Why is it that some people are able to consistently beat this site? Because I run into players at almost every table I play that if you look up their statistics on sharkscope, you will find they have positive ROI's over thousands of tourneys. This is not the majority of the players of course as it is tough to beat the rake, but still they are there on the site having played thousands of games and showing thousands of dollars in profits.

Don't get me wrong; I would never feel safe playing in an online ring game- all it takes is a couple of colluders and you are upside down on your odds to win. But for everyone to suggest that the tourneys are somehow rigged or juiced, I don't see that, and I dont get that. A one table tourney takes about the same amount of time to finish every time, same with multitable tourneys. And to the guy that said the deal is juiced at the freaking free tables, do you even know how stupid that sounds?

I don't notice anything strange with the deals or knockouts that would make me think that the site is trying to speed things up. I do see a lot of dumb play out there, which of course results in a lot of bad beats ( and I have suffered PLENTY), but I recognize this as a good thing.

Look, I believe there have been hacks that have allowed people to cheat (they are updating software frequently I suspect in part to combat this), and there are probably some very sophisticated bots. But if you want to convince me that the deal is skewed on these sites you're going to have to come up with a statistical hand analysis or some real evidence. It should be easy enough to do as there are plenty of hand tracking softwares available. But please, don't give me this "I am a good player but I always lose to Donkeys" stuff because as far as I know, you're not that good.

Well, you crybabies can get to calling me names now, I MUST work for the site!

P.S.- the guy who posted the a-2 crap crap unsuited hand has no idea how to play Omaha Hi Lo
