    The Fuk Fest That is SBR Poker!

    I'm play'in in the 11pm tourney tonight and the same guy (PaperTrail07) wins 8 or 9 "all ins", at least 3 of them in a row! He had a 9000+ chip stack in a matter of minutes! Tell where in the fuk that happens anywhere else, on any other poker software?

    The poker software here is a god damn joke! Even by the law of averages, no player should win 9 shoves on the same fuk'in table in less than 4 minutes! The guy won every showdown, no matter if he was behind or ahead!

    This fuk'in place is gett'in ridiculous! With every new poker software update the fuk'in tourneys get more and more one sided or outright fuk'in stupid!

    Same stupid shit happened to me on Wed. night too. I'm hold'in pocket AA, shove all in on the button, get one call QK, flop comes 9, 10, J, and 2 other bullshit cards, and I'm the first one out. Pockets Aces get fuk'ed here more than a Vegas whore on Sunset Strip!

    And this is by no means a rant against PaperTrail07, I hope he wins at final table tonight. He's certainly got off to one hell of a fuk'in good start, 9000+ in chips vs everyone else at an average of 1500.

    Never see the kind of ass reaming poker software anywhere else I play except here, and I play a lot. Non pros win a lot more now, because the points don't buy them shit! Great scam you've got going. Take your fuk'in poker client and shove it straight up your ass sbr, I'm fuk'in done.

    I could be wrong but I think a lot of the crazy shit we see on SBR poker is because it's free, kinda like freerolls on real poker sites. Players take more risks and suckout more when they don't have money on the line.

    The software used to be or maybe still is WSEX poker software. They had poker as no rake loss leader to build business for the sportsbook. So if they didn't make money on rake don't see why they would rig it. So that would mean that SBR rigged it..for points

    That's the logical part of my brain..The other part agrees 100% SBR poker can drive you crazy and see more crazy shit than you do on real money sites.

    I'm tell'in you spankie, you were at that table, the bullshit was ridiculous! I can't believe Paper didn't make the final table, must have gotten some of those shitty bad beats later in the game. It's just gett'in to the point where one or two people will get great fuk'in cards all night and the rest of us get shit! I'm pretty sure it's to the point now where sbr just picks who the fuk they want to win that night and that's the way it plays out!

    Everyone on here that cries about bad beats on SBR poker have only themselves to blame. A Korean bot is so god-damn cheap these days.... but no... you all try to win using strategy. LOL!

    Yes Jeffie, you're exactly right, you can't do much with points unless you are Pro. So sbr "entices" you by letting you get in a bunch of finishes in the money. They're not losing shit by letting you place, even if it is 14th or worse. Don't worry, you'll win one soon enough, they got it down to a fuk'in science now, scam the Pros and let newbies and non pros win. Not to mention the fuk'in ringers who sit in on high stakes Sat. and Sun games. I don't even play here on Sat or Sun anymore, the ass fuk'ing without lube tourneys!

    Kindreds right. If you were playing for real money ud see better play overall. A lot of players dont seem to understand preflop play very well either.

    The software is almost setup to induce action. It awards multiple pockets in the same hand. Just yesterday there was an all-in with 4 people all holding a pocket pair. if you have a pocket pair you can certainly bet someone else does at the table. Also the software awards more runner runner winners than any other software I've seen.

    I'm not saying SBR rigged anything. I'm saying the software is setup to induce action. No other way to slice it. I've played with on this type of software elsewhere for years not and it's always the same thing.

    Ive started playing here just to ease back into poker after taking a few years off after we had our child. Black-Friday hit about the time I wanted to start playing on Stars and FTP again. I do not see much of a difference between SBR poker and other online clients as far as hands dealt or beats given on preflop all ins and that such of thing. If there is one pair dealt at the table mathematically you have a better chance of seeing someone else with another pair. Ive seen a crap load of hands online since 2003. The thing about SBR is that its free. People will play more loose generally when its for free.

    To those who are saying it's because it's free:

    It took me a few times being pushed around by RickySteve before it clicked in that 100 chips here doesn't = $100. I was still in FT mode. I'll call with stupid crap if I'm bored, need to go to sleep or whatever. When it's costing someone 11 points to enter, and you get 12 pts, or at least 6 the next day, how do you think it's going to be the same as playing normal poker? If I pay $50 to enter a FT tourney, I don't get another $55 the next day just for logging in the site. If it costs me 30 points to see a flop... THIRTY POINTS... I just might call. And my craphouse 9J-off might bust your AA out. Not $30. 30pts = less than 3 days of merely signing in here. If I have 99 and I think someone's trying to push me around and buy the pot, I may just call your 200 points. THEY ARE POINTS!!!!!!!!!!!! And as a result, you'll see a lot more showdowns on here than you would elsewhere other than in freerolls on the cash sites.

    As posters have pointed out to you repeatedly, mike - the same posters who applauded you when you said you weren't going to banshee about this anymore - if you really think SBR Poker is rigged... do us all a favour and just not play. There's no use getting repeatedly worked up over something as silly as this. Life's too short.

    haha

    I just think looking at the situation logically helps things out. Many of the poker regs have been at a table with me - even the big limit ones on here - where I've apologised for nailing them on crappy rivers, watched my massively dominant hand (my mathy nerd talk) get squashed by their doodie and whatever. People play like f'wits on here a lot of the time - including myself. Yes I realise points have value... I just bought my son an iPad thanks to betpoints. However losing 100 or even 1000 points at SBR Poker doesn't quite feel the same as losing the same amount of cash elsewhere. As a result, we see more flops and showdowns. People call more. All those times at PokerStars or FT when people said "damn, I had xx" and they would've smoked you but you didn't see their hand because they were too gun-shy to call? People call those here. I just take it with a grain of salt.

    Poker is not rigged. I wouldn't play heads up against John or Lou if it were. (Both of whom I beat by the way )

    Totally agree about getting to worked up over this. I play just for the excitement. I still have 12 rollovers to do i just dont like playing them. Just like playing the tourneys for bragging rights. I know this makes no sense but points don't control my life.
    I was at the table though it was a crazy ass run.

    I must be honest and said taht this year I do realy suck in tournamnets,
    Many bad beats because of poor plays get lucky, this torunaments are a freroll and this is a fact, and i also get upset when an a3 calls my rase when i have aa and the flop is k33 and i get busted, but this is poker, and this same players when on a ring game I get them crushed and paid me off whatever i lost in the torunament, so, i ll try my bet on tournament but if i fail, i will not feel that bad, as i can make the points back on a ring game.
    If you Mike take thesame aproach u will see that as frustrating as it is , you can not only get it back, you will also be vindicated.
    Do not worry , you will get them.
    Best regards

    I was at the table though it was a crazy ass run.
    If I could actually place in the final tourney standings, I'd be playing the dailies for the same reason. Obviously I understand why I can't but it's hard to get motivated to play when the end result means nothing (I too hate rollovers so I basically ignore my winnings - I just like to play tourneys). And I can imagine that run! I've had some crazy ones both ways. I was on one where I was saying sorry every 3rd hand. Just hitting stupid stuff that shouldn't have happened but I just kept calling because I was up so many points by then that I didn't care. The more I called, the more I won and then I've gone on some that made me wonder why the f I ever downloaded SBR Poker at all. One particularly bad one, I told Lou that if he had figured out a way to f with my cards he needed to stop now because I was getting nailed constantly by rags and I would slaughter him. And I was serious. After he explained about 90 times that he couldn't "control my cards", I think I still called him like 20 names. Not my proudest moment. And he wasn't even playing poker the poor guy

    it's free points people

    11 points a day, and you get 12 for free so big fukking deal if you lose the 11

    bad beats go on every day in live casinos for thousands of dollars at a crack and we get nothing but whining over 50 goddam cents that sbr gave you for free in the first place

    I played this week as I had some free time. Just do it to waste some time.

    In fact, during rolling them over, I just donate them as I went all in like 4 hands in a row.

    SBR poker is good to spend some time and have a little fun.
