    Default Poker Tournaments Online.. How Come?

    How come alot of the time I see the same guys that make it to the final table alot, I know this may seem like a dumb question, but for online poker its crazy, Im a pretty good player or so ive been told, but I have observed some of these guys play and they seem to never miss a draw , or rarely do. I would just like to know if anyone has any good poker strategy for tournaments.

    1.) They are the best players.
    2.) They're not drawing to pocket pairs or inside straight draws, they are only drawing to flush and OESD draws in pots that are big or will likely be big on the river.
    3.) Just try to collect a lot of chips without risking your stack. If you accumulate a lot, use those to win more.

    They are the sites own pokerbots, and they get dealt AA when you have KK, Ace high flushes when you have K high flushes..........

    There are TONS of missed draws...but you rarely see them because players fold.

    Everytime you see a player call to the river, then fold...it's probably a missed draw.

    Your selective memory is being selective.

    He's joking, Stang. A lot of us are from a group that were frequent posters on the Poker Pages forum that was hijacked by 3 or 4 hot threads a week about online poker being rigged.

    To answer Kireal. These guys are masters at finding the best situations to pick up chips making a lot of draws freerolls when they choose to draw. Many of them also play EVERY tournament available over the day's span. 5 final tables a week are very common with the teecoys of the virtual world.

    i understood that he was joking, and i in no way have a "conspiracy theaory" but i do wonder...lol it could happen, but when they are making money on rakes and what not, it wouldn't really be worth the risk...

    well, thanx guys...i may be new to this forum but i have been around a little while....i have been playing all kinds of card games for awhile and have been on forums for awhile....just stuck mainly to some car forums and a few video games forums...glad i can be accepted...some forums seem to bash on noobs no matter what you do...especially when it comes to the search button...my goodness, sometimes your search results are way to long and you have no way to slim it down, so you just post again...


    you guys are not the a-holes like some of these guys in other forums. :good:
