I disagree. my experience on Poker tables has been more or less the same as when I play live.

    sounds like you should keep away from the chipleaders .they are chipleader for a reason,either very good players or on a hotstreak, or a combination of both.   dont think sky care who wins the hand they still get the rake

    There are bad beats on any online site or live. Its how you handle bad beats which makes the difference. I must say i did used to get wound up with bad beats, which made me play even worse.

    I now like 2 just laught it off and move on to the nxt hand. I havent looked back since.

    Gl at the tbs, and just remember the nxt bad beat is just round the corner, lol, Ozzie

    definately found more players on this site will play to the river regardless. I have even seen people go all in 7 2 off suit and hit 2 pair on the river, losing me my KK. This is despite me raising 4 times bb and going all in. people are strange.

    Sky might seem bad because you look upon your time on other sites with rose tinted glasses But if you move and play somewhere else you will see in their forum that it's so fixed and only on this site etc. Honestly trawl around each site and the comments are always the same

    Bad beats do no exist.
    You are only lending them your chips until you get them back with interest in another game.

    have you considered the possibility that there might be a few closet nutters on the site?

    i know it's a long shot, but i have heard tell of this phenomenon on earth

    rest assured though, there are none on the dark side of the moon, and there are none on Uranus

    have a go at the 2.20 buy in deep stacks mate--you can ride a few bad beats without losing ya stash,--and you wont be worried about the rake---cash tables are a very bad place to start---dont worry about the integrity of sky poker mate, that road is going nowhere--this is the best site you will find out there, and it,s 100% trustworthy, i can assure you---this is why a lot of people mock these threads, they simply cannot see where you are coming from---hope you give it a proper chance, so that natural variance evens out and you start winning-----floppa whoppa---oynutter

    BAD BEATS

    Hmmmm....something to do with RNG ...and electronic dealing cannot ...and is not real dealing ...im afraid!

    Dont play, online poker unless its free! I have a few grand spread over about 20 odd sites...never deposit! I just ride on the backs of those that do deposit and subsidise folk like me! Im a poker parasite if you like!

    Oh, and i take the bad beats to ...i just dont have to pay for the privilege of it costing me hard earnt cash !

    The reloaders cant be that good if they keep having to reload!  Muppets deposit! The real players are like me ...the "freerollers"

    hahahahah
