The thing is, they are right about poker being a losing proposition. And it is "rigged", but not in the way they think. You can only win when you play substantially better than your opponents, due to the rake (the rake is where it is "rigged", because it weighs you down quite a bit, making it a hard game to beat).
Players of equal ability playing each other will all lose money fast.
So on average it's best not to play, unless you are willing to pay, or study that much harder than your opponents.

Hi, everybody.
Very big set of complaints on that that game in the poker room is arranged. But we when win in a hopeless situation for some reason we forget about it.
Estimate game really, look at live tournaments and compare. They will cause a stir in nothing.

just what i am saying is happening lately on riggedstars, this week last few days is insane to not believe there is something fishy about this
Never believed i would think this way but i do now. (raisetherake, even the damn online poker show password was: raise the rake... )
P.S. it doesnt have anything to do with one player having advantage over another, is just about raising the rake, make two or more people fight it out all in.

Posted by ratovic80: Will this thread be turning in to fuckpokerstars.com little brother?
look at the first 4 games on 100k that just started, notice them pairs on board all the time?
does it look random to you if its 16/20 games with pair on board and most of times flush draw or straight draw or A
P.S. I recommend you to withdraw most of your $$$ there is just too obvious not to be noticed now. Has nothing to do with badbeats or hating stars i still love them as they have best turneys but right now everyone can notice, simple open a table or turney and go play and see for yourself.
