    Default online poker is rigged because....

    I hear it all the and it's time to put it to rest. The number 1 reason you hear guys say that online poker is rigged is........

    "They have good hands going head to head, so they can build a pot and take more rake"

    The only problem with this common conspiracy theory is that almost every room I've ever played in has a capped rake. And you need no where near a "huge rigged pot" to cap it. Any normal 3-4 way action pot is going to cap it.

    You see big hands going up against each other because you play 70-80 hands or more an hour online vs probably 20 live. 4 times the hands in one table. If you play 3 tables, thats 12 times the hands an hour.

    Good luck at the tables

    "pain is good... if you feel pain, you know you're still alive"

    All poker, online and live, is rigged. God is up their laughing his head off as he manipulates the cards to make us feel the most pain possible. Only becasue he loves us and wants us to know we're still alive.
    "People are always blaming their circumstances for what they are. I don't believe in circumstances. The people who get on in this world are the people who get up and look for the circumstances they want, and if they can't find them, they make them." - George Bernard Shaw
