Default Party Poker... Rigged?

First off, let me just say that I am not one of those morons who think that online poker is rigged. Those guys are idiots IMO.

I used my mom’s credit card to buy in to Party Poker without her knowing and yesterday I decided to play a 5+1 no limit single table tournament. OMG it was so ROFL. People were pushing all in with hands like 94 off suit. This should be so easy to win. I decided I should wait for a good hand and let one of these idiots double me up. So that’s when the following hand happened. With eight players left, blinds 15/30, I get 33 first to act and go all in for 680. Only the player in the big blind calls. The flop came AK4J8. The guy had J8 suited and I got knocked out eighth. I was so mad at the bad beat. According to my odds calculator at cardplayer.com I was a favorite to win the hand before the flop and and like a 78% favorite after the first three cards were dealt.

After the SNG I decided to play a cash game. I was down $6 from my initial $100 buy in. I figured that if I won one pot at 2/4 limit I would be up overall. So the third hand at 2/4 I get 44 in the seat with dealer thing. First to act raised, next person re-raised, and another person capped. I put everyone on AK off suit so I called. Flop came 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. It was checked to me and I checked to slow play my pot odds. The next card was K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. First to act bet and someone raised. I re-raised and the first guy capped it. I figured they must have hit their pair, but I had 3 of a kind 4s. The final card was 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. The first guy bet out and its was just me and him left. I decided he was bluffing so I decided to re-bluff him to win the pot and I raised. He re-raised and I capped and he called. He had A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. WTF?!? What a suckout!!! I was so mad. I said in the box “nothing I could do [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]” And another good player was like “yeah.” At least my read on the guy before the flop was good.

Anyway, like I said, I'm not one of those idiots who thinks Party Poker is rigged, but this should give you something to think about. Right now I’m at 50 dollar no limit if anyone wants to come play with me. I need to win some money so I can pay back my mom. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]
