    Default Why does internet poker favor the larger stack??

    I am interested to hear different players views on internet poker, i have been playing poker for over 10 years but over the past 5 years i have mostly been playing no limit holdem. i mostly play live i have played all over the uk and ireland i have played in the irish open and also the 888 ukopen also i have played for my county team.
    I play online reluctently, my reason for not being to keen on playing online is that i strongly believe that internet poker favors the player with the larger stack and i think that because of this it is impossible to play a proper game of cards!! Time after time i see the player with the worst hand coming out on top by the time the river comes usually when he has more chips than the other player! I no that most sites that i have emailed about this come out with the same garbage about randomley generated hands but i think that this is nonsense it happens far to much for it to be randomley generated!! i think that poker sites do this to get the tournament over with as quick as possible and get players out so that they will enter another tournament and then they get more income! Also when it happens in cash games that they can make more rake! If anyone can give me name of a poker site that does not do this i would be happy to hear the name of it!!

    Search forums, keep rigged stuff to one thread, blah blah blah, same stuff I say every couple of days.
    For Free Money, Rakeback and some 6x Ongame bonuses, I recommend PokerSource.

    I recommend Cardrunners for superb poker coaching. It was honestly the single biggest improvement in my game signing up there! Sign-up fee might seem steep, but it pays itself back within weeks.
