H4H - ridiculous
« on: November 11, 2012, 22:53:42 PM »
The way BOSS runs tourney H4H all the way from the bubble to the final table is just plain ridiculous.

Completely kills the structure in the league game - reasonable stack becomes short stack with hardly a hand being played.

This is the single most tilting thing about BOSS tourneys. I thought they had fixed this in the last update. Just shows how long it is since I"ve cashed on BOSS.

Thinly veiled Brag I cashed ran deep post IMO  ;D.

But agree stupid! You would think Boss would iron out a couple of "irritating" software issues like pop ups and H4H. Maybe the powers that be may nudge our concerns to the appropriate quarters?

Oh god, not another "this site is rigged" post. Of course they use a random number generator, otherwise they"d be out of business very quickly!

You"ll also find Sky poker is rigged, as is Pokerstars as is every other one where anyone gets a bad beat. Just look in the chat box, there"ll always be someone telling you how it"s rigged, just after they"ve suffered a bad beat. Strangely they never mention it being rigged when they get lucky but that"s obviously a flaw in the software...   ::) ::) ::) ::) ::)

To be fair it"s more likely to be rigged than online!

I dont thinked "rigged" is the best word to describe it. TBH I have found that there are far more bad beats on the BOSS network than there are on Pokerstars, Im not talking about bad beats against me, Im talking about the BB I see just at the tables Im playing. Ofcourse there will be BBs where ever you play - Online or Live, but this network does have much,much more than I ever see on Pokerstars. I can be watchting an all-in hand and far too often I can predict the turn and river. Having said that all you have to do is adjust, I have played countless APAT tourneys online with all the various sponsors and have been reletivley successful sticking to my game, but I have to be honest when I play on this network I dont play Poker as such, I tend to "play the site".

Seriously, people it was a tongue in cheek comment.

Do you REALLY think that Matt or Des would operate a site on a network that was in anyway "shady"?
