|
|
| I usually play Omaha 8 as my favorite cash game when I'm not playing Hold'em, and I now play here all the time. The reason is that the other site (you know of which I speak) has weird flops and hands time and time again at the Omaha 8 tables. I have sat there for over an hour, and almost every flop came high or paired, and if a low was possible, you can guarantee that an ace or a deuce was on the board. This went on for literally hundreds of flops, and I kept having to muck suited Ace-two after Ace-two when the flop came Q-J-J or K-K-5. I already quit playing hold'em there due to the unbelieveable number of suckouts but I figured Omaha 8 was safe. Guess not. Any other Omaha 8 players finding the same thing. (By the way, I played at the .50/1 tables) |

| Don't play cash games much myself, but managed a few nice hands in O8 today. Could be you're playing too many hands or not good enough starting hands? Not saying it's either one, just something you might check on. |

| I was playing very few hands (almost all A-2 or A-3 with a suited), but even the hands I didn't play I noticed that the flop came high only or the two low cards were paired and if a third low card came it was always an ace or a deuce that would cointerfeit the nut low. It just seemed suspicious that the low never seems to hit on that site and donks playing hands like 9973 and QQ96 kept scooping. |

| Let's just say that it is a "Star" filled site. Again, I will warn you that your suited A23K will turn to toilet paper after flop after flop comes 998 and J55. The last few times there the players at the table were talking among themselves about how no lows came in for 45 minutes. And anytime the low came in, it was always with an ace or a two which gave the low to some Donkey playing 3-4 for a low. If two low cards flopped, the low never got there. The only hands I won those sessions were when I had an Ace deuce and made a full house. The other players are Mega-Donkeys but their sucky hands kept making full houses on boards where there was no low hand possible. And if you play an Omaha 8 sit and go on that site, the same thing happens, only worse. In the Sit and Go's, you are sure to find a maniac or two capping every pot and you are left folding your A-2-3's after another JJ9 or 977 flop just made the donkey a full house. I understand that weird things can happen with variance, but this has happened for hundreds of hands over several sessions. |

If you don't already know then here it is - after ten of thousands of hands played and months playing... and nearly 10K in deposits - both myself and a friend were ever hardly able to make any worth while cash outs.
If you don't know... Poker / Joker Stars is software/code/data programmed for house advantage! They have literally turned ten of thousands of players into what I call rake *#^%$ or bit...es - you get the idea. Someday they will get what is coming to them as all things that come around go around and it would not surprise at all that the FEDS will finally bring some heat down on them and some of the higher ups will more than likely have their chance to make amends (in prision!)
In my opinion they are cheating by pre-programming cards for house advantage or full house rake. These all too often occurrences are a tell tale sign that they are lying cheating dirty rotten low down CHEATS !!!!
Screw Joker Stars! |
