You might find that many people say that Online Poker is rigged. The question is; why are they saying this, and should you really listen to them?
You will most likely come across numerous people online who think online poker is rigged! That is, they claim that playing the game online is rigged and the cards are dealt out in a certain program generated way instead of the random nature they should be in.
Most of the times you will hear such claims from three different types of people The first are those who have just had a horrendous bad beat in the game. You will also hear this from people experiencing a temporary (or more likely, permanent) downswing.
The third and also a quite common type of person that says online poker is rigged is the new online player who has had much success in real life games but suddenly is losing a lot online.
But many people with their facts and data calculations have stated a stronger reasoning to support that this game at most sites is generally not rigged.
Now suppose in a regular game of poker a person with pocket aces generally can’t lose in front of a person with pocket kings. The only slight chance that this might happen if one of the kings is hit by the river, and that therein is the very reason behind a possible loss.
Now, the online poker games don’t manipulate this slight chance against you, it’s just pure probability. The very fundamentals of the game predict that you will lose sometimes.
Thus, leaving you dejected and also losing a lot of money.
There are some people who have found that when they play poker they win a certain amount of money every time, let’s say they win approx 700 dollars and then the downswing starts that is after winning the seven hundred dollars, they come back to nil.
The amount at which the downswing starts is always 700 (for example), thus there think that the game is being fixed. But is this a programmed problem or is it all in their head? It’s amazing what will manifest in reality when you truly believe it will.
The players that claim online poker is rigged because they can succeed in real life games but not online are simply missing an important point of the whole game. Online poker is a whole different world. Sure, it’s poker, but the way you win, the way you make money, it’s complete different.
You need to learn the ins and outs of winning online, and avoiding the bad beats of associated with online poker being rigged.
