Yeah Merge has changed something cause it wasnt this bad before black friday, Now the underdog is favored more often then not.. You see players playing this horrible style of play nowadays and its getting rewarded a shit ton more then it was before black friday!! They have EVERYTHING to gain by keeping donks around, i dont what part of that some of you dont understand. 2 years ago the way play is today would have had ALOT of people quitting poker altogether cause it didnt reward at the rate it does today! I think 1000's of hands is a good enough sample to have an opinion that something has changed.. When you have fewer customers you have to find a way to keep them and keep them gambling. Risk takers are going to make more money for the site then solid(tight selective agressive) players. Solid players dont over risk there money, they dont buy right into another one if they get donked out. A real player uses BRM and thats something these sites dont want, so why not reward some risk takers more often then not, they know they will buy into another one real quick. I dunno id really like to believe online isnt rigged but you just see way too much BS to just push it aside.
