I don't believe that online poker is rigged, but I have heard more people complain about poker stars than any other site. This includes on threads and talking to people at live games. Some of the posters on the Dan Druff forum was saying something about how flops hit a lot more hands shorthanded on PS. I know when I play short on PP this isn't the case a lot of the time. With so many people complaining there might be something to it.

Yeah, something like herd mentality and selective memory.

Looks to me like he lost the least possible on these beats.

I've haven't played hundred of thousands of hands but weird beats happen all the time on the two sites I frequent regularly, Party and Stars. When these things happen, usually all in a row, I get rather frustrated but I've been on both sides of things. I've runner, runnered someone when they checked top set on the flop and I've been runner runner flushed too many times to imagine especially short handed (which I usually play).

I've also been frustrated by plays at the casino, and I've seen weird things at the casino. At the casino I've seen my top set versus a guys middle set lose to a sad sucker straight, I've seen a hand with AA vs QQ, vs JJ vs 88 vs 55 vs 1010 at the casino. My friend was a victim of AA vs QQ vs JJ vs AK (hits broadway on the river) at a live Tunica tourney. A guy told me, some guy rivered broadway versus A10, 3 sets at 20/40 in Tunica, runner runner capped the whole way. Things happen live as well. So due to luck, things happen in poker once in a while.

Have you watched many MTT tourneys on stars? Honestly I can predict flops around 40% of the time just by looking at 2 persons hole cards. Honestly, the action all-in flops sometimes are so rediculous it's amazing . I've also repeatedly guessed when a backdoor flush will hit when 2 people are allin. I don't know if it's the number generator or luck, but sometimes it's just weird. I haven't frequently watched the late game party tournies, but I don't know if people have seen similar results. I doubt it's fixed but maybe there number generator, it's as random as it could be....I don't know, I still play, I still win, I still have fun.....Tim is obviously frustrated by Stars right now, I've been frustrated before, I've taken some time off, maybe that's just what he needs.

I'm officially saying that this thread belongs in the zoo after that last post. Please, all rational posters, resist the urge to tell this guy why he is wrong. I beg of you. Moderator, please move this post.

Best Regards,

Matt

Yeah, playing super solid is unimpressive. LAGs is where it's at.
