Your a good player, We regually meet on the final table of the £22 d/s and have had a good couple of heads up games. PLEASE DONT TURN TO THE DARKSIDE!!! You know what your saying is rubbish and its just variance. The luck will change and you will soon be hitting those miracle outs when you need them.

flash is right it is just variance mate and if you stick at it the cards will turn for you.dav

Every poker player online is assigned a value between 0 and 100 against them at the start of the game, this represents their likelihood of winning the tournament. This value determines such things as how many decent starting hands you get, how many flops you hit and how often your big pairs will stand up. Because you complained your value has been assigned one of the lowest amongst your fellow players and this is why your Kings got cracked by 37, if you hadn't complained then your value would have been higher and KK would have probably ran out the winner in that particular hand. Hope that helps.

That's not strictly true.
I've been a really good boy (some/many might say "a right creep") and I have been assigned a global value of 105. I do feel guilty at times but the money helps me overcome the shame.
I know of at least two players who have been assigned a rating of -13 and they are, unsurprisingly, suffering a long streak of negative variance.

I've found that if you withdraw any money from the site you get a negative rating for the next 3 months to teach you the error of your ways.

I know how you feel. I have just joined Sky Poker to get away from bieng rivered repeatedly on my usual site.
I recon that s the best thing to do rather than persist during a poor run on one site. Inevitably you will hit poor runs and outragious losses to donks cos there are a lot of them about. As I see it you have 2 choices to end a poor run. Take a complete break from poker or play elsewhere.
My second game on Sky was nice. £5 bountyhunter and I won it. So I promptly withdrew £100 and took her indoors shopping yesterday.
Will be interesting to see if the post withdrawal games go poorly. Thing is that there s no point in winning if you don t take a profit.
Will find out today as I need to be home to take delivery of goods bought yesterday from my winnings.
