The cards are dealt to us by a robot, but we play against real people, is everything really so innocent?

does anyone have doubts about the fairness of online poker because I have experienced that you can also play chess against artificial intelligence and sometimes they are even smarter than humans, why should online poker be more fair

because I know from experience that when I play poker on a new online site I get very lucky, it's suspicious because it's a scam, but after I've been playing there for 1 year or more, nothing happens

I played with you at the same table yesterday. You simply, stupidly play with everything in a row, with any junk. Apparently, the problem is not new or old sites, but that you are just playing with garbage :)

friend, if you see that I'm playing badly, then there's a reason for it, either the tournament is worthless or I'm tired of poker, that's it
I always play my best game in serious tournaments

I used to think the same way, that is why I have never made a deposit on any site. There could be some sites that let you win enough to think "hey this is easy" and then you start to deposit more and more money only to lose everything.
I have always had a lot of patience, and if I cannot play for free I don't play, winning money in freerolls allows me to build a bankroll and then I use that money to play in buy-in games, So even if I lost everything, It still has not cost me a single Penny.

First 2 or 3 days on Replay Poker, absolutely flying it.
Last 3 days on the same site, not hitting half as many flops and getting hit by 1 and 2 outers when I do.

Small sample size, granted.

Another observation of that site is, if you've got three of a suit on the board for a flush, you can almost guarantee that the river will be a fourth card of that suit to scupper your flush to someone playing ace or king high.

I can 100% guarantee you that the cards/hands at Replay are not manipulated in any way. :)

No, noone on this forum ever had any doubts about the fairness of online poker. Now let me ask u something: Do u even read the forum/threads here?

Why not just follow through with all ur knowledge/experience and just play with ur accounts untill they are 1 year old? Then switch sites/accounts for max profit?

For big online poker rooms there is no reason why they try to scam or manipulated cards in any possible way and also all players are real and not bots, this online poker rooms already make tons of money just running their platform, I don't think that they put themselves at risk doing illegal things.

cards are dealt randomly so the robot doesn't care who wins and with which cards you just see the cards, then the actions depend on you, you play as you like, the main thing is that you know how to play with cards and the poker site doesn't care who wins, they don't really care, they will get their earned money

friend, the fact that you don't make a deposit on poker sites is good, but you still lose, because you lose valuable time and nerves when playing

In poker you don't get dealt cards by AI and also you don't play against AI.
It's not a robot...it's an algorythm.

Everything is possible . But I hope that the sites are fair. Otherwise the site will lose players. We will never know the truth.

If you dont trust online poker, dont play it, simple.

What would the poker rooms' motive be for choosing winners and losers when they already have a very profitable business, why jeopardise that by cheating, it makes no sense.

If you have a large online site, you can trust the dealer robot.
