    and has for poeple saying sky rigged sometimes it is because wen I was the chip leader I was owning players with  A/10 a/j etc finished 3rd in a freeole tourney with 400 players, was on friday(not bad) but I was chip leader until I made 1 error with 10/3 hit 2 pair as well but lost to a fullhouse

    my top cards was holding out etc

    this post is a brag but i do think sky does favor the chip leader 

    won £5,50 on Friday 1st Tourney i won money in not bad maybe depsoit again

    If Sky favoured the chip leader, how would anyone else ever become the chip leader?
  • edited October 2013
    is this not obvious?!
     
    you don't become chip leader by being unlucky?! so of course the chip leader has had favourable luck to (a) get to be chip leader and (b) stay there.

    It's a bit like saying sky doesn't favour the guys who lose all their chips?!  

    Just replace the word "sky" with "lady luck" and you'll be closer to what's really going on!

    Was Sky ''rigged'' when you won that tournament on Friday then?

    No wait, I get it. It's rigged when you bust a tournament, but it's fine when you win one.

    So,your advice to players is......."get the chip lead,call everyone's all ins with.."shet" cards, and they will win"?
    (Or at least come 3rd in a freeroll.
    I eagerly await your next piece of poker advice,

    I think it is very sound advice to try to become the chip leader. I am going to try it and see if my luck improves.

    Not sure why everyone here is arguing - it is already well established that Sky Poker is rigged, just like the EuroMillions lottery draws, the Football pools, that job interview I went for last week and didn't get - oh, and life itself.

    Jesus Christ get a grip! It's bloody poker! You were outdrawn in a freeroll, boohoo. Try bricking £800 worth of tournaments in 4 weeks, in prep for the biggest ever UKOPS festival. There are hundreds of hands I could post in here from recent weeks, but I grasp the concept of poker. You don't.

    Close the door on the way out.

    You are a lost cause.

    have you ever considered the well known all in situation AK v QQ preflop because that man is a very common all in situation and I can tell you now the winners of that hand is a coin flip in itself, just put in pokerstove AK v QQ and you'll find out AK wins  43%( 46% if suited) and the QQ will win 53%


    really it's not much different with AK v 10 3 AK-69% 10 3-30%

    the 10 3 here is in the same spot as AK is in when it faces QQ, in other words it needs to hit a 10 or 3. the only added benefit for the AK is, unlike when the AK goes ahead versus QQ here if 10 3 went ahead OTF the AK has got a minimum of 6 cards that would put AK back infront again(providing 10 3 only got 1 pair OTF) whereas QQ only has 2 cards to go back infront when AK goes ahead.

    WOW

    I think the OP might be onto something here. I've gone back over some hand histories and I can see a pattern emerging. And interestingly it is only the chipleader that has it. Would be interested if some of you know it all regs could check your histories as well.

    What I've discovered is that when short stacks lose a flip they often get knocked out of the tournament. But when the chipleader does he always stays in. Never can I see an occasion when he gets knocked out - not one - zippo. 

    Weird eh.

    I would find it quite flattering that Sky had rigged the site specifically for me to lose my flips.
