I don't really believe it is rigged at all. I think it may be human nature to look for contrivance to explain away bad luck or bad decisions, etc. So instead of saying I had a run of bad cards in a live game or B&M room, we can now say it must be the code--the programmers were out to get me.
If you think about it, integrity is the single most important feature for these sites. If it were ever to be proven or strongly hinted at in the media that site X was juicing the code to produce desired results, then everyone would pull their money out and never play a single hand at that site ever again. So they have to maintain integrity. If it was happening, someone would have leaked it--disgruntled employee, hacker, etc..
Only the site owners really know, but I will say that I find alot more ppl seem to know that there Q7 will hit there strait if they call my all in with my AA.
I am not sure if its just cause you play 10 times more hands in less time then live in person games or what but the bad beats are ten times worse and more often online.
I know I was chasing alot of connected Suited straits last night to not hit anything. I would played all of them that I got for teh first part of the game and hit nothing. Then the one time I decide not to play it and folded 5,6 D the board hits 2,3,4 D.
I will have to admit that the Rigged part is easy to fall into but is it true who knows. As long as you play your cards the way they should be you will still come out ahead even if you have alot of players suckin out on you. Eventually they will go all in and you WILL take them out.
One thing I can't stand (and I have been guilty of it sometimes), is when ppl sit out in the sit and goes after winning large pots. I know I was playing one the other night and I had to sit out to get some sleep (it was 5:45am and I had to be at work soon). I figured I would just sit out and let the blinds eat me until I am out and not just leave the table. Well in the morning when I checked the computer I placed in teh money.
I have played with a few guys that will do this everytime they play and sit out until the antes come into play. Well to each there own really.
