    Welcome to Poker, sounds like someone who is on tilt which table you play so i can play you, and no Pokers stars would not be stupid enough to rig the RNG neither are they ganging up against you to make you lose, you learn to play poker and play against those kind of players then you can beat them.

    its 1% because there actually is a 1% chance of it happening. other wise it would be 0%

    well I have been playing on Stars since 2002 and my win rate is just about the same (when you break it down per table) as my live win rate
     
     
    so all the bull about it being fixed is garbage....just not the case

    Pokerstars is not fixed....
     
    I mean, no one has ever caught anyone fixing poker online....
    https://abcnews.go.com/Technology/story?id=3752500
     
    Just another sick gambler who needs an excuse like this guy....
    https://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=2975532
     
     
    Plus we all know how legit college basketball is....
    https://www.toledoblade.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20080807/SPORTS11/167375353
     
    The honest answer is, if money is involved, then yes there is potential for major fraud. 
     
    Now between the .10/.20 - 3/6 tables you are most likely playing, it is far more likely that players you are playing against are playing together as a team rather than you  getting "beat" by the system. Bad beats suck, but they happen live just as often as they do online. You just see a billion more hands online.

    No i just thought it was funny that since i was getting closer and closer to my bonus money that all of a sudden it was like I couldnt win anymore. And no i didnt play at the cash tables just the $3 or $6 tourneys. I won a shit load of them or at least placed but farther and farther down the road to my bonus I got, i started getting bad beat after bad beat etc....got really annoying and ridiculous if you ask me. it probably isnt rigged but dam thats some B.S.....And no I wasnt playing hold' em, Im a Omaha player, and yes I know there a lot more outs when you play Omaha, but im actually pretty patient, and IMO, a really good confident Omaha player...

    not just pokerstars, but it happens everywhere especially online.  i've had tilts where nothing, and i mean nothing goes right, such as losing a set of Aces to quad 5s.  these things make you wonder about the software.  i've been playing online for the past 2 years and i still have a hard time controlling my emotions after a bad beat.  basically when you get a bad beat you should stop playing and just cool off, most often than not.. it is what happens after a bad beat that kills you, you tend to play any ol cards.  a bad beat doesn't kill you, your emotion does, always live to play another day, and in the end if you're disciplined will be ahead.

    i have stopped playing at pokerstars just because of bad luck.  I dont think It is fixed or anything, but I have been sucked out too many times.  Just like changing tables when the dealer gets 21 three times in a row.  Also,  People on poker stars are more likely to see the last card, and chase a flush or a straight.  I think the level of play on full tilt might be a little more intelligent, giving you better odds if you are playing seriously.   Just my opinion.

    so all the bull about it being fixed is garbage....just not the case

    are you an idiot, or just working for poker stars? only one or the other would say these poker sites arent rigged. its so obvious that they are rigged.
