    not a money issue, to me getting cheated out of 5 bucks is the same as getting cheated out of 5000 bucks...its the principle of the matter and on the first hand too, that was the clincher

    I know what you mean, this type of thing has happened to me also, really makes you wonder if some of the players are working for the site or something.
     
    I was in a big money tourney recently online and I was doing real well, I think 5th in chips with only like 50 players left. I caught AA and raised preflop, one guy calls, third guy re-raises me all in which was the majority of my chips to call. Of course I called and he turns over a FUCKING 7, 5 OFFSUIT!
    I started laughing hysterically unitl the flop came 7 7 4.
    Now, seriously, I worked my ass off in this thing to make it to the final 50, and there were no more donkeys left, everyone left seemed like they knew how to play. That ruined my tournament. There is NO WAY anyone would make that bet UNLESS they knew.

    the best advice to clownonmyside and the rest of the world, dont play online poker at any site, they are all rigged in one way or another, you can not win in the long run.

    When you "sit" at a $.25/$.50 table with other people all having $25 in front of you, you're not even playing poker.  You're playing roulette.

    There is the normal 2 or 3 guys get on a table with different computers and their cell phones in hand, and tell each other what they are holding, et cetera.  I tried on-line poker for a few days in the .50-1 tables and things were pretty much like everyone is mentioning here.  You get people who are complete idiots and win, whether by luck or by cell phone info.  It's a real thing happening and I no longer am interested in poker on-line. 
     
    By the same token, it is the same in Vegas.  You get 2 or 3 at a table playing together and pushing the bets, et cetera, for their partners.  This is not fiction, but fact, just like with on-line poker.

    One thing about this whole rigged conversation:
     
    Do you ever notice that all the people who cry its rigged all have this in common:
     
    1) The tables they get "fucked" at are always microlimits (less then $1 blinds at a cash table and less than $20 tourney buy-in)
     
    2) They have very little experience playing online. Theyve sent $50 once or twice to a site or two but overall have less than 100 hours of online experience
     
    3) they all feel they are good players, know what theyre doing, and feel that "If I cant win online, its rigged"
     
    4) Finally, they post results from one, two, or three specific hands as if AA getting cracked by 2-7 off proves its rigged. Anything can happen on any given hand. Show me 100 hands you were all in preflop with AA against 1 player and lose 50 of them, then we'll listen
     
     
    My point is, Do you notice you never see anyone who has any real experience, talent, or plays high-stakes complaining about it being rigged??? Its like the $50 sports bettor saying his losing pick was fixed

    I probably have seen more internet hands than most here. I have been refunded money more than once because of collusion. It happens. As for rigged - no one can 100% prove that it is. I've seen every conceivable beat but I don't abuse my computer or scream at the walls claiming "it's rigged". I simply click on the next tourney entry button and move on.

    My advice to anyone that thinks it's not on the up and up and continue to reload - GET OUT.

    Good Luck to all bravehearts.
