I hear someone say that online poker is rigged. LOL! There is no basis for that at all...and no proof of it whatsoever. You want to say it is rigged? Prove it with hand histories etc.. not blind accusations. Why would a poker site rig anything? They have no vested interest in who wins ANY given pot or tourney. They make money by hosting the games. Why would they do ANYTHING that would destroy their business? My advice to ANYONE who thinks online poker is rigged in any way... DON'T PLAY! If you think it is rigged and play anyway....play money or real money... who is the fool?

Thanks to those who showed up today.

Unfortunately we had a ton of people sitting out and it screwed up the game, but I'll try to curb that from now on.

For all future games, if you register and sit out, I will remove you from the poker club.

Please only register if you plan to play.

Very useful information.
Muchas Gracias.

lol they do it to maximize profit, which is done every day in buissness everywhere in the world, especially when no regulation is involved ... Bush jr. cut regulation on wall street and look what happened, the F'ers purposly took as much as they could, running companies into the ground and almost the entire country... knowing exactly what they were doing and what could happen from it.

I imagine the sites know they are fueled by people w gambling addicitions and people who get bored and deposit 20$ at a time, off and on ... so they design a system to appease these people.

the people that dont understand this, dont know anything about buissness, look into the stock market, people run companies into the ground everyday to make money, when it folds u know what they do?... they make another company, lol

That argument thrown out is retarded. Its not my burden to prove the sites are on the up and up, they want me to give them my money, thats on them...

go give your money to offshore book, win a couple of big scores and see what happens... u get banned... but why? the book has no investment in winning and losing, they make money on the vig/juice 10%, people win and lose, it all evens out. Thats built into the buissness plan... HA!

Im sure there have been people who have made money playing online poker in a long run... Thoses people went on a heater, then got sponsorship to play for free or have figured out the system and molded a game to grind out some $, ie multi tabling, math programs, trackers, etc (thats not really poker, thats more like being a good penny stock trader).

Thats what most people are saying when they call the sites "Rigged"

[AKAworceracs]

and I do agree with ringo and eejit, the sites want the money to stay on the sites, and really the only way to combat cheating and make the game completly fair is to just set up situations w pre determined outcomes and spread those out evenly to the players ...

I think people use to make money on multi tableing, etc, but I think the sites curved it...

just like how the books use to allow you to bet on say The Blues -1.5 and parlay it with the over, cuz common sense would say that if the Blues won by 2 it would likely go over... they dont allow you to do that anymore
