tiltedbad,

I suggest you PM patriots. It doesn't take him long to know when something isn't right. He may be able to help.

the only way to make Zone playable is to change the player numbers from 1-6 to 1-1000. sorta like the tournies. Assign random player #s to each player and once player 57 quits their session, no1 is assigned that number again for at least 24hrs. Problem solved.

oh and player notes not disappearing would help in this case

Just had 10NL FR freeze on me. Still haven't got the money in my account after a few minutes. Pretty buggy, but I guess thats expected being brand new.

I agree with most that either not be anon or as Game_On said, use a numbering system to allow for some type of read.


Edit: Also at a regular 10NL 6 Max, can't read any hand histories and a message just popped up that they are restarting it. Must be site wide bugs right now.

I'm probably in the minority here, but I feel the opposite about this. I posted about it in the official thread.

I do not see any zone tables. Am I missing something? I have a zone hands option in the hand history download though

I also see a orphan check box on the bottom of my preferences screen. Is this the secret "turn off doom switch" option?

Money is back in my account and the table seems to be back up and running.

Thanks, but I don't have that tab. I think I know what the issue is now and will fix it later

I don't have the tab either, it is just blank and clickable but, crashes the client. Is it because of our mods COKE_MAN???

Edit: Yeah, moved out all modded files and let the client update then, moved them back

I've never ever said that any site is rigged, but after having lost 5 all in's in a row, with the odds tremendously in my favor, I can't help but be suspicious. The latest hand I lost, I went all in and was a 98.08 percent favorite, yet again, I lose. I had 7 heart, and 7 club on a 9 7 K board, and the villain had AK. So we ended up getting it all in, and guess what happens? The turn comes a 9, and the river comes a king, giving him full house to beat my full house. I know 98.08 percent favorite to win(checked it on odds calculator), and losing is not evidence for rigging, but I Have been recording my last 5 all in's, and I have lost all of them, and not only that, but they were all in's where I was the clear favorite(except for one, which was more half half).1st all in, AA vs KK preflop, I lost, 2nd all in, KK vs QQ preflop I lost, third all in I had JJ , he has AA, the flop comes, 48J,we end up going all in, he ends up hitting an ace on the turn. 4th all in was 50, 50ish, with me being the slight underdog, I ended up going all in with flush draw on the flop, and I ended up not getting it, and the last one was the 77 vs AK I just wrote about. It I do the math approximately, the chances of me losing those 5 all in's in a row is something like 1-(.2 times .2 times .12 times .6 times .02) which comes out to some insanely improbably number. Also, these numbers are not fabricated whatsoever, as I made it a note to record my last 5 all in attempts regardless of the results.

Despite this, I still do not think the site is rigged, but does anyone have any hard evidence so that I can be put to ease and just blame it all on extraordinarily bad luck?

I will continue to record my all in's until I reach around 50 sample size, and then I will look at my expected ev and actual winnings again, just for peace of mind.

I know ispokerrigged.com does rigging tests, and found that bodog has no evidence of rigging, but is it safe to assume that bovada is also safe since it is the same company?

I know I sound like a wacko, but after the past 5 all in's, I can't help but be suspicious. It is not like these all in's were coin flips, but rather hands where I completely dominated the villain,(except the flush draw hand)
5 in a row is really such a small sample size.. That happens every now and then.. One time I won, not top three but won 12 sitngos in a row. Then went on a 26 loss string of losses. I've had all kind of crazy cash game and tournament things happen that go both ways. Nostalgia is only remembering the good and not the bad. The mind often works the same in poker. For instance if you got lucky 5 times in a row you probably would think wow I'm running really good. You might find it strange but you would forget about it quickly. The point is for me variance has swung back and forth way farther then I was ever expecting but as long as you keep making the right moves and getting your money in good you will be a winner long term. On a side note I find the Sitngo's and Tournaments to be more legit. I play heads up Sitngo's too but I found the HU cash games to be a little fishy so I stopped playing them.

They released Zone 12 hours ago, and it's full of bugs. Do you really want them increasing the limits right away? Jeez you guys.

They said shortly, so I'd imagine as soon as the bugs get fixed. Maybe a few days or a week or two.

Just played two tables at once on zoom..Pretty fun. Still a little slow. When you "zoom" to a table you have to wait for a few seconds.

Really enjoying this zone poker. Never played this format before, hell of a time saver and a great way to get more hands in per hour. Sucks it's only 1 table per game limit, guess I'll just mix in a lower stake and also full ring in order to get 4 tables going at once.

If anyone that played the zoom tables can post approximately how many hands per hour they were getting that would be appreciated.

Yeah I'd like to know too. I keep forgetting to keep track. It's gotta be at least 220/hr for 6 max I'd imagine. Maybe even 250.
