F'ing Party Poker

I don't know how many of you play on Party Poker, anyone who does knows all about the bad beats that the site is infamous for.

I got totally screwed last night in a freeroll for entry into a $200k tourney. With 12 people left in the tourney I had $30k in chips sitting with a King high flush after the flop. I slow play the thing and after the turn card some toolbox goes all in, they were holding $20k in chips, there was a total of about 35-40k in chips total in the pot. So, I call and the clown only has 2 pairs, but on the river the guy catches a boat, such bs, in the end I made it to the final table and finished 10th out of 372. These bad beats on party poker get old quick.

party poker seems to be the worst, but nothing you can do about you have to try and play around it.

wouldn't have mattered in this case, he hit the two pair off the flop, he would have went all in anyway, he was a very aggressive player.

Have to agree with the JP'r. Party Poker is the world's largest on-line poker site. There are soooo many pigeons it is incredible. Unfortunately, these ass-clowns will call with crap and usually hit the river. You have something solid, push these pussy's out early. I know your pain.

I dont think you can help the cards being dealt by the site you choose to play at, but
the crowd at Party can be moronic and catch a good player luckily. Try Full Tilt
