Never a truer statement! And, it is so obvious. I play fulltilt now. What a difference. Tough players but a great site.

The only advantage people can have are those poker analyzer programs, that read your hand and tell you the percentage of winning. Other than that, texas holdem can be a lotto sometimes for some players. With free games people dont care. Try playing a game like 7 stud or badugi. Or HORSE if you want a variety. You can play a horse freeroll at carbon poker, reg starts at 10:15am and game starts at 12:15pm every day.

thats not cheating. if he is cheating he will fold before the flop. think about it, if he know you had JJ he will fold. i had a bad beat yesterday losing all my chips. i had AQ , he had 88. flop came 5Q5. he raised but i went all in.
he made a set on the river. there i no cheating here. if someone beats u with a 10 high and you have 7 8 suited and they didn't flop anything or had nothing on the river then this is cheating.

In most badbeat cases the person just dont care if he gets knocked out,specially in the beginning.You dont see this in a $100 buyin or something,just mostly freerolls

I agree that there is a big difference between freerolls and $100 buy in tourny. Last time when I was short stack I went all in with AK, one player called me with 2 3, the flop was unbelievable 223, I think that I dont have to continue with turn and river.

Nope, people do not cheat. I know that there are calculators out there and I even heard of Ultimate Bet firing one of its programmers because he set up Super accounts for his friends, enabling them to see everyone's cards. But that was an isolated incident. And the poker rooms' software always comes with snoopers these days that can detect whether someone is using the calculators or not.

That's just a bad beat.
When i get beaten like that I try thinking: would i do everything the same way as i did? And when the answer is yes I don´t mind cause I'll get him next time.

One of the drawbacks or playing in freerolls and lower limits is that a lot of people don't care about playing quality poker. They'll play any 2 cards and hope to crack you. The chances of hitting a flop are 1 in 3 or so with an average hand. Not too sure if loose players are aware, but they play that way and possibly the reason for sooo many outdraws.

there is no cheating the players can do but sometimes i think the site is they want more money in the pot so they get a higher rake bad beats are just apart of the game without them your the luckyiest player ever then
