Default Is dream poker fixed???

I think it is because this is what happened to me in consecutive hands:

1st.
this is at 0.05/10 cent blinds

i get dealt 3c 4c, there is 1 raiser who raises from 0.10 to 0.40
3 callers including me flop comes

5d 7c 6h

player to my left bets 1 dollar
i raise to 4 dollars
player 3 folds
player 2 reraises all in(8 dollars)
i call

turn kh
river 3d

player 1 (me) has str8 3 to 7
player 2 has str8 5 to nine, hes holding 8c, 9h

was i wrong to bet into this pot?

this is the first hand then the next hand
i get dealt

a pair of jacks in the hole

i raise to 0.80cents

2 callers

flop comes

6c jd 4h

i bet 1.50
player 1 folds
player 2 calls

turn 7h

i bet 2.00

player 2 calls

river 9s

i bet 3.00
player 2 calls

i have three of a kind jacks
i get beat by a str8 again...
player 2 holds 8s, 10 d

he kept calling me

and even with my stronger bet b4 the river he calls it to see his miracle card come out.

i am not playing dream poker anymore and im even thinking of stopping playing online altogether cuz this sort of thing keeps on happening to me!
its not like i play bad hands or anything i sit there folding and folding untill i get a good starting hand while eveyr1 else is raising wiv shit. maybe this is just wot happens in poker but to tell you the truth i disagree with it

Totally agree...

I've played over half a million hands and I'm now convinced that internet poker is rigged....

I know how you feel. I once lost 2 consecutive hands at a home game. I've enver been back since. it was so clearly rigged.

1st hand you should fold pf; 34s is not a good hand
2nd hand you got unlucky and got outdrawn by a chasing fish

Look, I know its frustrating to lose like that. But why in the world would the site be rigged to make you lose 15 dollars? It doesn't make sense. You got unlucky and that's that.

If this is happening to you a lot, I suggest you post some of those hands in the poker strategy section. After a few critiques, you will find your play improving and fewer bad beats. Everyone on this site would agree that having their poker play flamed in Poker Strategy has made them better players.

Nobody here is going to sympathize with "poker is fixed" and this is about the nicest response to that statement you are likely to get.

So just quit poker or start leaning here on PFO. Welcome to the site.

You're right.

Poker is rigged so that people who call preflop raises with 43 lose money.

i know 4 3 off suit is a bad starting hand, but i had 4 3 suited and i normally play these hands just 2 see wot the flop offers, but only if they are a nice enough sixed bet to call pf.
i was jst saying in that hand that 4 me to have 4 3 and theother guy to have 8 9 and the flop to come out 5 6 7 seemed a bit strange

It happens. Do you really think that the guy with the higher str8 works for dream poker and this was all a hoax to get $8 from you?

no not at all i justthink that they rig it so they can get a lot of action on hands so people bet a lot of their money into the pot so they can get a bigger rake. and dealing hands like this one is how they rig it to make more money. that is wot i think is rigged, not just 4 me but 4 all who play online, just look at pokerstars how many times do u hold a high regarded hand and always get beat by a str8 ten to ace, when all the other guy betting was holding was like a q and a 3 ??? i know i have
