1. Are these poker sites rigged in any way? Do they skew hands so that on average there is a bigger pot size (for a bigger rake) than normal?
2. How Illegal is it to play on these sites if you are in the US?
3. Can you withdraw your money in the form of a personal check?


I need the lowdown, because If I am going to start playing online, I need to be informed. Any info you have will be appreciated.
