bad mouth site......site will make you lose,,,,

[dbbc_0169]

idk about this whole bad mouthing conspiracy - but i will say that merge angers me with its drastic changes in upswings and downswings. For me atleast, i can do no wrong for a few days, winning almost every pot i am in, then for next couple days - boom - i lose every pot im in, rivers galore, coolers everywhere, etc. To me its too drastic to be "real poker" for me, but i also know that that is part of the online poker package... it gets annoying when your getting screwed for a few days but its cool when your winning. right now i happen to be getting fcked every hand i play... but i cant say that is from badmouthing merge.

P.S. fuck merge (right now)

So its ok for you to hit your few outs but when someone ur playing his those same outs against you it just isnt real poker? Please. Now im not saying you in paticular but alot of people here dont even realise what a bad beat is. Constant post about AK losing to AQ or Ace rag, or higher pockets losing to smaller pockets. Those beats are so stand they happen so many times a day. Just look at most casino's and poker sites definition of a bad beat. Its close to being tilting how people think everytime they lost a hand when all in preflop if they are ahead even if just 60%vs40% that it is a bad beat

Ive got no problem with badbeats,its part of the game.what I do have is the frequency of them. Percentages are percentages and over time they should prevail.....seemingly not the case at Merge(for me anyways) and when it comes to playing with real money its just not cool or right!

Your thoughts here sound like a common misconception when it comes to roulette. When it comes black 10 times in a row people say its 50/50 red and black so it has to come red now. But the truth is that wheter or not its come black 10 times in a row the % for it to come red never changes. The same way as someone hitting a small % out has no affect on him hitting a small % out the next hand.

These sites make money simply off of people playing on their site. Why would any of them jeopardise it by simply cheating you. They stand nothing to gain from it

If you cant prove they are cheating ,then they got nothing to lose.

Yes they have. If they just cheated everyone who talked bad about them outta money then eventually noone would be left and they would make no money. Then they would have to close down. Have you ever gone to an actual casino?? These poker sites make money the same way of poker that casino's do. And that is rake from hands. Are you telling me that if your sitting at a table in the casino and decide to talk bad about the casino that the dealer is going to simply rig the deck to make sure you lose all your money (Yes there are people who are more than able to deal cards in this way). Of course they wont. What do they have to gain from it?? Nothing. Sure for that 1 hand that all the money was in the pot they might make a slightly higher amount of rake but it in no way justifies the risk of actually cheating

Thats why live play is more legit than online play. You dont see the crazy flow of absurd boards in live play that you do online. Live play poker is generally boring and good hole cards that have the percentage after flop generally win the hand even if it goes to river. NOT THE CASE WITH ONLINE POKER! WHY IS THAT?
