True Fact: over 90 of 100 poker players are lifetime losers. Although, no, the game is not rigged, statistics like this are a bit daunting to say the least. If you feel you are in the "over 90" group, retiring might be the best option. (I, of course, hope you reconsider [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img])

gl in whatever you do and wherever you go, just remember we're always willing to welcome back a retiree to the tables. Especially one who thinks the game is rigged.

Default I agree 100%

Poker is rigged in both casino and online games. The house takes a percentage known as a rake from each pot played. This is money that goes to the house not back to the players. This gives the house an edge in a game in which they have zero risk; this is a very good deal for them. As a player, one must be able to win enough from the game to make up for this rake and show a profit. If a player is unable to show a profit, eventually the rake will beat him and destroy his bankroll.


Good luck,

Fitz
