This happened last night at UB in a $10 multi-table.

I had not played a single hand for over 3 rounds, since the very start of the tourney, and finally get a hand to come in with, JJ on the button, 1 limper to me, I make a pot size bet. Only the limper calls. Flop comes down J34 rainbow. The limper checks, I bet the pot, limper moves all-in, I call. My stack was only slightly larger than his.
I show my JJ and he has 92s. Needless to say he catches the runner-runner small straight leaving me with 90 chips.

Ok, I fight my way back for over about an hour and a half, not too far below average stack size and get ATs in MP, Folded to me, I bet the pot, only the BB calls. Flop comes AAK. The BB bets, I raise with a pot size bet, BB re-raises me all-in, I call. BB shows A3o. You guessed it again, turn is a 3 and river is a blank.

Oh well, there's always the next one.

Jim

I stopped playing on UB becouse of the hugh ratio of pure crap coming in. I mean hugh dogs getting there time after time. I used to call it getting "ub'd". I was not alone in seeing this, many players have commented to me in my time there about all the long shots coming in at a large%. I have watched it happen to other players. Its too bad, becouse they have the best looking software out there. But the bottom line is, they are not to be trusted. Just like a fixed % at video poker, whats stopping them from using programs for there house players to win with? And please dont even think of telling me that they dont have people playing for the house. Whos "regulating" them??? No one, its a cash cow, and as long as people come there they will continue to be that way. Fuck UB, they cheat you blind.
