Anyone play on Ultimate Bet? I don't if its just a string of bad luck for me lately or what, but does the underdog ever not end up making their hand when there's a showdown in one of their tournaments? Its getting ridiculous, I even noticed in the last tournament the dumber I played the better I ended up finishing. Not a good habit to get in, but I got frustrated as hell and said when in Rome....
3 nights in a row ive been in position to make a big score (big for me anyways) heres my last 3 hands in each.
KK vs K10..flop x10xx10
AA vs 1010.flop 67894
then this beauty last night, im down to maybe 4 BB'S and 3 people all short stacks go -all in ahead of me. i got 75os but hey ill never get better odds so i join in.
its AKvs AK vs44 vs75.flop 73544..
All these were at Party. It happens anywhere you play. rigged? i dunno, i doubt it but man it sure as hell is frustrating like a MF'R!!!
And o by the way i realize those pocket 4's were the preflop favorite.still a sunny beach to flop 2 pr and lose!

I hear ya, I don't know if its rigged or not either. I had been doing really good for a while. Had doubled my account at UB by just playing SNG's then as soon as I did that the bottom just fell out on me. Almost makes you wonder if they do have it rigged once you start doing to well to tease you for a while then pull the rug out from under you to try and get you to deposit more money. Its probably partially my fault too, when I was doing good I think I started playing too many hands too.
Just happened again in 6 person turbo sng. dealt pocket Q's, blinds 10-20 so I raise 105 (pot amount). guy to my right goes all in, he's chip leader, I'm in 2nd place all 6 still in. He turns over AJ, flor comes

turn 7

I swear this is like the 8th time in last 10 tournaments I've gotten a pair of Jacks or better and got called with AJ or AK and lost. According to the odds I found would make me 70.3% favorite against the 1 overcard and 56.9% favorite against 2 overcards. Sure doesn't seem to be playing out that way on Ultimate Bet....

check out these, twice within 4 hands. playing 6 handed SNG at ultimatebet.com
If life had the same odds as ultimatebet.com's poker room by now I'd have won the lottery and been struck by lighting, twice....
