Do not even try to deny that hands are set up to encourage betting for more rake, you are delusional if you say other wise.

I stopped playing significant stakes around 2 months ago because of the disgusting cards I see here

I put a fiver in every now and again to satisfy curiousity, here is my latest.

I have sent skypoker abusive emails in the past, and I think they have cursed my account, I can not remember the last time I won a hand lol, stuff like this happens EVERYTIME

    There was only 3 cards in a deck of 52 that he could have hit to win the hand, and he hits the most ball crushing one of the 3, so yes, it is disgusting, and yes, you are a f'ingmoron for being sarcastic.

    And that "Q,7" was a f'ing strong queenseven, both cards paired on the flop, which believe it or not, makes my hand a lot stronger than pocket aces.

    Dunno, don't think so. Only a guess but does this show up like this if a player's doctoring a post to disguise the fact he limped in with Q7o?

    On a more serious note, its been a long time since I went to a Disco but I remember there being lots of pigs there. They were Big and I wished I was Blind.

    Coincidence?

    did you not know sky hired black magic experts to curse accounts ?? every time you post up a hand where your starting hand is average and loses to a better hand you get the curse of accountamania for 6 months

    Think you'll find that he had 3xjacks and 3xfives available to make a better 2 pair as well as 2xaces. that makes 8 cards. Incredulous that q7 cant win 5 handed though...

    OP Statement is a bit daft  saying everytime lol, but the win on the river is quite normal on here, in fact i would say the percentages are nothing like what they should be for the hands that hit, especially 'action hands'

    I absolutely could'nt agree more , but i suppose that is the way in which alot of the hands were set up to be ??

    I mean if they are pre determined the sequence could easily be set out in this manner yeah ??

    I think there are 8 cards in the remaining 44 for him to hit, which is significantly better than 3 from 52. It happens, you dont notice the times your hand holds up move on

    I am not in your team but after being on the final table yesterday with Snedd and GaryQQQ I thought i would pop along and see your team forum area! Much to my surprise I found this post. The double BB situation is interesting. Possibly he auto posted, hence the double bb. However, to say the site is fixed and Sky have put a curse on you is kinda outrageous. There are MANY beats on ALL sites... Unfortunately this is one of those situations. The player limping with aces got lucky.... He played the hand wrong pre... Done nothing wrong in later streets cos it is a wet board and you could of had a big draw or top pair decent kicker so he felt his aces were good. Like you didnt wanna see anymore cards he probably thought the same too! I have been on a final table of a bounty hunter tournament and hit top set aces against set of 5's he rivered the 5 for a 270k pot. Did i think it is rigged??... Hell NO.... I said nh people went crazy on the rail... It was a great hand to watch and I simply took the bad beat and went on to still win it. 

    The real issue here is your pyschological thoughts. Once you start to believe a site is rigged or your account is mysteriously been put on auto lose by the site, then you need to switch it off and give it a break. Clear your head and get your mind set in a better place. There is NO such thing as rigged site. Remember it is a program that plays out hands.... Yes there are "set-up koo's".... in DYM MTT and CASH... Is it Skys fault that they bring the game we all love with added benefits like a community chat area... interactive play and also tutorial lessons. PS and all the other sites just take your rake and dont even say a word, apart from the odd generic mail from one of their team players saying come play with us, you got a chance to win this and that. So come on my friend... lets be realistic... Get out of the mind site that your account is cursed and the site is rigged cos that is your NUMBER 1 issue here because without a clear mind set of those demon thoughts... YOU truly can never win. 

    Power of the mind is also a key attribute in our game.... So I truly hope you can get over this mind set you have found yourself in and who knows one day you might hit the ace on the river :) 

    Sorry for the extremely long post but this is my 2 a penny input for what its worth. 

    Good luck at the tables and have FUN!

    Regards, PB

    If Discopig had won the hand he wouldn't have posted this. Instead the player who would have had his aces cracked may have posted a thread complaining of how aces never hold up.

    I see a pattern.

    Only read OP bud, but I feel confident this would have already been said.  You play an awful hand and flop a vulnerable 2pr.  Dint even to check if it lost but i assume it dud.  One bad hand, played bad and flopping badly does not equal a rigged site. 

    If you truly believe this, and I'm not saying your wrong, why not offer up the accumilation of hands that leads to your cast iron belief rather than one hand in isolation bud.

    Good skill out there.
