New to the forum, life long poker player (I'm 55 years old), have a weekly game with some old friends that we've had going on for probably 20 years or more! About 3 or 4 years ago, after FINALLY breaking down and getting a I-Phone, I started playing online Poker, first WSOP and then Poker Heat. I found that WSOP was a losing proposition, no matter how well I played, I would always end up busting out and having to buy more chips. I probably played for about a year and then gave up, and found Poker Heat on Facebook and started playing there. The game play on Poker Heat and the graphics are best I have seen online, but there's a catch. There is NO FRIGGIN WAY their random number generators are legit. The incredible bad beats are just mind boggling! The things you have seen maybe 3 times in your entire life (quads being beat by a higher set of quads), are REGULAR happenings there. I know MANY long term players, and the longer you play, the longer you can go without busting out, but NOBODY has been able to win long term and keep their bankrolls intact. You are inevitably put in situations where you are in hands that you simply CANNOT fold, and then on the river, that one magic card to beat you comes up more often than not. It would be funny if not so tragic, I know people who have lost multiple THOUSANDS of dollars on this application, always thinking they can "beat the system", but inevitably, they always bust out and are gilded into buying more chips. The other horrible thing about this application is the number of robot players! They used to deny they existed, but in November of last year, they added a disclaimer to their front page admitting their existence! LMAO! Like we all didn't already know! What really strikes me as odd is that there is a website called "pissedconsumer" that has multiple posts about this fraudulent application, but not one mention of it here? Has Playtika got an injunction to stop this site from mentioning their crooked ways? This is just one excerpt from that consumer site, there are plenty more, and I couldn't agree with this guy any more. His description of their antics are 100% accurate, and having been playing there for over 3 years and being at one of their highest levels, I believe I have the experience to back it up. I just wanted to get some opinions from others here on this page. This is directly from pissed consumer website: https://playtika.pissedconsumer.com/...231406667.html

Poker Heat is the worst cheating poker application in history, followed very closely by WSOP! Oh, and they are BOTH owned by Playtika?

Coincidence? I think not. These criminals need to be prosecuted because the money they are stealing from players is in the MILLIONS of dollars! I know people who have wasted tens of thousands of dollars on this application, I am still playing but I quit paying a long time ago and now only play with free chips on the lower tables.

Why? Because it is rigged, plain and simple. All you have to do is play a few weeks and you will see the insanity of their cheating patterns! Their "random number generator" is anything but random, and the incredible bad beats happen constantly.

I have played poker in real life, in many venues, including casinos, and in 40 years of playing, I've seen a set of quads get beat by a higher set of quads maybe 3 times. On Poker Heat, I saw it TWICE IN ONE DAY and that is the honest to God's truth! Then, how many times do you see the same 3 cards on the flop in real life? Not very often, but on Poker Heat, it happens multiple times a day!

Why? Because when you have three of the same cards on the flop, and then you have two, three or four people in the same hand with a pocket pair, what do you have? MAX CARNAGE! Everyone goes all in and 4 out of the 5 people lose everything!

It's all rigged, it's all a scam and these sons of biatches need to get sued and put out of business! Here's the other funny thing, as soon as you buy a chip package, your luck MAGICALLY changes, but only for a short time. You'll win a few big hands, but eventually, you will start getting the bad beats like everyone else, UNTIL you buy chips again. It is so blatantly obvious it's not even funny.

Then they have these "representatives" that are assigned to the "VIPS", or people who have spent tons of money, and you can complain to them and they will lie and deflect as they are trained to do, and throw you little bones now and then (free chips), but they also have the power to TURN OFF the "BAD LUCK" on your account, but only long enough for you to win some of your money back, but inevitably, you will go back to losing like everyone else, because you will be put into a position with big hands that you simply cannot fold, but then somebody ALWAYS kills you on the river! Then there are the ROBOTS all over the place, more pervasive on the higher stakes tables, but they are easy to spot because of the way they bet, and the amounts they bet, but almost impossible to beat. They will go all in with nothing and catch that magic river card more often than not, and steal all of your chips, it's so blatantly obvious the cheating that goes on, frankly, I'm shocked they've gotten away with it this long! There needs to be a class action lawsuit against this organized criminal activity because it CANNOT be legal.

Any 3rd party "audit" of their "random number generator" would find out in 2 seconds how NOT RANDOM it really is, and how it's all designed to produce bad beats and trick people into spending more money. Some day, I am hoping a class action suit will be filed so a lot of us long term players, who have spent THOUSANDS of dollars, can get some of our money back. Oh, and the ridiculous rake? 25% on a site that pays out nothing?

Another joke! Trust me, I am not just a disgruntled player, I've been on Poker Heat for 3 years and quit paying for chips about a year ago and don't play on the higher stakes tables any more, but I know some people that still do, because the game play really is the best out there, but I'm not going to have some company screw me day in and day out and steal my hard earned money.

It's time for VIP's on Poker Heat to take a stand, I'm actually thinking about contacting one of the richer "famous" poker players to see if they could help us finance this lawsuit.
