    People who like to claim this, there is a very simple solution: If you think it's rigged then don't play! Couldn't be simpler.

As far as playing position and not waiting for top hole cards, again, if the software is configured to award players who continuously shove a larger all in stack against a smaller one, that is what is fuk'ed up! And I've played enough god damn hands to know this is exactly what is happening!

    I think with the rapid increasing blind structure and the fact that SBR wants these tourneys over and done with quickly, measures have been taken to increase a leading chip stack by eliminating smaller ones via "supposedly random" higher hole cards being dealt out to the higher chip leader and having that same chip leader or leaders hit winners on turn and river cards.

    If I'm playing against a guy who already early on has 25K to my 5K in chips, how the fuk are you gonna match up when he's shoving 5K or more at a time, even if you do have a strong hole pair or something along the lines of AK? You can't or you don't because you've already watch this guy blast to 25K by hitting river after river or getting killer hole cards where you end up drawing dead. I sit and watch this shit happen over and over again! And you're gonna tell me it's fuk'in lucky or random?
    as it maybe some true about any soft, the fact is that luck play an enormus part in the game, You know that as you stated how long you had been plaing poker. However my strategi is to play very tight the first 15 minutes or till blinds are 50 100 , there is when the play starts a bit more sirius.
    I hope your luck reverses very soon and the bad moment pass.

    The RNG here is a bit of a joke. I don't think it's rigged but I do notice Big stacks do tend to get more cards going there way. I have had one to many seriously bad beats here to say the RNG is fine. In the entire 4 years I played online poker I have had double the amount of horrendous bad beats here in a few months with less hands.

    The only thing I keep telling myself is when they launched this crap-ware they told us all it was programed for action. So we have to be fair and admit they were honest at least.

    Gaming... software... is... developed... to... be... manipulated. It's... not... rocket... science.

    If it were my software being developed... I would want options. Not saying I'd use the "options", but can't say I wouldn't want to have them either.

    I don't think is rigged.

    I came 4th the last couple days and the best pre-flop hand I got was pocket 10's. I finished final table 8-10 times in May.

    The problem I see with novice players is they go all in when they shouldn't on 20% chance win hands. I have folded 15 hands in a row if the odds don't favor me. If I play a hand and the flop doesn't favor me I fold. Never chase with 10-20% chance to win a hand. You need to have minimal luck on one hand maybe the whole round but you also have to be able to read cards of other players. I pretty much know who bluffs or who has strong hands most of the time and people never know if I bluff or have strong hands most of the time. So improve your skills and don't fault the software.

    it's not rigged, generally good play will get you to the final table then you will need a little luck to win. there's certainly more donkeys playing on SBR than sites like poker stars or fulltilt..but them are the ones you want to play against. Certainly now and then the donkeys will win but more times than not you will.

    I am highly confident that sbr could not prove that sbr poker is completely fair odds and that the software isn't manipulated to end tournaments quicker by having the chip leaders win with inferrior hands or coin flips higher than the rates they are supposed to hit.

    No different than sbr casino... The edge in craps is supposed to be 1% and sbr's edge i'm estimating is probably 25-30% if not more.

    Gamblers see all kinds of patterns where there are none.

    Winners deal with the cold runs. This isn't fukking chess, there is luck.

    apricot sinner is almost right about the sbr casino.i got some lucky spins in retro sci-fi slots.the trick is to play max bets,(0.45 points per spin).if i get over 20 betpoints,i play back 20%,then get out.i played last week with sbr change(0.85 points) i played max for 1rst spin,hit for 2.75 points,continued max,and,got 5 symbols and some smaller ones in the same spin,and got 36 betpoints.i played down to 28 points,and,screwed.does'nt work all the time.but,still,it's my #1 bailout.
    good luck everyone.

    I only play good cards, rarely am the bigger stack, and yet have made as many, or more, final tables as anyone this month. Last month, in theoretically significantly easier games (30/tourney instead of 60) I barely made any. It's called variance. That, combined with the simple fact that the vast majority of the field is playing bad because they either don't care or don't know better, is all you need to explain "weird" results. Believing dumb conspiracy theories is moronic, but hey if it makes you feel better about your losses tell yourself whatever you want.

    If you ever notice there are a certain core of people that do well in these things quite often. So they would be my first people to look at as far as poker conspiracies. They must be the chosen ones.

    You guys got it all wrong. This software is rigged, but not as you describe.

    Today, I witnessed a player named "blackbart" win a 3 way allin (as the smallest stack) with KQ against AA and KK. Then he beat JJ with 99 allin preflop. Then he beat AQ with J9 nearly allin preflop. He was playing >50% of all hands and winning 90%. The only person who beat him out of a big hand all game? hhsilver! These beats are not real! Clearly the software is biased towards people with colors in their screen names!

    P.S. The person who knocked me out was hhsilver. Rigged, I tell you. Rigged!

    online poker players seem to only remember when they're unlucky and not when they get lucky..when they're unlucky, it's rigged. I've played thousands of hands online in the last 3-4 years and sometimes you get lucky and sometimes you don't..works out even in the end.

    Well, not quite. If you are good you *should* get unlucky more often than lucky since you rarely should be behind when the money goes in.

    P.S. I bust people with "big" hands often because they badly misplay their hand. They let me get a better one for cheap and then I don't let them off easy. I'm sure in their minds they were unlucky/bad beat, but they did it to themselves.
