I am very tilt prone on the Internet. My solution which sadly I don't always follow is: After 2 bad beats in a session, I have to quit and go do something else.

If you are tilt prone you have to do this to protect your BR.

My problem with Paradise is the place is so sloooooow. Once I'm done whoring them, I'm outta there. They seriously need to buy new equipment and let their operation run smooth and fast if they want to keep their players. The other day the whole place crashed. What a disgrace. The rest of the time it feels like a crash is coming soon.....

Slow software, but the play is very very poor (at least at .5/1). Propably worse than party. I've played about 3k hands there, and it seems very natural for people to hit quads and straight flushes every day.

i think the biggest thing i've noticed is there is one person at every table who is consistently hitting every hand they go in on. i mean the guy just delivers bad beat after bad beat with an occasional "legit" hand.

i'm not one to whine about bad beats usually. they happen. in fact the guy who delivered usually will then pay me back and more chasing all these ridiculous hands calling me down to the river with 7 high.

but there has definately been a noticeable increase in the player on a rush lately and i just cant fathom how its possible. i've played on paradise for over 2 years now and only in the past few months have i seen this activity increase about 10 fold. either they've worked out a deal with the devil, or something else is going on.

but then i think, no its just dumb luck. a statistic so small that the amount of hands i've seen, it has to happen to someone, or at least 1 person per table lately (/sarcasm).

and then i wonder, when the hell is gon' happen to me? when do i get to sit down and double up at the 5/10 in 3 hands playing 72o and 93o versus a 4 bet pf against a field of AA KK and JQs and hit my 999 flop with running 3's on the river just in case?

i feel like such a tool whining about all this, but really it happens and im not even one to whine. its uncanny.

maybe we should ask the paradise liason people on here what sort of account we need to set up to hit these progressive jackpots? (im kidding).

Yeah, I've gotten to the point where Paradise is no longer novel or a change of pace. It's just a grind. I moved up limits to clear the reload faster just so I don't have to play any more hands than absolutely necessary on that site.

No hand histories written to the hard drive + slow-rolling = sucks.

after a week straight of continual miracle river cards (being 3, 2, 1 outed constantly) and missing every [censored] ing flop and going through my worst downswing in my life, i am never playing there again. i've seen crazy mf'ers sit down and hit every flush and straight draw and be constantly rewarded besting out my top 2 pair at every effin' table.

Your story doesn't add upp, sir.

[smokingrobot]

what do you mean it doesnt add up?

i meant other people are catching miracle cards.

edit:

i see what you're saying.

what im doing here is using hyperbole when i say i miss every flop.

hyperbole: A figure of speech in which exaggeration is used for emphasis or effect
