Tribeca and the montone flop

Postby wreck27 » Thu Aug 10, 2006 8:55 pm

Is it just me or does anyone else notice more monotone flops at Tribeca than anywhere else. I see more pots taken down by a single pocket card flush than anywhere I've been playing.

When I get time this weekend I'm going to see if PT can confirm my suspicions.

I reccently started playing there myself, I'm amazed at some of the things that I've seen recently...(I was wondering if it was just me). I'm playing 6 max LHE there and the numbers on basically every player at the table are like heaven. Remarkably loose/passive calling stations, or loose/aggressive calling stations.

I've never seen so many people hitting some of the craziest draws guts shots, runner runner, etc. That they're betting/raising the whole way and catching.

I don't really have a big enough sample size yet but I will say AA/KK/QQ/AKs/AQs so far are all money losers for me in 6 max.

Just looking at my stats for 6 max for UB: 1 pair - "Won $ at SD" 61.19%
So far on Tribeca 1 Pair - "Won $ at SD" 26.92%
Granted a pair isn't a monster in 6 max but I'm not playing bottom pair and rarely will take middle pair to the SD...Talking either overpairs to the board, or top pair somehow getting FUBARED quite a bit by the time the river comes.

I'm usually not one to consider things to be out of the ordinary when it comes to cards, but so far on their site I've seen some wild things in the time I've been there.

The thing I notice the most about Tribeca is when you have say A5 vs AK allin preflop and A5 hits his 5.

I don't know if its just because you see so many allins preflop (like its a tournament or something) or if its really off.

Feels like it though.

I dont think Tribeca is purposely running an unfair game but I do think there is something wrong/different about their RNG. Which may be making it an unfair game when schooling is occuring. I'm still killing there so I don't think it's a huge disadvantage.

Three times last night I had sets busted by four cards to a flush on the board. Again I have not gone through my PT stats to verify that it is anymore than any other site but I don't remember seeing it as much at other sites. Also, they have crashed three times this week. I don't know if that would have any effect on the performance of their RNG.

I think it probably has more to do with the fact that calling stations are plentiful and will go to the river with anything and they're catching cards. It seems like a place where even a semi competent player like myself can clean up on....just waiting for the results to kick in :(

Speaking of flawed RNGs. Apparently Green Plastic actually believes that the flop changes depending on how many people see the flop.

In one of his videos, he folded something like ATs and the flop was all his suit. He said not to worry about that because it wouldve been a different flop if he had stayed in. He wasnt saying its rigged, just that th flop is different if there are 2 callers than it would be if there were 3. This would mean that the flop isnt determined until the betting action preflop is closed which cant possibly be true or it COULD easily be rigged.

Green plastic called with ATs, ok, flop him some junk. Green Plasitc folded ATs, ok, flop him what wouldve been the nuts if he had called. This cant possible be correct.
