Today was my last day ever playing on this site. I started a month ago and it is obvious to anyone who plays this site that this game is designed to screw anyone who buys chips to play " free online poker". If you play with free chips then you play small games that never seem to get you anywhere and are very boring. I also find it very strange that the top 500 players never chat and always seem to wind up winning incredible hands on the river. If anyone from Replay Poker reads this do you wonder why nobody recommends your site to anyone?? You are welcome for my money but your site is rigged no matter what you say.

Poker can be a hard game and often losing goes faster than winning. Youâve played 1 month on the site. I play here for many years, but played the first 12 months on the low stake tables and often i played 1K SnGs, when i won 3K on the day i was happy with it. When i watched a high stake table the small blind was my total bankroll, the first year never thought i was going to play there.
Players can build their bankroll starting with free chips. Replay Poker gives out a lot of free chips (daily bonus, free chips added to prize pools like the bankroll builder, new free chips when you are broke, daily freerolls, promotions, leaderboards)
And i really not understand the comments about buying chips. Why wouldnât players buy chips? I not believe players buy chips only to go up in ranking. If you buy chips you play the poker games with these chips, some players not like to play the low stake games, they buy chips and start at the medium or high stake tables or play the higher buy-in tournaments. Nothing wrong with that.
With a higher buy-in (ring games or tournaments) you can win more, but also lose more. It is a choise players can make.
And some players buy chips to support the site and of course Replay Poker is happy with that, it keeps the site free for all members (not forget Replay Poker can not pay the bills with play chips)
In this topic i heard so many different comments. Such as⌠I buy chips and lose to buy more chips⌠I not buy chips and lose so i must buy chips⌠I lose from lower ranked players⌠I lose from high ranked playersâŚ
Guess it is the human nature to search an explanation for losing, or to search for an explanation why you lose and why another player wins (with âgoodâ or with âbadâ cards)
And no chat between the top 500 players? Perhaps less chat than at the low stake tables, but i can assure you most of them can type and there is enough chat there.
Of course ranking lists are important, always fun to compare your skills and results with your opponents. There are offered several top lists and leaderboards for tournaments and promotions, and Replay Poker keeps working to improve them.
The total ranking is now based on the total amount of chips a player has, in future it will be based on skills and result.
Replay Poker works with a small team, all improvements takes time and a lot of work. Many new improvements and new features are on the-to-do list and is planned. And many improvements / new features are realezed already. Still lots to do, pitty a day only have 24 hours.
When you compare the site 1 year ago and now, the regular players know how many improvements, new features and adjustments are made this year.
Greetings Happiness.
Iâm so glad the wife, girlfriend or programer has replied and given such great insight about how things are getting better with the small team they have. I believe any improvement you make will be one that figures out how to screw people more than you already have. Good luck with that.
âIâm so glad the wife, girlfriend or programer has repliedâ
You mean me? If so, you proved my point, you can make your own story about everything.
Iâm just a regular player for many years and the last couple of years moderator. The reason i became a moderator is because i like playing on ReplayPoker, i love it to play online with Replay Poker friends, i like to chat during the game. I like Replay Poker and as moderator i can help the site and the players if possible. Thatâs all:)

Ronvisser is exactly correct, free chips equal a lot of players calling with junk which dramatically increases the odds of bingo hits and greatly decreases the chances of quality hands winning. Those crazy plays would not happen with real money because players would not call with junk when it cost real money. Thatâs just free chip play. It is also those bingo calls and poor play that puts chips in good players stack most of the time, not alwaysâŚsometimes they bingo on you but more often quality plays wins. In the long run good play wins over bingo players. If you donât think so, check of rank of bingo players when they donk ya. They rarely have very many chips in there account. Just my 2 cents⌠plazpoker
You say itâs random but players know if they chance to the river they have better odds of winning here. I play real table games and your programs are not fair at all. This site has more flushes than any other one. People will chance every one down. Need to get this site back to a real playing game!
Way too long. no-one care read this. Let alone understand.
RIGGED! As simple as that. Stacked hands with designated winning seats. This is not news. It is a simple fact. Rigged for moderators. Know how I can tell? Just read what they say. How they speak. Not too bright but they have lots of chips. This site is as rigged as all the others. High and mighty moderators extolling the virtues of a rigged site. Now, that is a new one. Even I have to laugh at that. I get my kicks other ways. And, I love my dog. I love my wive. I love my neighbors. I do not love this site. I feel sorry for you who have expressed so much love for this site. Try living a real life. And, if you want to win here, donât play. Simple as that.
Moderators just regular players as yourself, anyone can be a mod.
tons of other sites out there. IMHO I start to feel this one may be not so unbiased. âfairâ well not so sure. questionable if one should ever toss âreal moneyâ at buying chips.
I got a message from Paul Gould stating that this site would NEVER interrupt a game and force fold a winning hand in favor or another player. And, what do you know but I was force folded out of a winning hand and the winnings went to the chosen one at the table. He also stated that nobody would moderate and throw a game. Once again, he favored a well known bingo player for a whole hour to strip chips from the innocent ones. Those of you who play Omaha know what I am talking about. So, I have quit playing here for, forever.
I remember back a while ago when Paul Gould stated that this site would try to be âmore transparentâ (like the osama administration here in the good old USA). We all know what that means.
In keeping with your ramblings Paul, why donât you explain how all the hands are canned? Why donât you explain how the algorithms you so proudly tout are used for distributing the canned hands based upon who is seated at the tables? Why donât you admit that a site administrator can moderate a hand and manipulate a playerâs bets and options? That would be a good start. Then, the players can decide whether or not they play at this site. Or, better yet, why donât you just design a fair site? You stated that as your objective in your message to me. So, do it!
As I said before, I am a successful programmer analyst. I know how you cheat and how you rig hands.
I have had it with your cheating, lying ways (like in the words of a good old American Country, Western song).
Good luck to the innocent players. I hope someday you can be the chosen one. But, remember this, donât do anything stupid like paying for chips. That would be foolish. Keep your money in your pockets and, maybe Paul Gould will have to go and get a real job.
WHOA! Is this what I get for the message I posted? An invite to participate in the virus infected site getsatisfaction.com. How dare you send me an infected message! Go âFâ yourslef Paul Gould. And, quit distributing my e-mail address to cyber thugs.
Just joined won often until you reach high rankings. Now usually I lose while playing the same way. I think itâs designed to make the buy chips. It is true that the site you must finance but pimp your matches isnât right. Iâd rather pay a subscription but playing without cheats!!

Yes, win on low stake much more easy⌠I thought thats obvious for all⌠as usually better players at high. You should adopt play stile to high stake players. X lose and Y win or Y lose and X win, make one or the other win, just not make any sense⌠We are in the same shoe, you know⌠No bot players in this site take your chipsâŚ
Would you say that more scrap of most software level will penalize? I personally donât find it right. Real games with the cards in hand certain combinations are rare here are frequent and the river almost always changes the winner, too often ⌠Hello
âmore scrap of most software level will penalize?â what the heck does that mean?
ââriver almost always changes the winnerââ
In real life you not play as much hand as here. In real life players wont hold as much to wait for outs as here. Please donât mix up real life unless you count the variables % to make your count fair.
i have the same questionâhow can 3 KINGS get beat by a pair of KINGS ??? this just happened, game sucks!!!
Iâm betting you were playing Omaha, not Poker. In omaha an inexperienced player who doesnt know the rules may think he has trips, when in fact he doesnât.
I donât believe the game is âriggedâ to favor any one person or class of people over another. I do believe the algorithm used is a bit clunky. It seems to work on a system that delivers high cards to low hole cards and vice-versa almost on a timed basis. I see this in Omaha hi/lo constantly. I see players go along for dozens of hands having their high or low busted on the board. Instead they will get some mid-level mix that they can try to draw to and hope for the best. Then rather suddenly they will have a run where they hit their high or low with consistency. This will last through an hour or two of play and then it is back to low hitting high and high hitting low for the next 2,3 or 4 days. It appears to operate the same for everyone. Then add in poor play and the tendency to bet recklessly with play chips and things can become a bit frustrating.
