Poker Sites with the Worst Rivers?

Wanted to get folks' opinions on which poker sites have the most "miracle" river cards. I've heard different opinions and I was wondering if there was a concensus. (I'm hoping this doesn't get the "rigged" theories going but I know some believe there are different randomizer programs used. Some good, some flawed.)

I'll start. I've played 5 sites so far & here are my top 3 worst:

1. Full Tilt Poker (by far)

2. Party Poker
3. Ultimate Bet

I also play at Titan & PokerStars, which seem normal to me. Share your opinion!
 

PokerStarsPokerStars is one of the best sites to play online poker. They accept all US players & you can get a 100% up to $50 bonus.

TPTitan Poker are the top poker site on the iPoker network. Use the bonus code CC500 to get a 150% up to $500 Bonus.

Titan seems to have those miracle river cards that kill me ALL the time. Sometimes even runner runner miracle cards. I play cautiously when I'm playing on Titan.

It isn't the sites.. the question should be asked.. which site has the most loose aggresive players on it.

I don't feel I have a large enough sample size of hands over all the sites I've played on to make any fair comment.

I would guess that the sites with the worse rivers also have the weakest players.

Think about it. If you're rivered it means you had the best hand. Therefore your opponent went to the river with the weakest hand. Therefore you are better than your opponent. Unfortunately a lot of players spend way too much to find that out!

By far ... Titan and Ultimate Bet. Never have I been rivered so many times, particularly by people chasing flushes (a Titan specialty) and hitting miracle second pairs (Ultimatebet) to knock me out. The same things happened to me when I played Noble.

The DREADED RIVER CARD..........It must be me..........I'M the RIVER KING OF BAD BEATS............Whether it is live action, or online poker seems like whatever the other player needs they receive on the RIVER. KK QQ AA seems to get SNAPPED on me over 90% of the time...............Rock

Poker.com BY A LAND SLIDE!!! In fact just before I cashed out form P.com I had come to expect my draws to bust the 2pr every time.

Which is it, Bud? Rigged or not? You sound confused.
