online poker just makes no sense to me. I dont go near it. technically, its all just random, so it should be fairly similar to live, yet the hand values are completely different. Trips are close to a lock live, yet online you have to pray to boat up cuz on the turn or river BS will come. I find online poker rewards the people that blindly chase with terrible odds and then they suck out on the guy protecting his flopped beauty. Theres a dramatic shift in the tide of each hand from the flop to the river. I'm convinced it's just to get more money passing through the rake, because it happens alllll the time. not random at all.
