First of all, please read everything before commenting; I’ll lay it all out below. For six months, I’ve been actively playing freerolls on GGPoker, yet I can’t seem to make a single final table. It’s always the same story: when the field narrows to 40 players, the river card always kills my hand. It’s the same with Spin & Go games—even with a 3–5% chance of winning, the river card hits for my opponent, often multiple times. This represents the last $15 I lost trying to recoup money lost in other tournaments, since Spins seemed like an easy way out. I tried playing plenty of $1 Bounty Hunter tournaments, but the result was the same: I never manage more than 4 or 5 knockouts, and to achieve even that, I have to burn through at least 3 or 4 $1 buy-ins—I never get a good start. All of this started happening after they reinstated players who had previously been banned for cheating; GGPoker has become awful again. From now on, I’m sticking strictly to CardsChat tournaments and the daily freeroll, and I refuse to participate in tournaments from any other communities.
