We were so poor when I was a kid....my folks used to 'cut' a hole in my pocket (so I'd have 'somethin' to play with).
'They 'rigged' my pocket'.......but I didn't complain much.

some ery good repsones here, excellent points made, kind of interesting that when I play, unless im drunk or do something stupid, Im getting taken out on the river only, and that seems to be a problem too, even if we are seeing 10 times the hands online, the cards are just not acting right, hands are not holding up, people get rewarded for bad play etc. etc. and im not the only one this is happening too, wow you should have seen the words coming out of one players mouth yesterday, guess it does get frustrating when the only card in the deck that can beat you keeps coming out over and over and over, thats not a bad beat, there is something fishy going on. But I will still play cause I think at any rate, Im still learning what people do with the cards they have in there hand, and yes we all take bad beats, my beef is when your a 95 percent favor to win and you keep loosing with the odds on your side, its does get nerve racking.

As for you point that online isn't poker compared to live poker I think this is a true statement but not one that necessarily means that online poker is somehow rigged. Live and online are the same game with the same rules played differently. In online you get alot of really bad play that you don;t see as often in live games. Bad play and bad players equal to more bad beats and suck outs. Plus live is more of a people game then online is. Of course the older the person is you talk to the more they are going to believe that live is "real" poker and online isn't (I say this as a 49 year old by the way), since they "grew up" with live poker before there was such a thing as online poker. Remember us old times have a general lack of understanding and a misstrust of computers and the internet.
So talking to one older guy at a poker table isn't evidence that online poker is rigged.

played in a few tournies at a friends house last month, we played for about 8 hours
during this time there were two royals, numerous full houses and quads
my A7 lost to A3 when a 3 hit on the turn then again on the river (putting me out of the tourny)
Dumped out of another tourny by runner runner flush when illian had absolutely nothing
Pocket Aces got dealt more frequently than 1 in every 200
This is by no means an exhaustive list of the strange things that happened that day. These stats just dont add up, i have now labelled my friends house as rigged and have refused to play there again.
