New Jackpot Jay Mailbag....whoa...
We have some zingers in this one....some tidbits:
This from an "online pro": "My results ... much better than Year 1. And in Year 3, I've refined this technique. I can almost smell the "bad" beats I am about to lay on people now, and my results have been stupendous this year. There is absolutely no question in my mind that online poker juices up the games. It really is the only way they could possibly ensure a steady customer base. If the games didn't cater to the fish, pretty soon the sites would just be oceans of sharks (who don't generate big rake pots) with all the "donators" scared off by the ruthless efficiency with which their money was taken from them." I LOVE this one: "Not too long ago, my roommate didn't receive the promised bonus for his deposit at a poker site. Upon calling their customer help line, the lady said that for the next hour he would receive some "luck." She then ended the call with "happy fishing." Needless to say, we saw a lot of runner-runners and miracle saves and steak dinners. I hope that this answers your curiosity." And for those that want to play Jay..."I usually play on Captain Cooks, a Prima site, under the name Jackpot Jay. Come and get me."

Re: New Jackpot Jay Mailbag....whoa...
"I have a buddy list that lets me watch when certain players sign on. I add the players to my list that seem to never lose. There is this one guy who I have never seen take a bad beat. I've watched him play hundreds of times (all at $2-4 NL) and he seems to "know" when he will win. It's not just that he's a good player; he's superhuman. He'll call all-in bets pre-flop with JJ against someone else's AA and hit his jack ... every time. He always brings $400 to the table, but I've never seen him leave with less than $1,000. Ever. But yet I still play. What is my problem?"

Other players have noted the same thing -- a guy got busted on a terrible bad beat and some of the people started chatting that "he must have just cashed out" or "looks like it's his turn for (Poker Site X) to punish the cash out." Just so stupid.. so stupid. |

It really pisses me off that he gets paid to write 1 column a week and about half of his columns consist entirely of cut and pasted emails.

People that read ESPN are the big demographic for poker playesr and it's not good if ESPN readers start believe that online poker is rigged.

I don't think it will stop people from playing. All it does is adding yet another layer that people can blame for their losses.
