There is nothing strange or surprising in this. Offline such distribution is also very common. Just online we play a lot more hands in the period of time than offline, so it seems to us that online random number generator is not honest.

recently I started something not that a little bit not to trust online poker, but very often I see that people with all sorts of different garbage on hand win when playing all-in-Bank than you with good cards. or as one player five times in a row plays all-in with any cards tipo J5 variegated and constantly wins at the showdown. just funny

...the answer was about trust....and not about whyI agree. I was playing on the Venom freeroll on ACR on a full table and everyone was inactive except myself and one player. Many times during the game when I folded the active player against the inactive player checks down all the way to the river. I keep messaging for the player to bet against the inactive players but he continued doing the same. This happens many times on ACR's freeroll. Register on those freerolls and see what I'm talking about.
ai, bots, etc., and many other are reasons why i'm so scared to deposit money to play online anymore. Online poker is not the same as it was 10 years ago. It's just too risky now a days imo. :icon_puke
He knows that and we all know that TheRaven68. The question is about if we trust online poker not why we have to play.
:hmmmm2:
Yep Yep I agree. :five:
...if someone dont trust in online poker, there is a lot of opportunities for offline play

I never thought about this but I heard about VARIATION AND PROBALITITY in online poker. It is like the real life. You can not expect even in live poker to win everytime with AA. Me personally had a lot of bad beats with AA, online.:fight:

the key word here is "Sometimes." It happens with everyone. This is psychology: you do not want to think that you have done something wrong, or just a streak of bad luck. It is more convenient to think that the software is deceiving you =)

I don't never know what I can trust online things seem so fishy alot and in reality I wish the best hand held up due to there percent wises as much as there percents were worth online instead of letting the the 20 percenter guy getting his money in with 20 percent chance to win how about they let they 20 percenter win 20 percent of the time in the dude getting his money in 80 percent good how bout letting him win 80 percent of the time the good reads and plays should pay off more online it's quite crappy it don't the 20 percenter be beating the 80 percenter way to much it's exausting an pointless for the good player to even play if percents don't come into play at all and site just rewards dumb luck all the time

It's not a question of trusting online poker it's understanding where the risk exists and how it has been addressed in the past or otherwise. Aside from having your funds skimmed depositing and withdrawing and not obtaining interest while in your account you need to contend with rake and other simple things. If your game is good enough, you should be able to tell if you are in a rigged game or not.

I run absurdly below ev with a bunch of strange calls from villains online and have mostly been break even. When I play live (despite the competition being a lot easier) I do a lot better. I hate to say online poker is rigged because it feels like a chef blaming their tools, but it's really hard to deny sometimes. It's very possible I'm just unlucky, but hard to have any kind of clarity when you see some insane beats.

Hi There
If you trust you will keep on playing on this or that site
If you don´t then you´ll leave and never come back
But the main point is why 100.000 players keep on playing in the big one site?
Shoudn´t they leave and the site fade away? What happens?
So the answer is as long as there are many players....keep it

I get nervous from online poker, because certain sites have more bots than others, but playing online is convenient and a good place to practice. I would prefer an actual casino though over online. Hard to be a bot in real life

I hate Bots
I agree with you, I hate Bots as well. I wish they would ban them.
