Bad beats!

I think bodog. You can't bet big enough, early in a tournament to get anyone to fold their "any two suited " and it flushes by the river.

i totally agree.it isnt so bad in the big cash tourneys cause they are better players,but when u play in smaller tourneys and especially freerolls,they like to go all in with garbage and usually catch the cards they need to win

that's funny, i was just playing "bodog" and went to the rail on a river flush.

Full tilt isn't much better.....

I think that all the sites are the same. especially in low limit games and freerolls players will make crazy moves especially in freerolls with nothing to lose

For me, Absolute Poker has the worst bad beats. For me, Bodog seems to have a lot less. However, I remember some donk called my raise with Q 3 off and I had A A. He hit two pair on the flop.

Come on - you get screwed everywhere...if you're playing well

IDK i like bodog...I've done best on their website you have to just roll with punches of other players playing their King duece suited like its rockets...play smart and premium hands and you'll make it far

bodog has some good players by the higher stakes though. I mean The Bodog_Maven himself, is from bodog.

I should have noted that I think it's pitbullpoker try playing a freeroll there, it is THE WORST site on the net.

I figured it out. You will NEVER win money on any of these sites making small deposits($100-$300) playing NL Hold Em for cash. You may grind it out and get it up to 800-1000 bucks, but in the end the rake and bad beats will drain you. If you got a bankroll which I'm guessing you don't if your here, you can make money playing on Pokerstars or Full Tilt in the higher stakes PL Omaha games. Anyone notice all the big poker pros stay away from NL cash games on their endorsed poker sites. Most of the pros play Tourneys or PL Omaha. Good Luck if your gonna make a career out of this.

Bodog is the worst

raydog · 08-16-09, 01:00 PM

just sat down for a few hours at bodog to blow some freeroll money... worked it up to a few hundred and then the shit started to hit the fan. rivers making straights and flushes left and right. flushes losing to garbage boats with river junk. flop sets only to lose to bigger sets made by guys calling big after the flop raises...it was a slap in the face how bad the software is
cash games get raped with the rake with bullshit outs hitting everywhere... i play at 3 other sites and have never seen the the garbage i just witnessed in a few hours at bodog....do not deposit at this site if you are trying to make money. great place to have fun and is user friendly, but if you care about your sanity, you wont put yourself through the up and down garbage at this place.

Exactly. Anyone on here saying one site is worse than the other for bad beats has no idea what they are talking about. Bodog isn't going to purposely make weaker hands win and neither is any other site. Bad beats happen more online because people are much looser and you will see a ton more hands per hour than a live game would.

Over the last 7 years I've played at Paradise poker, Pacific poker, Party poker, Empire poker, Sportsbook poker, Full Tilt, Poker Stars and Bodog and while there are definitely differences in the sites and the levels of play there is no difference in how the cards fall.
