Strange behaviour at Americas Cardroom, feels impossible to win there
Was playing PLO 0.50/1 yesterday on ACR and observed some strange behaviour on a couple of tables I was on.
On one table there were players who never played against each other but would otherwise raise me almost every hand and get lucky when I was playing tight and playing mostly premium hands.
One particular instance I had AAKQ double suited and I ended up all in pre-flop against KJ26 rainbow. And of course I lose to J 6 6 flopped full house.
One buy in and several hands later I get AA56, again double suited. And again end up all in against the same player who now has 2389, and again I lose to a low flush.
These aren't the lowest stakes either, it's 0.50/1. It seems this player knows which cards are coming or they're psychic, cos nothing else makes sense!
I've now had about 20 bad beats on ACR in just the space of a week, all absolutely bizarre plays like this.
Please convince me it's just variance and not some shady BS here

stop playing PLO if ur gonna complain about bad beats lol
So your opponent plays terribly and gets lucky and you jump straight to "Guy is a superuser playing PLO100."
Guys my point is why did this terrible player only do that against me and nobody else at the table? He was folding every other hand when someone else would raise, but would go all in against me with hands like that... Do you see how that can look like collusion amongst the players at that table except me?
A plague upon all you online poker defenders.
