat or have bots.
Exactly, many complain but still play on the same sites, if they are s sure of being cheated yeah you are correct bro, it's weird, LOLQuote:

depends on the situation.Quote:

Just seems to me, and stars is not the only site its been a bunch of sites.Ok for those who deposit isn't it odd at all sites that you win when you make a deposit, not always but alot of the time you find yourself winning your bbs with rags, or you catch your card on river.But get your roll low and watch as yourAA gets cracked by 2 7. I've played online for 3 years or over, won freerolls with 10 tho peeps, won all sorts of buy in tournies.I don't mind losing just making observations, watching, waiting and learning.I will say this, and i've spent alot cash online,and I've won alot more after making deposit than if I've had cash there awhile.Might just be an oddity that happens to me.But if I pay 16 dollars to enter a tourny, the blinds are 5 and 10 or 10 and 20 and I raise 3x the bb and a donk pushes in with 2 7 and hits trip 2s it makes me wonder, not once mind you but 5 or 6 times at same site make me think someone knows something I don't.Just my opion, am I am entitled to at least one.
If you don't have your opinion you've got nothing!
Similar things have happened to me over the years and sometimes it's just hard to explain!
I must say though, after a long session or after a few drinks, I have been that guy with 27 who gets lucky and wins. I'm not often that guy, but it has happened.
I attribute some of the plays you see online to the fact that it's online poker. Players don't have to play you face to face and worry about how you'll react if they beat you with 27 in a pot they should have NEVER been in. I'm sure in a live game, these same players wouldn't dream of playing the same way they do online for the simple fact that they couldn't live with themselves if they had to face you in the card room!

i so see where coming from and i know how you feel but just like ndn said about after a bad day and a few drinks. hell i know i got drunk one night and was down 200 for the day and that night i jumped in a ring game on carbon and was calling raise preflop and crap and hitting for about 2 hours stright. a couple time i even pushed preflop with 34 suited and won the pot with trip 3's against kk. was i proud of my play no! but what happen was i was drunk and felt this was the best way for me to win my money back. yes i was a winner that night and more than made up what i lost. so yes it possible for people to play crap cards and luck out against you.Quote:

Haha you liked that huh!Quote:

Unfortunately its those freaking donks the ones who, screw your chances at going deep and taking down a tourney and then, at the same time its those donks who will donate all the chips to the better remaining players deep, it sucjks but its true =o/
With the number of poker sites on the Internet, I'd say Pokerstars is probably one of the few I would leave alot of funds in
I really agree they are the biggest and probally the safest, am suprised to see the poll 50/50 though thought it would favor no more.

If there is anything at all shady there, then they freeze your account and ask you to contact security.
This is just the standar security procedure with cashouts at stars to ensure there is no cheating. :)
bot? robot?
long story Herlis, just another excuse for my losing ways lol.
Alot folks thoght they "Poker Rooms" would let you play against there computers, you know the results.I don't believe any ever were busted though.
I got reimbursed by Stars when a scammer somehow managed to get my password. I think it was a virus and/or keylogger that allowed them to get in.Quote:

Yeah, I agree with you too!

There is NO NEED on even thinking that PokerStars is not the SAFEST and MOST SECURE poker site in the world. Simply there is no way to cheat stars, everytime you withdraw your deposits are cashed out instant, but any wins will go under a strict cashout procedure where they WILL check all your play and HOW you won your cash, anything shady and you will get frozen account and then investigated to a point where, if you in fact cheated they wll just try to give as much back as possible to the ones you cheated from :)
I think PokerStars is a good site and how can u cheat on PokerStars cant see how?
Well you can collude, have several peeps or with alot of computers.I was mad when I made this post, I do not believe its random tho, of course I don't think no one's landed on the moon either.But the poll is 50/50 so I may not be ALONE!!!
if that's your opinion Lilred , well i respect your opinion and noone is really sure if they do or dont cheat.
actually you cant be sure of anything right now...LOL
when I say I don't think its random what I mean is I believe its in the software.Ok say you gett QQ on the button, you just check it instead of raising, or you raise 3x the bb.I believe you will lose if ya check and win if you raise.I just think if ya play the cards wrong the software will clobber you.I do not believe POKERSTARS cares who wins or loses.there making theres anyways, so if ya slow play your AA dont get mad when the bb kills you with 27, he shoudn't have been allowed to stay.Are there Bots? I am almost positive at some sites there are, of course some of the worlds biggest crooks are in the highest offices.
LOLOL well Lilred, I have the answer to your issue
The fact that if you check you lose more times than if you raise is because when you check you give away that free card that often screws you, but if you bet ppl will often fold. I used to think that stars and other sites would favor the raiser but after having raised a zillion times and still wind up losing, i decided its just my crap luck, LOL
Like i said I still don't believe they landed on the moon.My glass is always empty.
