    Lol the better hand won't win all the time, so if it's a 70-30, it will exactly that percent on the long run. Nothing is rigged, you just have to play more hands.

In the first couple days pocket kings lost five times in a row. From my play experience here, SBR poker is Bad Beat City forcing me to alter my play greatly.
    You can't be serious.....online poker is an extremely volatile thing...and adding the fact that this is a free site, poor hands are going to be played at a higher rate, and thus are going to win more often

    In my opinion there is no way that SBR would rig their poker, but then again, I havent played it so what the hell does my opinion matter?...lol

    lol... happened again. Blinds are still level 1 in the BB i got KK (again). There were like 6 callers so i went all in figuring atleast 1 donk will make the call since only 4 hands have been played and donks still remains if there are any. To my surprise, first guy to make a decision after me calls. Rest of field folds. He shows AQs. Flop comes A42 all clubs. I got K of clubs. turn and river comes 2 blank 10s. lmao not the first time and certainly wont be the last of my streak

    The odds of me never winning 1 showdown in favorite spot? I accumulate most of my chips raising/bluffing in position. But once one of those comes all my work is gone in a sweep.

    This.

    For anyone who thinks it's rigged, read this over and over and over again. Then stop playing poker.

    (and I'm saying this 10 minutes after being beaten on the river to get 2nd place)

    Also, I think anyone who truly deep down BELIEVED it is rigged they a) would stop playing or b) are a masochist.

    It's tough to rationalize bad beats especially online when you are having to trust some faceless site admins and some faceless programmers far away to deal the cards fairly against faceless opponents.

    At least at SBR the principals of the site are posting here. Do we get even that much from stars, FT, etc?

    i think the players that are asking this are the ones who got beat by the river,if u play poker u should know,weve all been there and will be there again,so need to stay away from all in early in tourneys until the fish bet eliminatee,then the poker gets better

    ok... headsup SB vs BB with blinds extremely high. Folded around to SB (me) holding aces. Min raise and we see a flop. Pair comes on the flop. Soon after all in he shows K10 trips to crack AA headsup.
    Busted hands of 3 previous tournys: KK, KK, AA

    I've had some pretty nasty beats on sbr pokr but do not think it is rigged at all. Nasty stuff happens in poker we just only remeber the bad but forget when something is supposed to go our way
