FlyerLays Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 Just been reading all this section and have to say im surprised as a newbie here. I only play poker in real life and avoid online poker. Do you actually know how fake and fixed online poker is folks? ... Anyway I won't go there. Its 90% luck and 10% skill whereas its the other way about when you play it at a casino or such. Just warning you all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its 90% luck and 10% skill whereas its the other way about when you play it at a casino or such. Well I don't agree, but hey we all have our opinions..... If Poker is fixed, then it's fixed in my favour somehow because I make money from it!!! Simple patient tight aggressive poker pays dividends online - nothing complex - just keep it simple and the money comes flying in!!!! It seems to me that most of the players who think that online poker is fixed are those who have been unable to adjust their style of play to those around them!! Just because a particular strategy works offline, doesn't mean the same strategy works online!! If it's 90% luck then I'm very lucky, and so are a lot of PL players :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El_Stuart Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 Re: Online Poker I must be 1 of the 10% then....I want my money back!!!! :cry:cry Seriously though, Its not fixed, I just suck!! :lol The only people who say its fixed are perennial losers and cry babies (IMO) ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything is fixed; Horse Racing, Tennis, Football, Cycling etc etc. Have you seen some of the hands in the WSOP thread? That's certainly fixed. So is blackjack/roulette etc. All lotteries and raffles are fixed. Anything you can gamble on is fixed by the government - FACT. :eyes :eyes :eyes :eyes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doob Posted August 6, 2006 Share Posted August 6, 2006 Re: Online Poker Utter rubbish, heard this loads of times from people who don't understand variance or the fact that you will always get more bad calls online due to the fact that you haven't got 9 other players physically staring at you.

^Newbie^ Posted August 6, 2006 Share Posted August 6, 2006 Re: Online Poker well , i may not have been a profitable cash table player , at least MTT wise , i'm doing ok . If online poker was rigged , i guess i wouln't even be able to make the money at all . If its rigged , somehow or rather , its rigged to my favour . To me , what you are saying seems nonsensical to me . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would appear that way but to play the amount of live poker that your able to play online would take about 60 hours a day, your bound to get some incredible tale that proves online poker is fixed.... unfortunately, I have enough stories about live poker that absolutely proves it' fixed;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm ashamed to say I bought his book, out of curiosity. Half way through reading it, I suddenly thought: "Hey, this guy cheats. He admits he cheats. He's not ashamed of cheating.

H1ghlander Posted August 6, 2006 Share Posted August 6, 2006 Re: Online Poker oh my favourite subject online poker is fixed as most poker sites are owned or funded by long established betting organisations like william hill and ladbrokes, stan james victor chandler where is the logic in risking a multi billion pound industry between them to fix their poker sites the Logic is slightly askew nobody in their right mind would risk it cmon get real Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doddsy Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 Re: Online Poker Sounds like FlyerLays has been suffering from a few bad beats, thats the usual reason for calling online poker fixed. The style of play is different for both games and you see far more hands online than in a live scenario. I agree with fellow punters about the long established betting organisations and also the fact that there are consistent winners online (not only here on PL :lol ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
