Yes, this can happen in theory, especially in free tournaments so that players buy more quickly, because of this, the one with the most chips wins, but that's just theory. In practice, this may also happen, but it doesn't always work that way you're just too focused on it, so you only see moments like this

I think its pretty silly, and its probably a sample size issue.

If Stars was rigged it would be quickly outed by someone with a HUD and millions of hands.

They have no incentive to cheat and they would be caught quickly.

Poker is not rigged, the earth is not flat, and you should not open limp with sitters.

Dude, I think your analysis was very hasty based on nothing, you should focus more on poker mathematics, especially EV+ and pot odds.

I think to test your theory you should make sure to always play in those 3 positions....
and/or make sure to be the one with the most chips, ......problem solved😎👍

I agree with you that if you go all in against someone who has more chips than you close to the first prizes you will surely lose. salutes

I think it's coincidental. I don't think poker rooms are rigged.

It's better to focus on improving your game or studying poker stats, which is much more likely to earn you more money in poker.

I didn't notice such regularities, and I think it's just a coincidence. Although, if you manage to make money from it, it will be cool :)

Hello, I was seeing that on PokerStars in free tournaments or on satellites, after playing many times, I saw a probability of winning when the blind turn approaches or during the big and small blinds. One of the three hands is always a winner regardless of the cards. Another probability that I discovered is when you go all in against a player who has many more chips than you, the probability of winning is always the player with the most chips, almost always on the last card. What do you think
I think the only good things that are remaining in pokerstars are: nice visuals at the tables, available (albeit not always clever) support, fast withdrawals, good every day Challenges to get $0.50 PowerPath tickets, the ability to participate with PowerPath tickets in Sunday Storm ($11 face value) and SundayMillion ($109 face value), free spin of the day in their casino and the ability to place bets in their betting office. Their satellites are just awful. Their loyalty program is also terrible. And yes, short stacks lose much more often at PokerStars than at other poker rooms (my personal experience). I played at PokerStars for over 15 years, but I left to another poker room and I'm very glad I did. :unsure:

Yep, it’s all so random that I think you can grind all day long, get them in good and lose multiple pots to weaker hands. It’s the nature of the game.

I think you've realized something very good. However, if you play the game for a longer period of time, that theory may disappear. I hope that when it disappears, you will have found a more reliable theory.

that's what those with high stakes think, because they always lose versus shorts. but forget that they made that stack by eliminating sorts
