Is the Earth Flat? Did Man land on the Moon? Is On-line Poker Rigged?
Answers- NO, YES, NO, The only thing these statement's have in common is Conspiracy!
People are all too ready to call Cheat or Liar! Without any definitive Proof!
Player's all too easily fall in love with certain cards they believe are un-beatable A/A, K/K, A/K etc etc, even Daniel Negs has a favourite hand he loves to play, but in reality, any two cards can win in a
poker game, and any two can lose, let that sink in and maybe you can start to understand.
Poker has many outcomes that are determined by the fact that you are playing with one deck of 52 cards that once shuffled has Thousand's of possible starting hands, I know from playing Live and On-line for over 20 years, that strange things happen in Poker but it doesn't mean that someone is cheating or a game is rigged.
It's certainly one possibility, but do I let it stop me playing Poker? NO! because the level of stakes I play for certainly wouldn't break me or make someone else Rich! It just wouldn't make sense to steal a few Cents/Dollars,
We have many Professional players playing On-line for much higher stakes, and if they felt for one minute the site was doing anything to Rig! on-line games, they would be the first to act and leave the
poker site, bringing it to the Public eye letting everyone know how corrupt the site was.
I have personally beaten other players often going all-in with A/K or A/A with hands like K/Q J/10 K/10 and many many more types of hands, Why? because at some point in the game i have taken the chip lead and I am willing to gamble with practically any two cards, I once won an all-in flip with 6/2 off against A/K because when you boil it down, I know any two cards can and do sometimes WIN!
It's called LUCK! and we all know that although Poker is a game of Skill! There is always an element of Luck!
Get that into your head, stop calling
poker sites Rigged! and accept that sometimes even the best starting hands can be beaten! With Garbage hand's.
That's Life! That's Poker!
