Default Prima Poker Is Rigged (Real Question Too)

Clearing the $50 deposit bonus at bet365, I managed to somehow lose over $150 in pots due to river beats most of which were 2-4 outers. When all was said and done after my 250 hands, I was down $25 AFTER the $50 bonus. Enjoy!

Now, since I've done my 250 hands, what happens with the monthly bonus...should I email bet365 now and get my $50 or wait till I have 500 and get the whole $150....or do I need 750 hands for that?

Maybe you should consider moving down in limits...I don't think Prima would be rigged.

One thing I don't understand with all these "XXXX is rigged" posts is: Why would a pokersite want to rig anything? Apart from the risk of total ruin if it somehow leaked, what is there to gain?

The idea behind the whole rigged theory is that if they cause 2 or more people to think they have a "winning" hand, there will be more action at the table, which translates into more rake.

I don't buy that theory one bit though.

Somewhere in their blurg they state you should request the $50 and then go on. Difficult to ask for $150 at a time. I finished the $50-e-mailed them-waited until I received the $50 and then completed , requested and received the $100.

Probably overkill.

P.S. At the point I hit 758 raked hands for the month I then requested the $100. 250 + 500--2 bonuses.

Ok, I guess I didn't make it clear enough that it was sarcastic. Just venting some frustration...

So you do need 750 raked hands to clear the full $150 and not just 500?

You only need mention the word "rigged" and people act like you kicked their momma in the taco.

There should be a big sign on the top of every online poker player's monitor that says two things:

1. Even idiots can get lucky for hours at a time.

2. It's a seven card game, not two. Or five.

Add up your stats at the end of every month. If you're ahead, you're doing better than most. If you're behind, you're doing something wrong.
