Default Re: There IS a difference between Party and Pokerstars tournaments.

I understand variance and all the rest.

It doesn't sound like it.

I have played around 100 tournaments on Pokerstars and I have lost with the best hand about 90% of the time.

Is this based on your impressions and recollections, or on empirical data? What is "the best hand"? If 2 players go all in on the flop, the outcome is often a virtual coin flip. Sometimes the hand that is ahead on the flop is not the statistical favorite to win.

Even, tho I have only played around 10 tournaments on Party I have not lost with the best hand once. It is always a matter of being blinded out.

Same questions as above. Also, the 100 hand sample above is meaninglessly small, and a 10 hand sample is not even worth discussing.
