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

Here are my slightly more in depth thoughts....

I know a few people who work in the industry. As in for the sites. And I know for A FACT (Ive been shown) that older sites are blatently rigged. Jetset, PokerHost, those kind of sites. So are most of the old casinos. winnings not being paid, %'s changed.

But, the point in question here is Stars. Is Stars rigged?

Yes. But not much. I fully believe that lower raked table are not, for these is no point. Change your game list to show all full tables, and see how many there are. They are making millions (literally) off the rake.

However as you go up things change. I took stats on Chris Moneymaker in our session. Which ended when he ****ed me. He was either running hotter THAN THE SUN, or something was up.

Hand history is similar (exact) to this.

Me (BB) - AK diamonds.
Moneymaker (Button) - xx

Preflop - $5/$10 blinds. Both sat with around $2k.

Folds to moneymaker. He raised to $35. SB Folds. I raise to $105.

Moneymaker reraises to $275. I call.

Flop A J 6. I bet $400. He shoves. I call.

I show my AK. He shows.... J6.

Turn 2 River 4.

Yes this is only one hand. But my point is, its a $4,000+ hand. And I believe to this day I played the hand perfectly. This is not a cooler. It wasnt AA JJJ. Or A K J 6 6 on the board. Its just the only flop I go broke on.

Go figure that out
