Agressiveness - Rev 2.0

First of all .... WOW ! Thanks to all of you for responding to my post. I must say that so far, I think this site's software play's very fair. Certainly early on, there's loose play and some BB's. But as some of you stated, the deeper it gets the better the play and the more often the best hand wins. I've taken fewer BB's here in 3 weeks than I would at Pokerstars in a day. Even in the big tourney's there like the $1.5MM or the $500K, BB's are the norm. I finally came to believe that the site would reward the heavy hitters and leave the so-called "recreational players" out in the cold. For those of you interested, here's the hand that broke the camel's back there. I'm very deep in the nightly $ 70K. There's 16 of us left (out of around 2400 that night). I'm in the small blind with KK and it's folded around to me. I raise thinking once again, no pay-off with a monster. The BB calls and the flop comes KKA. I check and he bets. I just call. The turn is an A. I check again and he bets. I just call. He's doing fine I'm thinking but I also become suspicious and just knew I was being set-up by the site but couldn't get away from the hand. I check, he bets and I push all-in. He calls of course, catches the 3rd A on the river and knocks me out, quads against quads. I will probably never get over that hand but it was enough to get me to quit that site and try something new.

Interesting! So, PS sets up the small fish and rewards the big fish? With a million hands a minute, this is undoubtably written into the software and the big fish know but won't tell us?
What you are saying COULD happen naturally.
I think you just have to believe that it was a random event that just happened. If you believe the sites are slanted, you'll never have any fun.
