Bonus Paranoia?
This might just be me being bitter, but anyone else seem to have their cards go dead whenever they make a bonus eligible deposit?
Every time I do, I get the curse of the reverse odds - whenever I go in as a 2-1 favorite I win about 1/3 of the time, and a coin flip might as well be a dice roll. Never again, I'll clear this one off and I'll earn my money from now on. |

'I make between 1.5 and 3bb/100 at PP though(depending on stakes) so I know I am a winning player. But stars, never fails me'
LOL - have you considered that perhaps Stars is a harder site? I was a big winner at Party and a loser at Stars for ages - at least 18 months- if you are only winning 2PTBB at Party I would expect you to be losing at Stars.. it wasn't that Stars is rigged - of all the sites it is the one that is the most 'straight up' - it was that at the stakes I was then playing at Stars was far tougher for my style of play.. |

Stars is a tougher site to play limit, however the games are still very beatable. I thought I mentioned I considered the losing streak to be an effect of variance, not a conspiricy. |

I don't believe for a second that any major site is rigged. It's just that Stars has the best record for customer service of any site - and the reputation for the most fair dealing with customers - that is what I meant by 'straight-up'.
If you are going to be paranaoid enough to allege that any site is rigged then Stars is the least plausible to pick.. |

It's you.
I play better on a bonus, tighten up just enough. |

Re: Bonus Paranoia?
My cards seem to go dead after a nice upswing that induces a cashout. Hmmm, maybe there's a cashout curse or something?

Always remember, online poker is rigged. It's the only explanation.

Re: Bonus Paranoia?
I only play at pokerstars when they have a bonus. And i always cashout(after the bonus) with less money then I deposited. I make between 1.5 and 3bb/100 at PP though(depending on stakes) so I know I am a winning player. But stars, never fails me. I deposit, go on a downswing, and cash out with 20 bucks less then I had. However I will continue to do their bonuses. I know variance is a pain in the ass. So from now on I am going to let them stack, so i can actually put in a good 10,000 hands and see what my winrate really is at stars.
