Hi matman
I’m sorry to hear this.
As moderator i can be short, the program is fair, it is poker, every hand can win. And you never know with what hands the other players stay in the hand.
Sometimes i play on other sites, to feel the poker there, to compare the play style, mostly i play for small money, and i see the same things as here.
When i go all in with AK, i get called by player with AA, or when i go all with short stack and have 88, get called through player with 10 10 and i lose. (or one of us hit trips) I see 3 players with a pair calls an all-in. I see the same kind of flops on the table as at ReplayPoker. Cards and dealing feels the same.
As regular player i understand you and i’m sure all regular players know the feeling having days that you lose with all kind of hands. You lose with AA, AK, KK…you get frustrated, start playing bad hands, start betting too much and start bluffing. Even you change from seat, and you see another player is winning much on your old seat while you keep losing on your new seat. With other words…you lose and lose…that is frustrating.
Now i hear you thinking, she can talk easily with her bankroll, but i’ve been there too, i played the first year only at the low stake tables and Sit & Go 1k tourneys, i was happy if i won 5k on a day. When i had 1 million i started on the medium tables. And i never forget i lost all my chips (few millions) in 30 mins with the game “All-in-or fold”. I had to start with 2500 chips again.
As game the game poker is “not fair”, the game not looks who lost x hands and needs to win, it is never your turn to win a hand. You can lose whole day with good hands. You need to get the cards, need to hit, need luck, need skills, bluff on the right moment. And the guts to fold your good hand.
What is very important on ReplayPoker, keep your fun in the game, you often play with the same players, you know them, more important they know you and your play style. I know you like to play at the high medium tables, you have your friends there.
Maybe try to get back your fun in the game first, you dont have to buy chips, you can start with 2500 chips and start at the low stake tables, play the freerolls, and the satellites, just relaxing. Play, chat a bit, have fun. Do not think about win back all you lost, that works against you.
Get back the fun first.
Greetings Happiness.
