i did do this at stars. i was amazed at how many runner runner pulls come on stars. i attribute this to bad players. a solid player isnt going to chase a 2 card out most times. the RNG goes nuts from friday afternoon until sunday evening. some of the baddest beats i have ever seen come at those times on stars. i wouldnt go as far to say rigged but there are tables that are strange. yes luck plays a huge role in poker but there is a fine line that is crossed every now and then. i think we take for granted they are the up and up. as long as they are close to the real thing we will play there.

JMO

i play hours live and hours on-line and you see many more suck outs on line.

varsity i consider myself a solid player. when you have guys calling AA with 72 os and winning things seem strange. the two sites with the worst players seem to be party and stars. tonite at stars i played 3 b2b sngs. was 2nd in chips in the blinds pick up AA, played them aggressive and got cracked all 3 times by K7 os. 3 seperate games mind you.

gdice ...only flaw with that is the RNG should only be worried about 1 table at a time. it is dealing with 100's of tables odds all at the same time. iff you play 100 hands live you see AA maybe 2 or 3 times. on line it could be 2 or 3 times an hour. sometimes half hour. your not seeing enough hands to give people odds like that. IMO

i have my degree in mathmatics. in live games games you see 30-40 hands an hour. on line its like 50-60. 20 hands should not skew the odds that much.

Okay. I have played countless hours online and on a live table..

Let me give you a quick example of a hand that I saw.

Player to the right of the button had JTs, the Button had JJ then player next to him had QQ, the player(me) had KK and the one to my left had AA.

Now is this Live? or is this Online.. Well it was on a live table.

I've seen royal Flush flops on a live table, ive seen a guy call a stone cold bluff with 84o against someone calling with KK and an K26 on the board and an 5 and 7 come next.. a complete suck-out. Play enough hands on a live table (not just the occasional weekend in the card room..) I play often at a "play table" that is bascialy a "live video game" with no payouts or cashouts for $5.. this gives me a good 6-12 hours of expiernce on a table each weekend... many are the same players with the ocasional newbie.. a good way to put this table is a scene from Rounders where they are in Atlantic city and a new player sits down and they all give each other the "ah a fish sat down" stare.

A good way to put it is, if you can't see the fish in your Sit and Go on pokerstars, then you are it.

this guy has watched the re runs of tilt too much. its not set up at all. there is 52 cards and i'm pretty sure there is someone in charge of making sure they're not cheating because stilling money is against the law. just know when to put yer chips in the pot or know when to fold and u'll like online poker much better.

You see many more hands per hour in a tourny on PS than you see in live play...its perceived that you are losing more often and people are sucking out aginst you more often, but I think if all things were equal, online play would be the same as live play...also remember in freerolls people play much more loosely than in live tournies...
