bad mouth site......site will make you lose,,,,

[tp3rd]

Ive got no problem with badbeats,its part of the game.what I do have is the frequency of them. Percentages are percentages and over time they should prevail.....seemingly not the case at Merge(for me anyways) and when it comes to playing with real money its just not cool or right!

Your thoughts here sound like a common misconception when it comes to roulette. When it comes black 10 times in a row people say its 50/50 red and black so it has to come red now. But the truth is that wheter or not its come black 10 times in a row the % for it to come red never changes. The same way as someone hitting a small % out has no affect on him hitting a small % out the next hand.

These sites make money simply off of people playing on their site. Why would any of them jeopardise it by simply cheating you. They stand nothing to gain from it

If you cant prove they are cheating ,then they got nothing to lose.

Yes they have. If they just cheated everyone who talked bad about them outta money then eventually noone would be left and they would make no money. Then they would have to close down. Have you ever gone to an actual casino?? These poker sites make money the same way of poker that casino's do. And that is rake from hands. Are you telling me that if your sitting at a table in the casino and decide to talk bad about the casino that the dealer is going to simply rig the deck to make sure you lose all your money (Yes there are people who are more than able to deal cards in this way). Of course they wont. What do they have to gain from it?? Nothing. Sure for that 1 hand that all the money was in the pot they might make a slightly higher amount of rake but it in no way justifies the risk of actually cheating

Thats why live play is more legit than online play. You dont see the crazy flow of absurd boards in live play that you do online. Live play poker is generally boring and good hole cards that have the percentage after flop generally win the hand even if it goes to river. NOT THE CASE WITH ONLINE POKER! WHY IS THAT?

I take it you dont watch or play to much live poker as in alot of circumstances it is just as bad if not worse as online. And when considering Live poker with a 9 or 10 person table you play 10-15 hands an hr and you play atleast triple that online, it should show that online isnt even as bad as live let alone rigged

I seen Quads Aces get beat by Royal flush in live and never seen that in online. Lol.

to those who say the frequency of bad beats online is matched or even close to being matched live, i have to say i disagree greatly. i dont buy the "you play more hands online" as being a contributing factor to the frequency of bad beats. its just the way online is, it induces action... period

This is what i just talked about it my post. It isnt just the frequency of hands its the common knownledge that people play looser online than live so more people seeing the flop will result in more times worse hands beat better ones.
