Anyone else find that it's harder to get good cards on u-bet? I am not talking about hole cards, I am talking about flops and such. I can play every hand and not hit anything. I play premiums, raise preflop, and do not even come close. I play middle cards, and flops aren't even close. Anyone else experience this? I know it is random but still, compared to other sites i think it is harder.

Definately true. That's why they don't have as much traffic as the other sites.

I don't get alot of flops either. But thats mainly because either I or my opponents fold preflop.

No, you don't know that or you wouldn't be asking this question.

No I meant it is random in the sense that it is a random number generator thing. Ubet does suck...in two days of playing I have taken more beats, or big hand, losses than usual. It's like a total set up...one guy has a set, another has some dumb straight and the other gets a flush. Everytime I have gotten a set I have folded to a straight (pretty obvious) or I got beat by one. Maybe I should just withdraw my money now and save myself the trouble. I was attracted to the 100% bonus.

I played there once. I started pushing all in with gutshot straight draws and backdoor flush draws. I was destacking people left and right. Ended up making 5K that way.
It's not what's inside that counts. Have you seen what's inside?
Internal organs. And they're getting uglier by the minute.

the way you are comlaining about ubet gives the impression that you are questioning how random they really are.

Irony doesn't really belong in the beginners circle (or on the internet as a whole, lol ).

@OP: Skip the whining, be properly bankrolled, and play solid poker.

play at least 4 tables. before u call or raise a flop look at your other tables. if any of your desired cards is already in use on another flop, say you hold 77 and there´s a 7 on two other flops, fold, your card won´t appear.

I have no interest in discussing strategy with a protege'. Your job is to remain quiet and listen. I have a very systematic approach that I will share with the right candidate and I promise that I will turn you into a force of nature and show you elements of the game of poker that you never knew existed.

Everyone is making fun of you here. The reason is that you're the so manieth player who complains about poker being rigged because you can't win.

If it hands out lots of bad beats it's not a very good set up is it?

If you want to rig a poker site you'd have it create more big hands which result in a split pot... that way both players lose a little but are still around to keep playing and generating rake.
Blah blah Op Blah blah
