You would think it would be easy to verify what you are saying.

I WILL NOT BE PLAYING AT MANSION.

Online Poker needs to be regulated by an independant third body. As poker players, we should be able to send inquiries to this third body and have them deal with the online provider.

Right now, there is no way to be able to say that online poker is 100% legit. It APPEARS that it should be legit, but there is no way to know for certain.

I am beginning to feel a bit uncomfortable playing online due to the sheer volume of people saying online is rigged. Presently, I've encountered a number of "You've got to be kidding me" hands. I realize we play more hands online, but in brick and mortar, these bad beats seem proportionately smaller.

Plus we have to deal with hackers, collusion, bots, software aid programs.

Getting skeptical..
