I just read my previous forum posts from last year! Firstly, yes I felt cheated and had every right to especially on stars. I had several emails from support stating I was playing against people who were colluding!(Bots) Secondly my outlook on Poker has changed. Before I was in the mindset where I put most of my available money into Poker sites expecting to make money and of course, when I didn't I was majorly tilted! Bordering on addiction I gave up poker for a while, hence the 6 month break in my posts.
Then I came back and closed my account on stars which was the worst decision I ever made as they refuse to let me open it again or play in live events they sponsor. So now I have 4 accounts that I play regularly and to be honest don't do very well on, I play too long and at the wrong stakes for my bankroll! Until I joined party, then (ignoring what tracking sites which are clearly wrong) say I do quite well on!
I did receive refunds BeMy, not for much but give Stars there dues I did get them! How much does sharkscope say nanonoko has won online? And how much has he really won? Yes they are VERY accurate
This is true. I just don't have the bankroll to elude the small stakes loose players. People talk about grinding up through the smaller stakes, but it's near impossible to make a decent profit, especially when you know AK should be winning and you call the all in to find it's j 9 or q 10 or something and lose. Typical race still annoying though
I dont think you understand my meaning. Some tool is happy to call $4 or $5 with absolute air and win, someone isn't so keen to call $20 or $30 with the same hand. Hence, easier to beat higher stake

Posted by godward89: Yeah I love a good bluff. Theres nothing better than showing a 7 2 with a brilliant bluff!
To think bluffing is a very important part of poker is a big mistake. Especially at microstakes you should solely play for value. Bluffing without outs like in your 72 example is terrible as well,regardless of stakes

Never bragged about a bluff, never will and i find this silly when others do. Its like you did what no one has ever done to you or do again in the future right?
