Default Re: quite incredible

just remember im not that kind of player that loses bankroll after bankroll neither am i addicted to the game.. i just wonder why when u see cards at showdown and compare them to the current board.. chances of winnin that hand were maybe lower than 5 percent on turn... and its happenin all the time!.. for example how can a player call 2 strong bets preflop and on flop that costs almost his whole stack with AK when i have AA and he gets exactly 2 kings on turn and river?..i can accept these hands for sure but why is it happenin always within a short period of time?

i asked if i was paranoid facing all the bad beats within a couple of hours and sessions. maybe yes maybe not.. but can anyone of us- no matter if he has played at the WSOP final table for the 5th time, or an average online player- be 100% sure that the game isnt slithly rigged.. of course there are economical risks for the site.. i know.. but when u think of online casinos offering roulette and black jack would you say the same? the game cant be rigged the risks are too big? but wouldnt it be risky too if all the unskilled players realized that theyre hourly losing rate at a 1/2 holdem table is much higher than playin black jack with an optimized strategy? and if anyone like me is saying single hands seem to have magic rivers .. who cares.. as long as the game continues.. i dont say that online poker is cheating all the way..

only because online poker sites seem to cash out regularly and doesnt run away with the money doesnt include that the game software isnt able to detect anything in the game structure to deal an action hand to get the players excited from time to time. we, the players, say poker is a game of skill but of chance too, so we accept losing streaks as a matter of fact and we know there are several players that have played poker for a living and they went through the dark tunnel of a losing streak too in their lives. but again saying online poker cant be rigged because of the economical risks is just common sense. i even have no clue where all these sites are, maybe mediterranean sea, costa rica?..why should i say then the game cant be rigged only because i requested some cash outs succesfully?

the whole poker thing whether played at a casino with real cards or online is only based on common sense and experience
