I'm a winning player at my local casino. I play the $2-$5 no limit holdem and makes about $3000 in a month.

But when I tried Pokerstars, I always get "screwed" in the cash games. For example, whenever I get QQ or KK, someone else always seems to have AA. Luckily I didn't lose too much money because I was only experimenting with the penny games. I also seem to witness a lot of all in "races" between hands like AQ and 77, and the flop will be AQx, but the river will often be the 7. So sick.

So yesterday I wanted to try to sit n goes. Always suspicious of online poker, I only started with the $10 sit n go. The first hand I got 99 on the button so I raised. The big blind called with K8. Flop was K98. The turn was a K so obviously we both went all in and I had about 20 chips left. I put him on AK or KQ.

So I went all in the next hand with Q5 to get it over with. I had about five callers. But the board ended up looking like 576QQ and I actually won the hand against five people.

That's crazy. I'm not sure if online poker is completely random, and I don't think anyone knows for sure. But I'm not making money. Then again, maybe I haven't played enough.

Any comments?

Well, that's probably where the problem lies...

I have to recommend Cardrunners for superb poker coaching. It was honestly the single biggest improvement in my game signing up there! Sign-up fee might seem steep, but it pays itself back within weeks.

After losing the all in, I had 20 chips and everyone else had 1500. This was early in the tournament and the BB was 20 and I will be the BB next hand anyway. I don't know what you are criticizing me for... If you have nothing constructive to add please don't say anything.

lol, dude I'm only joking.

maybe I do suck. who knows. after all, I'm only make $3k a month in my local boat as opposed to $30k. But since you are so good, can you teach me how to avoid such a situation, which just happened 2 minutes ago: I was in a sit n go and I had AA and a short stack went all in with K6 and I called him. Board was 649KT and I doubled him up.

I really hate making mistakes like this and I hope you can teach me a thing or two on how to avoid it in the future.

Thing is we have heard the same thing time and time again. Someone comes along with their first post about how they win live but can't win online cos they get really unlucky and they think it's rigged blah blah blah.


It's nothing personal, but with a first post like that you aren't going to see many constructive comments.
