You are a funny guy. I like posts like these. Keep those conspiracy theories coming.

I even heard from that guy, who knows a guy, somewhere, that online poker is rigged...

Thanks for all the remarks, sorry for the post, I think it was more of a rant than anything. The villian has broken me on Kings twice now, so I'm just on tilt. Sorry about the crappy post, I hope to become a better twoplustwoer.

Its pretty rare for this situation to happen but completly normal. i have flopped quads 2 times tonight on Poker Stars myself, but that aside, how well do u know the person ? it is possible for it to be set up dont put the entire idea out of your head i have a friend that is capable of such dealings without being noticed. but, its probably not and just a bad beat.

Are you sure that villain wasn't a bot?

Online ive flopped 4 kind a few times. It happened against me last night luckly i only lost 20bb. The only thing that looks dodgey is him betting his 4 kind u chk let the guy draw as much as he can. Also depends on strength of bet % to pot on flop. something smells fishy there. could have been freak. but lags always chk boss hands.

Canterbury 8/16

villian has AA
villian 2 has KK
flop AK7
turn 3
river K

Villian got set up to the tune of $19,800 and I only got $2,000 table share. Brutal.

The hand just seemed too set up, because WHO THE HELL FLOPS 4 of a kind?

I have, both live and online.
Long story short. Unless you have some kind of proof you can't say a word. From now on watch the deal, but what it looks like is that you just had a second best hand, which we all have before. Especially the way you described the way the villian played the hand, he didn't move in or anything. You did. He was just trying to get value with his quads and keep you in the hand. If he knew you had Ks full and it was a setup he probably would've just pushed at some point knowing you had to call. Rather, when you pusheed he probably wanted to do cartwheels. Let it go for now and ALWAYS watch the deal in a home game.

Good luck,
Matt
