Bad Beat or Something Shadier like a Bot?

Thanks. Joined another site and found out quickly, or reminded myseld, that I actually can play poker. It was absolutely not my play on Ignition. Have played quite a few tournaments on this other site and cashed in probably 40% of them. Hands are getting beat out by legitimate hands based on the cards, position, and the bets. On ignition I was lucky to min cash once in a great while. It is a breath of fresh air. I hope you make the best decision for yourself regarding online sites. May the poker gods be with you in whatever you decide.

i know this is old…but how is this a bad beat and how are you even complaining about it? you called a re-raise post flop with aCE HIGH…NO DRAW NO NOTHING, THEN YOU GO ALLIN ON THE TURN WITH ACE HIGH…YOU BEAT YOURSELF WITH HORRIBLE PLAY

So far today I have ended in 4th spot in a 9 player sit and go with being knocked out with a 2 outer on the river 3 times… yesterday twice. How is this possible unless the computer is set to get rid of the 4th payer ASAP. The odds of me losing all 5 of those hands are millions to 1.

since my first deposit on this site i am running 16.5 bb/100 under ev over 4300 hands!

can anyone top that?

not sure if this means i am really lucky or really un-lucky???

After reading your comments I feel both relieved yet angry. Since I began playing on Ignition I have felt there was something shady/fixed/suspect for all the same reasons mentioned in this discussion. I have noticed patterns that just seem far too coincidental to overlook and lost hands that go beyond the occasional bad beat. Im too old to allow my ego to point blame for my losses on anything other than my own poor play and the random nature of poker and its infinite number of possible outcomes however that same wisdom also protects me from being naive and not believing that the subject matter being discussed is quite certainly a possibility and that I may not be as much of an unlucky bad player as I think. Your comment above about going to a new site and realizing you can in fact play and that it was not your poor play on Ignition but rather something suspect in nature really resonated with me and is the very reason I am writing to ask if you can share what the new site is that you have been playing on and enjoying the game again.

Thanks

There may not be bots on this site, don’t know. But their programming sucks. 8 out of 10 times I play something like 6,7 the flop will come 6,8,9 always one pair and 4 to a straight. It is uncanny to say the least. Also I have been beat so many times on 2 outers on the river I stopped counting. I just lost a hand after raising pre flop. betting after the flop, betting after the turn, then the only guy left goes all in after the river. Turn and river were 5, 5 and he had a 5 in his hand beating my pair of As and pair of Js. Not sure how he makes those calls unless he was drunk, stupid or knew what was coming. Been going on for several days now after I got way up. Now just getting robbed…

With the events that just happened to me I am now a firm believer in this. This site is crooked and they cheat their players. If you stay here and play you are either an idiot or you are employed by ignition poker, plain and simple, because this site is not a legit site at all

I was sitting at 106,000 chips, 39 players left and the chip leader. I have KQ flop KQ3 guy shoves with 8 3 and turns a 3. Called a raise of 4xbb pre with that hand as well. Very next hand I have 10s and he has K3 and flops trip 3s and takes me down to 8bb. There is no way someone is that bad to make plays like that. This person new what cards were coming. Super super shady and he is still doing it as we speak. He is a house bot or a house player 1000000%. Complete trash. As I am typing this, this robot is making the most redicolous calls and plays and winning every hand. He just called an all in for 60 percent of his stack with a 10 4 and flopped a boat…insane…I started thinking maybe people are right, maybe it is just variance that every time I get deep in a tournament that I take a brutal beat to lose. But as I watch this guy win hand after hand playing absolutely redicolous I am convinced that it’s something more than variance. As I watch this guy call half his chips, 80 percent of his chips with hands like 10 4, 9 3, 8 4, 7 2, and win them, I am convinced that this site is a set up

Later fish! One more fish leaves the site!

fish are people too

Fish? Lol who is this guy? I cash and win way mote thsn you do i guarantee that for a fact but i dont care, im not here to get into that debate. Obviously you are very rude, probably live in your mothers basement playing magic the gathering and world of warcraft and get no girls. Thats evident. God i wish i could see skme of these internet tough guys in person because they wouldnt be saying any of that

So you crush the site and are done playing here? Good one fishy

I dont crush the site lol i have my fair share of wins and i am sure they are more than yours by far…i guarantee that.

And I would love to compare stats with you Pal. I have one the 150+12 on Sunday and the 470+30 for over 30k each in the last 2 months. You cant hold my jock strap son

Hows this for stats…i won 2 tournaments last month back to back for 5000 bucks. I won another for 300 3 weeks ago and the next week i final tabled and got 2nd for 250. Last night i final tabled and got 9th and i also got 30th in the 7500 guarantee last night, as well as numerous other cashes in between. So go away with your 2 wins, that are probably complete bs anyway. Its doesnt make you cool and give you the right to think youre better than everyone and give you the right to be disrespectful. Would you say things like that to my face? I highly doubt it. You would see me and be fake and shake my hand cause thats who you are. Now go back to your WoW game, dont you have a raid coming up little man? And i do mean little man lol

@nsteinard1007
@huskerpoker

listen there might be many ways to settle this but i am sure the best way would be for you guys to both send me a voucher and who ever sends the most money to me can afford to give it away then we will know who has the biggest jock strap.

i will let you guys know the winner after you both send the voucher.
