it doesnt matter what room you play either your good or your not. ok in some rooms are more experts as in others but generaly theres everywhere good and bad players. if one room is rigged to you then any room will be rigged to you. look the pros...one day they loose a million other day they win 6 million - just poker.

Yeah i agree teddy
To be fair the beats mentioned at the start of the thread happen to me on a daily basis, then the next day you might get lucky on a few
Its funny how you always remember the bad beats, and forget about the luck you sometimes have,
lost £400 in one hand today i had Aces full of 9's full house and opponent had 10 10 and hit running 10's on turn and river for 4 of a kind! now thats a bad beat lol!!!!
Mate stop your moaning and admit your not a winner.
I had a 8,000 hand downswing in january, during which i lost $500, i won it back and more in december and so far in january im on another nastey swing which has been going on for 3,000 thus far...im not moaning because i know im a winner and for every negative in poker theres a positive...also due to the high varriance of poker i accept my loses. There are now get rich quick schemes in poker...it took me 1 year before i became a winning play...i only became a winner when i admited to myself i was a long term losser...maybe you should do the same and start to do something about it? or just stop playing all together!
BTW...online poker isnt rigged...you dont get more bad beats online...you just play hands quicker so it seems like it...ofcourse also, due to the easy acessability people have to online poker naturally you are going to get bad players who make bad calls.

The person who feels the need for a post like this is pretty stupid, two of the three hands will happen 1 out of 3 times, one is a coin flip and one is a real bad beat. The same goes for people talking about rigged sites. Yes the poker room might make a bit more per hand if they rigged ever hand with advanced rigging programming. But is it worth it? They will make so much more by instead getting more players to the poker room, and if there were much rigging players would leave the poker room, not to talk about the risk of getting caught and nor earing another cent. But if your point was that it is possible to cheat using super accounts or fixed software, then yes probably every poker room is rigged to some extent. But then live poker is rigged too, because you can cheat, every sport out there is rigged 'cause you can cheat, school is rigged 'cause, you guessed it, you can cheat. And if that was it I can assure you that no cheater would play 20 $ double up tournaments on pokerstars.

yeah everyones losing it over this one.bloody excellent.im mad now cause they giving our beer s**t,but quess what,noone in australia drinks fosters or XXXX,its catpiss,why we ship it overseas,you wont even find fosters in a pub or a bottle shop.no one buyts it.so the jokes on you.plaes e people stop going on about poker is rigged.the limits we play aint woth it,there have been cases of rigging,AP and there super servers,so yes online poker is rigged,its a computer software,easy to manipulate if you no how.poker bots are real and do work that is a form of rigging.but the answer is simple.enjoy having fun playing online poker,it is fun siting at home comfortable gambling so if its rigged,myself i dont care,i love it.i go to casino at least twice a week and have a home game e once a week cauz theres a big difference to playing online to live.you need to learn both skills in my opininon to be a winning player.poker is life anyway you can get it.end of story.

You're right...i dont know you, but with the attitude/strong tilt factor/no self controle its clear to see in all likley hood that your not. Most winners know thats its unfortunate and the only thing that matters is making the correct dessision and not the out come of an indervidual hand, series of hands or session.
I have more imprtant things to do than feel my ego playing you heads-up like earning my wage so i can live. I will though accept your challange and play you nearer the end of the month when i have completed my monthly requirements. How much would you like to play for?
I manage my bankroll very deffensivley because i know and have experienced just how long swings can last for, cash games i used to play a 30 buyin rule for the limit im playing and everyone bellow that. That number has now increased to 90 buy-ins per limit due to changes in my life. Self disaplian is just something you develope and have to work on over time, only you know your demons and when you know what they are you have to work towards taming them if not stoping them alltogether. If things get emotional or i feel something isnt right in a session i'll stop playing and go for a walk into town to buy some smokes while listening to my music loudley...it helps me burn of negative energy...if i feel the need to still play i go and play at the very lowest stakes possible (10c MTT S&G at stars, or 0.01/0.02 cash stakes) when i feel confident again and feel im making good dessisions again i'll go back to my normal limits.

i've deleted all my pkr clients from my pc many times and sworn not play wiht those idiots EVRE again.. but unlike someone here suggested that ur playing too high stakes.. i thought i'd to the opposite.. figured that those onks would not be playing with big money and did what probably is the the worst thing u can do, bought myself in a $200 tourney and what u know came out with pretty good money, didn't finnish in the top but when i went out, i knew i was taken out by a better player, not a luckky fkr.
If u got spare cash why not try how good u really r.. losing to good players is not so bad you kow

But if you are good you can beat these donks on low limits too. Without a problem. So I would better learn the game. If you dont beat low limits what makes you think you can beat higher limits. A lot of good players have grinded their bankrolls from zero starting on microlimits.
