Default Free $$$ goes to waste

I haven't played at PP in awhile only to recieve an email saying I had a free $50 on my account.... at 3 am when I was completely wasted. After an hour of trying to play $200 SNG's with my $50 I finally got into a live game where I dumped all my cash in under 15 mins. PP is rigged.

dont think its rigged
you were playing way over your limit. You have to remember to not take your full bankroll to a table - you need to be able to cover getting busted out

also - dont play when your drunk. 90% of the time i lose my cash ive either been drunk or hungover

Playing drunk is never smart. But, I played at PP for 7 months and felt like it was rigged. I quickly switched to PS and feel the game is legit. Never questions its honesty.

I've heard the rigged theory and would certainly like to fall back on it sometimes, but the question I can't answer is, what's in it for party poker?? They make their money from the rake. Why would they care who wins??

I've heard a lot of people talk about party poker being rigged also and I have had some days where I lost money there and thought the same thing. But I agree with Bilz, what is in it for party poker? What do they care I lose 100 bucks to JoeShmoe44 because they get their rake reguardless of who wins and who loses so it doesnt make sense for them to rig it.

i also feel like pp is rigged too many times you see mediocre hands catching on the flop i saw this one guy win 3 hands where he had 2 cards lower then a ten not suited and not connected catch two pair or trips and he beat big pocket pairs all the time

When playing drunk, you can only expect to lose money.
