sites is it fair play or a con

hi there dont want to bore people with bad beats just want to know why so many people fish on line could anyone tell me why they wont fold when they have nothing on the flop only to make a hand on the river,it seems to me that these poker sites make action by tempting us to play these impossible draws.my point is are these sites rigged im sure these ? have ben asked b4 and i also have had yhe response that they have so more hands per hour but my point is the hands what actually come out seem very unrealistic to a live game does anyone else feel robbed on the sites and which sites should we avoid

There arnt any sites you should avoid, if you think online poker is rigged then you will find the same thing happening on every site.
Some people think its rigged and some people dont, i myself dont know. My advice is, if you think it is rigged then dont play.

To take out the fish, you have to make a bet large enough to chase them away, sorry, but checking and min-raising will just keep fish in chasing thier runner runner for the draw or keep them in to chase down the only ace they have in thier hand, if you spot a fish, always raise 3-4xBB.
You have to be really aggressive with the fish and donkeys.

There are endless reasons for what seems to be endless bad beats, especially when playing cash games online. Bad players, good players, bots, software programs, collusion, deep pockets that could care less, home and work distractions, 100 hands per hour, etc. Stick to tourneys spike a couple of wins or final tables a year, and hope you win enough to show a profit. Cash games online just crunching numbers. I read that just 12% of players that play cash show a profit, and that list of players keep changing. If you made it to a final table in a million tourney or won one, you would be in good shape.
Poker sites not rigged and are spending millions to detect and stop cheating software players are using.
