A loose network of individuals mainly dozn01, generally connected through online communications, dedicated to spreading the belief that 'online' poker is 'rigged'. The most common belief is that players are 'fed' above-average starting hands to make them play more pots, thus supposedly increasing rake for the site.
An objective analysis quickly reveals this to be unworkable. Pre-loading players with excellent starting hands would in fact *lower* rake overall. This is because such a practice would invariably cause play to occur over a small number of large pots, rather than a large number of small pots. Since most sites 'cap' the rake at a given figure (typically taking a maximum of $3 per pot regardless of size), this would be deleterious to profit. Additionally, after a small series of large pots, *at least* one person at the table will have lost all their money. Hence no more pots (and thus no more rake) *at all*.
The nonsensicality of the Poker Conspiracy Self-Support Group's beliefs is no deterrent to the promulgation of their credo. This is because these are, invariably, losing players, who do not wish to acknowledge that they have been repeatedly beaten in a game of skill by players whose skill is superior to theirs. It is perhaps a noteworthy comment on the human condition that such conspiracies do not exist with regards to other skill games where money is not directly used as a tool of play.
The Poker Conspiracy Self-Support Group exists so that its members may continue to delude themselves about their poker ability, comfort each other over their soooooo-so rigged rivers, ignore pot odds and implied odds, and collectively justify committing mass credit-card fraud, since 'it's not stealing if they're thieves too'.

4:1 its pretty good deal if you consider you have to only check to get the chance.
You should have played he hand more agresive.You re fault.

This is either a case of amazing humor, or amazing unability to understand what is read. Or, peshapps, signs of an amazing fixation of poker. (Having read through all of the text all he could think of was that the hand was played wrong.)

Online poker is rigged to the length of, don't know if you all have notice but when you are in a tournament and you are going heads up in the middle of the tournament with someone that has more chips than you, you will 70% of the time lose if you are going to be all in because the big stack mostly always wins.
