How wrong you are. I've had a shocking run lately. If by your comments you mean it's fixed then you shouldn't even be playing the game. Take an anti neurosis pill and think about what you're writing.

I think that most sensible people would interpret that as you implying that the site was "fixed".

phaps thats u being a wannabe psychiatrist,or upholder of the skypoker(moneymaking offshoot of an already massive company) name..if i thought it was truly fixed i wouldnt play here..i left pokerroom(when it was pokerroom)because that was totally unreal...i also believe that 9/11 was instigated by Bush and his cronies
has no noticed that if you go in all in the person with the most money in that hand always even if he had worst it always seems that the dealer seem to pull out the exact card for that nand to win it seems your not playing against other players your playing the dealer and i know what iam talking about as i have been playing poker from school days 35 years ago so i know that the way these are delt it seem a bit funny Posted by sense

I was proud to have the name Phil as there are decent poker players with the name (Hellmuth, Ivey, Lack, *me cough cough*)..................now this guy springs up and shatters everything!!!!!!!
There is some confusion on this otherwise most eloquent of threads as to folding Aces on the Bubble, & the advice the Presenters & Analyasts may have given in that respect.
Let me clarify.
No Presenter or Analyst, or Pro, would ever advovate folding Aces pre-flop on a Cash Bubble or Final Table Bubble. Ever ever ever. Ever. Ever ever.
It IS - depending on circumstances, relative stack sizes, opponents stack size, & Blinds, often (usually, in fact) correct to fold Aces pre-flop on the SEAT BUBBLE of a Super-Sat, when Aces man already has his Seat locked up.

In Response to Re: dodgee dealers : But what about folding kings pre flop on the bubble of a WSOP event? I know a fellow who did just that on the bubble of his first WSOP tourney. I won't tell you who this is but he did go on to cash_imo. Posted by mmmchips
personally id rather cash ,than be a hero and go home with jack sheet.

Oh and by the way, I folded AA pre-flop once. Is was on the bubble in an Open sat. I had 180 chips but the guy 3 to my right was all in on the BB (2K-4K blinds). Got through and ended up getting a very nice cash. This is the ONLY, I repeat ONLY time that I would ever contemplate doing this (did I say ONLY).

James, it's not the op, it's this philmenow guy who's decided to come on and embarass himself silly.
