2 people having pairs!!!! none random dealing
Ive held on for about 2 months now but now im fed up.
is there anyone else out there who when they get a pair they know that someone else has one. 8 times out of 10 i get a pair and low and behold i make a big bet and some one calls and yes they have a pair too. Whay do they do this, i reckon it must be to get us out quicker going all in so we have to enter more games. its far to frequent for it to be chance. i have two friends who agree totally with me. does any one else experience this.
im ready to leave sky poker as the dealing of cards is not random!!!!!

Like you say mate, complete non-randomness. Like just now, I have a pair of 4s and make a big bet, then look what happens. The next person makes a bet obviously they have a pair!
Sky need to sort this out and give us pairs 1 at a time like should happen when they are random.
Sick how riggedy rigged everything is.
Life is obvs rigged... like the matrix?
top 10 tips for pairs:
1. Are they Big Pairs or small pairs or medium sized pairs?
2. Is it a big bet, medium bet or small bet?
3. Are you going all in with your pairs?
4. Are you folding any pairs?
5. Do you have a pair?
6. after an allin do you need to change a pair?
7. The animals went on 2 by 2 in pairs?
8. have you got a loverly pair?
9. www.pairusup.com if your lonely and want to see a pair?
10. What do pairs grow on?
come on guys put your heads together on this one as 2 (pair) heads is better than 1
But seriously if you want people to respond rather than saying its fixed put on how your getting beat so we can help you with your play im sure they dont mean it and would be happy to give you any advice if you need it
The following table shows the probability that before the flop another player has a larger pocket pair when there are one to nine other players in the hand.

Not sure if this helps. But it's interesting none the less...
Nope, not on a loosing streak, it must just be me then. always wondered what the odds might be so that chart was good thanks. i usually notice that if i get any pairs lower than 99 someone more often than not has picture pairs.
I know that doesnt mean ive lost the hand etc and its down to me to win it sure, butstill its a bit dodgy if you ask me. other than that sky poker is ace. mmmm the jury's out on this one!
Its common , very common
Live with it and play with them
Bluff Bluff
More to this game than good cards
Dont be a fish all ya life
Cheers

The pairs I get annoyed with is in the DYM games is pair after pair after pair coming up on the flop. Its just unreal, and the times you call the bluff they have hit tripps.
The only thing you can do is do what I do and thats play the free rolls and just play with that money. I've won over £25 this last week in freeroll just to lose it on the turn and river cards in the double you money lol.. I have only won 1 DYM in the last few days and that's when i didn't even play I couldn't get the site to load lol..
Its all good fun but if you playing with your own money and at high stakes I would be going through laptops like anything lol.
I'm not complaining though as I love the freerolls lol then skybet lol
