Default Party Poker River Card Statistics

Hi All

I've seen this discussed on other sites but I was wondering what experience you all have had at Party Poker regarding the seemingly ridiculous number of hands that are won on the river card? I can accept bad beats, they are part of poker, and I can also accept that I may go through an unlucky streak whereby I might lose out with AA or KK to a hand like J10 a few times in a row. What I've witnessed on Party over the last few months though completely defies belief. Looking through my hands I've worked out that on the hands I've done all in with over the last few months around 75% of them I've been pre flop favorite. I've actually only won about 10% of those hands and at least 75% of the hands I've lost have been with a river card hit by another player. Its not just me and I've seen plenty of others get saved or get hit by a lucky river but the percentage of hands that are won on the river seem statistically too high. Ultimately if I don't like playing there I can go elsewhere and its not as if I'm playing for serious money but I wondered what others thought?

Cheers,
