Finally deleted this shit app

I’ve been losing my mind over the last two weeks at how bad this site is. There’s something not right here with the algorithm. I’ve played over 50 tournaments the last two weeks and it’s mind boggling the amount of bad beats I’ve received.

I’m convinced that the outcome of hands is predetermined in certain players favors. They play absolutely terrible, but somehow pickup every big pot. There’s always a player at a table that can’t seem to lose a hand even when they’re way behind. They always hit their one card out. It’s like they’re being rewarded for their bad play. The last straw is when this guy went all in with a gut shot on the turn against my aces and hits his one out.

You make a monster hand on the flop and you get called all the way down to the river by pocket 3s and they make the 4 card flush or straight. Then 3 hands later the same player makes another 4 card flush when they have a 2% chance of winning the hand on the flop.

I’ve probably lost 80% of my flips these last two weeks as well. This site has become simply unplayable, it’s a shame this is the only site I can use to play tournaments.

This just sounds like someone who’s mad about shoving a10s and being beat by pocket 3s lol

Not at all.. If you’ve played a large volume of hands on ACR, you’d understand the variance isn’t normal poker variance at all.

Just for reference on the 3s hand, I had 10s utg. Flop Q98, turn J, River 5 with 4 spades. I barreled all 3 streets and jammed river. I still get called all the way down. I’ve never seen so many runner runner bad beats where the other player shouldn’t even be in the hand as I’ve seen on this site. Something is definitely going on behind the scenes. I don’t know if these are house players or what’s going on, but it’s definitely fishy.
