Ok so fuck PS, for realz. It might not be a downsing I'm experiencing anymore, I might not just be able to run well or win on this site. Not saying it's rigged or anything, but I do think it's very possible to just run terrible on a site. And Stars is that site for me.

I'm sitting in my college library bored off my ass from studying for Economics, I threw $15 into PS with my debit card to just fuck around.

OBVIOUSLY, I win a $12 45-man turbo for $155 or whatever (either 54 or 55). OBVIOUSLY. So I say fuck it, I'd only be losing $15 and can't even cash out for 2 days anyway.

So I fire up 2 $55 SNGs. First one, I'm down to about 950 at the 75/150 level. I get 44 in the CO and push. I get 2 callers. JTo and AJo. A on the river OBVIOUSLY.

So in the second one, this bullshit proceeds to happen. If there was ever someone doomswitched on Stars, it's me.

Also, I thought the play was supposed to be better at these levels?

These hands are within 5 of each other.

*********************

Now I have never once accused a site of being rigged. I chalk it all up to variance. But I just find it hilarious that I put in $25 or $30, win $150+ (you've seen the threads, guys) then proceed to get my ass handed to me by the POKERSTARS DOOMSWITCH OF DEATH.

I'm jumping back into FTP when I "officially" come back with a bankroll in the middle of the summer. I understand I pretty much bring this all on myself by depositing small ass amounts and then playing underrolled. I understand that so save the lectures. But the thing is, this doomswitch has been bending me over for the last month and a half even when I did have a bankroll. I dropped 22 straight BIs (you've seen those threads too)

So I'll be coming back in the middle of the summer with $600 and I'll be on FTP and UB. I'm going to multi-table the $11s and sign up for rakeback under both sites. I was thinking of coming back and playing ring but honestly, while the money might be there, ring bores the shit out of me.

1day the truth will come out. I think they could easly mess with players chances of winning quite easily. but proving it would be near impossible.

That's real, I take it?
