Absolute
Does anyone play on absolute poker? I recently started playing for real money using my freerol winnings, and I have to say after around 10SnG's, Im still in shock!! This site is CRAZY!!
First off, I just couldn't lose. It seems one man on the table gets most of the cards. I was hitting str8 after flush after quads it was unreal. One game I had Ax, flop saw XAA, the turn was A! The next 3 hands, the same guy (not me) had pocket aces 3 times in a row!! The next 3 SnG's, playing LAG style, I was still getting all the cards and won them all.
But then the turn!! 5 in a row I was beat TERRIBLY! I was still getting cards but the board was producing the perfect scenario so that the only hand someone else could beat me with...they had. I hit str8s, they had better, I hit flushes, they had higher. And whilst I wasn't in a hand, almost every hand was a cracker. Ive never seen so many str8s in my life on any site! They say all sites are random, all the same cards blah blah..Rubbish!
My other regular site is boring as hell, a celebration if someone hits 2 pr!!

I haven't noticed this. I only play the cheap SnGs with some free money I have on there, I have been tracking them, and I am positive, but I actually found the site rather tight.
Maybe the WSOP brought in more maniacs?
Last two SnGs I played, I was down to 5 people in the CO.
I have about 3300 in chips, the button had about 3700, the blinds both have about about 1300. I had AK.
Don't remember the blinds, but probably 100/200. I didnt want to just put in a standard raise, because playing AK against two short stacks post flop is a crap shoot, so instead of sensibly just raising to 800-1000, I pushed, the button had TT and instacalled, I busted. Of course, even if I raise to 800/1000 I probabably would have called the button if he pushed getting that kind of money.
Next one, similar but I was UTG, and made a big raise PF with 55, BB called, flop was K66 and the BB raises all in about 2x the pot. This was the 3rd time in a row he has pushed on me. Figured he couldnt have that many big hands, and probably had AT, nope TT again.
I trust their flops and a lot of PT users player there, so there are a lot of hands of data. Just count your blessings. SnGs are brutal for streaks.

Maybe it was cos of my first few games. I've heard from a few people if you're new you hit the cards then go cold. We'll see

That is one of those "online is rigged" speculations.

Well I know one thing, the most common card on the flop has got to be an ACE. Every flop there's an ace man! It's ridiculous. Ok not EVERY, but got to be 90%

Based on small sample size, actual results may vary.

While your here, I cant be bothered starting a new thread. What does "into the tank" mean?
eg "Raymer fired $50k inot the pot, Ivey went into the tank..."
