the issue here is all online poker rooms, will not involve names, plus there is the question, will be that online poker is handled by the system, for many players lose?

Yes, I think it's pretty obvious that most of the poker rooms are being manipulated. Look at the edge of the art technologies that prevail in the internet and the software that is being used there has no difference whatsoever. So I believe yes admins and owner of poker rooms can affect the range of cards being dealt to certain players.

I'm sorry, but I just can't go along with this, because I've seen so many crazy hands watching the pros play, so I sure can't believe the dealer is giving one player a good hand and another one a losing hand, but still good enough to keep him in the hand
teamjb and partyboy392 what level do you play at right now? Do you believe that thinking like that can help you win more because you are more careful, or can they cause you to lose more because they cause you to lose focus on each hand, or you may even think "what the hell I'm going to lose anyway." Bottom line. If you really believe that, why in the world would you keep playing and just keep losing your money?

I'm in two minds about this. I've also seen some crazy hands online... but then again, I've seen some crazy hands live. It would be easy for them to manipulate the system... but why would they. They make enough money of the Poker client anyways. There have been some scandals at some pokersites (not mentioning any names, but I'm sure you are aware of them ) so sure, they can and do manipulate the system. Best thing to do is to find a pokersite that is trusted and tested and then do your best.

To be brute, but honest if your losing at online poker and you are blaming it, you are probably not good enough. Can there bet bots and things out of there control certainly. Online poker is tough and with rake there truly aren't many winners. You have kings I have aces they get max rake, reverse the situation and same thing and we basically just swapped money, same thing with a lot of flip situations.

Here's a good thread for you guys! (seriously there is a lot of great info. in this massive thread... but you'll have to wade through all the believers to get to it).
enjoy!

Manipulating

Man, everything is possible! When the situation involves much money it can be suspect. But, if u are a live player, it can be more difficult, because all are at the side of the dealer and the chance of manipulation get smaller. Online it can be true, but, i must say, I know people who earn much money online, people simple like me. So maybe it does not exists.

I find it really hard to believe that something like that could happen. I have played enough in casinos to see the same suckouts happen in live games that I see happen in online play. It's a psychological thing, where we think the "system" is against us because of variance. But we're quick to forget the majority of times we "hold" when in the lead.

Also, I can't imagine any website would risk losing credibility in that way. They can make millions of dollars on running a legitimate reliable website and collecting rake.

My two cents.

if you're talking possibility than - yes, surtanly. To say more many rooms have been caught on that stuff, but! since room makes money of rake,merch and other stuff constantly giving one player a bad hand and another - good would have no merrit.
Again when you started palying you were fishier (lets asume that) you weren't sliding WCOOPs FTOPs or other biggies.

If you believe that the game is rigged don't play. The combinations of hands and situations that surround NL are absurd leading to some crazy results. Yes sometimes someone will hit their 1 outer on the river and end your tournament or take another buy in from you but that is NL. It is not a algorithm set to destroy your bankroll, 80 percent is not 100 percent. Have learned that twice this morning 89% and 81% going to the river that quickly became 0%. Both situations lead to bust outs but it has nothing to do with some manipulation but instead the variables that surround this crazy game. If the swings are too much chess rewards you with every right move you make, NL does not offer that comfort.
