You must have your setting set at RIT (Run It Twice ) anyway it would be easier if i put the link here explaining it to you champ. Personally i not for it, but others love it.

Didn't know they had a run it twice option anywhere online. This is quite common in live poker but I don't think it's practical for online poker.
Of course this benefits the poker room. Split pots are obviously more common when you have two boards and the only winner in a cash game split pot is the house. Both players lose half the rake of going all-in and gain nothing.
When I play live away from the casino we often run it two or three times but I tend to prefer running it once. I stand by my decisions and if I get myself into a flip it's because I want to double up. The only time I see the benefit is when you're forced to go all-in because a few short stacks have given you amazing pot odds and a bigger stack calls you who you'd rather split the pot with.

I have selected run it twice, and it has probably lost me more money that it has gained. It's rare for other players to have it, so I'm somewhat relieved when I have AK when they do have it.
