  1. Ummmm......this blows. Live poker is rigged (on the East Coast)

    Sets for All
    With the board showing AK9, the player in seat 4 bets out $15,000. Jason Strasser calls, putting him all in. Carmine Tirone re-raises all in and is called by the player in seat 4. The player in seat 4 shows 99, Strasser turns over KK and Tirone flips up AA. The turn is the 7 and the river brings the Q. Tirone's Aces hold up and he now has $56,000.
     
  2. its why i hate live play, crap like this rarely happens online
  3. Make sure you check out PocketFivesLive, Court is doing a great job covering a lot of great Pocketfivers playing today, including Johnnybax, JoeytheB, PetetheBeat, Jennicide and many more!

    Sorry to see Strasser go down in such a brutal hand.
  4. rarely happens online? wow, i think it's the other way around... rarely take a bad beat in live poker at the borgata or taj... i take set over set consistently online though.
     
  5. when i was in vegas watching Ari play online, i once saw him hit a set of 5's on a T75 board

    every chip from every player went into the pot on the flop

    first player turns over TT, second player turns over 77

    Turn OBV 5

    live poker is not rigged, online poker is not rigged, bodogari is RIGGED
     
  6. earth to nala, live is rigged....the dealer 'deals' those cards and if youve seen rounders MANY things can happen, many many bad things happen, why would the computer screw you??

    just a little friendly sarcasm sir
  7. live is rigged? how? you make no sense... at the borgata, the dealer picks the cards out of the automatic card shuffler, cuts the deck and deals... how is that rigged?

    of course it's poker, anything can happen...
     
  8. hi nala, my name is sarcasm, nice to meet u
