I am pretty new to online poker and the only site I have really played on is bodog. I have been frustrated with the frequency of suck outs lately. Sick suck outs, one day AA busted by 64 off in back to back MTTs.

My question is I have heard the term Bofraud tossed around lately. Is this as common on other sites and should I be concerned about "Bofraud" giving weaker players a crutch to keep them coming back?

Thanks

Hey, man, don`t pay any attention to these other guys. You`re totally right, Bodog is rigged. I know that, because the voices told me. ;)

It's actually a fair question for a noob. Kaahk hit it, all sites have those names, and if you expand your horizons and play on the others, you will see the same sick suckouts, its part of poker.

I'm sure you can look up many different theories on this and other forums, but essentially the online "bad beats" are a result of more players calling loose and thus seeing more showdowns.

The important mindset when you lose is to realize whether you made the right plays or not. It is easy to blame the cards and bad players, but maybe you made a mistake along the way (giving a free card, not betting enough to eliminate odds, etc). Maybe you played it perfectly; realizing this is vital, too, as it makes those beats easier to take knowing that in the end, more often than not it should go your way...

Hey guys, on behalf of bodog poker, I would like to confirm that the site is NOT rigged in any way. Bodog Poker has an excellent reputation in the industry and very loyal customers - they would not risk that for anything. Each deck and hand is uniquely generated using a Random Number Generator (RNG) and the RNG is regularly tested to make sure that it is working as it should. Bodog Poker has also had this portion of the system tested externally by Gaming Associates, an international software testing company who tests the majority of all other online poker RNG's. For more information on Bodog Poker's RNG and to view the Card Shuffling Certification, please follow this link:

That canned respose may work on novice players, however people who have yrs of experience know the difference. Or maybe three days ago when i played a 4hr session and got quads 7 times that was totally random right?! It just happened to be the first day i had come back to BODOG in months after being killed by your "random" card generator.....what about the bots that are all over your site? come on give me another canned response. BODOG IS RIGGED!!!!!!

Nice first post.
Bodog is not rigged.
Bots have nothing to do with poker sites, they are made by ppl who suck at poker. (kinda like ppl who think sites are rigged)
Oh and welcome to CardsChat.

poker

i remember reading that you can perfect poker, and still lose. when we do the right thing, we are conditioned to expect positive results, but throw that all out the window when it comes to poker. Its totally frustrating but you will get your share of luck eventually. But you are not the only one who goes through their share of bad luck. Everyone goes through it, but I agree, it completely zaps your confidence when you keep losing with the best of it before the flop only to see the other guy catch the 1 damn card he needs in the deck.
