If it doesn't happen at least once a day it means you are not playing enough imo.
C'mon you guys. They are all "rigged"! You do not have to have three heads to see the whole picture.
It's all about the rake!
Online poker rooms are made to make profit for their owners. They suck out that rake but keep as many people playing as possible - that's why you get so many bad beats - otherwise so called "fish" or "donks" will be outta the game in no time and will not come back. They keep good players on the leash.
Why do you think they came up with this "Turbo" tourneys? - to turn more tables! You pay fixed rake so they can't allow you to waste their precious time by taking too long to finish - more tables played - more money in their pocket. And what is this TURBO stuff!? It's pure gambling because the blinds are so high that you don't have a choice but to go all-in all the time. That's no poker - that's like giving a dealer you money and telling him to pull a card for you - where is skill in that?
If its rigged then quit? Ok you can joke about, but if you're gonna write serious posts on how poker is rigged then why are you still playing?!?!?

+ 1
Btw has anyone ever thought of how hard it must be to rig 24000 tables? Like come on. First u need to identify fish and grinders and good players. Then you have to change the card that comes next so that a certain person sucks out. I mean come on! No bot is intelligent enough to do that. And stars would risk there whole business for and extra $10 million a year? Nope, they earn billions and to them $10million is nothing.

Ohh.. I finally see the big picture. The have written an algorithm that not only jeopardizes their entire business, but also keeps track of how many times each and every player suck out. This algorithm also notices who is "good" and who is "bad" and let the bad ones suck out a little more often.
So now we come to the conclusion that everyone sucks out just about an equal amount of times. Wait, wait.. What am I saying here.. Then it's not rigged.. Then it's random and it evens out. Then it makes no sense to write that super complicated algorithm.

omg freaky!! we think the same
why are you still playing?!?!?
Ha-ha!!! Why so much anger? And why shouldn't I be playing? - I ain't the one who's complaining. I play for fun my friend - I like the game - but I ain't trying to make a living outta it(especially doing online poker).

I know it's rigged
I just keep playing, hoping that i will have riggedness on my side that day.
Oh and losing A9 vs AQ i Bulletproof proof that something fishy is going on imo!
I don't consider myself unlucky, i consider myself rigged.
I have had a few nice weeks with the rig being on my opponents side, but lately i've been kinda rigged both on stars and fulltilt.
I hope the rig will change soon
Btw has anyone ever thought of how hard it must be to rig 24000 tables
ROFL! You've heard of computers? You really think 24000 is a BIG number?
And stars would risk there whole business for and extra $10 million a year? Nope, they earn billions and to them $10million is nothing.
They ain't risking nothing by keeping bad players in the game - by keeping you (an excellent player I assume) a company - so the tables are always full and busy and that rake keeps coming steadily all year around.
Good luck!

Thats complainin IMO.
Actually, I saw one guy beat AA twice, first he hit his Gutshot, then he hit a set with 88. Poker must be rigged then.

That was just an example. That's why I DON"T play Turbo!
Well why are you complaining about them, Everyone who plays them is given the choice to or not to play them, its not like the site is forcing them to play em is it? And you can play these profitably if you're a good player, its not 100% luck like you make it out to be.

I ain't complaining bro! Read the first post in this tread. I just expressed my opinion about online poker in general. I have great time playing it but like I said b4 because I like the game.
Of course no one is forced to play - but online poker made the game easily accessible for way bigger crowd than the live one. And if you like poker but do not have casinos nearby or someone running cash games what do you do? - you play online. So it's all about how you look at it.

Yes but to rig 24k tables with a program that identifies bad players who are likely to bust all there monies and change the next cards that come on 24k tables. And then if they did this how would they pass tests from independant companies. Just hide this big software machine?
And there risking there business and the billions of $$$ they make from it every second.
