I have to agree I have had weird experiences on PS too. I am just so surprised that there are so many others that feel that PS could be rigged. I have been playing with them for more than a year and haven't really tried any other site. I have lost about 100$ or so with them. I win occasionally on play money but I have always lost under bad beat circumstances with real money. Now since I haven't compiled detailed hand histories I can't claim I have been scammed outright but the suspicion definitely exists.
One other thing I have noticed on
PokerStars and I am not sure if others have is that when I am playing multiple tables, I have noticed that the my hole cards and the community cards are very similar across different tables especially if they are dealt around the same time(eg. I would have Ace-Small on two tables and the flop would be 9-9-Q on table one and 9-J-9 on another) . I have noticed this consistently since I joined PS to know that this wasn't just coincidence. I know that most random number generators are based on the system clock. Is this why this is happening? Anyone has better insight into how the different poker sites shuffle their decks?
Also, I want to say to the posters on this thread that keeps telling everyone not to complain. Most of us are here talking to each other trying to find answers. Now I can't be hundred percent certain if I am being had or if I am just playing worse with real money than with play money. Thats why we are all airing our thoughts on this forum to figure out whats happening. Isn't that the whole point of coming on to a forum?
