If you get bad beated 13 times in 3 hours, then you've played what, like 150 hands or something? 200 tops? That's NO WHERE nearly enough to even think about calculating stats or anything. You need tens of thousands of hands to be able to tell whether something is rigged or not

yeah, like 120 hands, and those 13 hands were AA or KK, and i lost every hand.. and that was just the worst suckouts, i won 3 hands...or 4.... and that was becaus they all folded.. so either they were true sharks that had a insane read on me OR, its like me and what many more say, its a bad place

So how is it rigged, who controls it and how ? I think they earn more in rake by keeping cutomers instead ripping them of their first buy-in with a rigged game. The buy-in is small money compared to the rake a player could make for them if he was satisfied and kept playing.

gotta agree on this one, these poker sites just can't rip their players, there won't be any players left to rip before they know it and keeping up a site like that must be expensive.

I got 25$ there today and lost them already . The software was pretty crappy so I threw the money away. But I noticed something unusual too. I was playing NL20$ and this one guy had monsters about half the time and other times he hit all his gutshots straight draws etc. I've played in about 10 different sites and have never seen a guy so lucky. But I'm not claiming the site is rigged, because that wouldn't benefit Ladbrokes in anyway. It's just variance.

Wow, you guys must really hate ladbrokes, i'm having better luck in there than in AP. At AP, I got dealt with AA but got always beaten, no connectors or anything. That sucks!

I dont know about Ladbrokes but those things do happen. I stopped playing for 4 or 5 months on Pokerstars because i didnt get wining cards on a limit holdem, folded + played, for 160+ hands i stopped counting at this point and started doing all things you do when youre mad. When I calmed down, first thing i did uninstall and tried it again after 4 or 5 months. Half of those 160 hands were same BS as previously mentioned QQ situation. POINT. This happened after 6-7 hours playing allin on playmoney NL 200 and 4 of us were playing all 6-7 hours in one piece. After that allin game this happened so it is weird coincidence. Never again have i played allin ring games on PS.
