Pocket Pair situations

[BurnleyMik]

This may have already been posted or something similar may have been posted. It may well just be me, but when I play online I have noticed that if you are dealt a Pocket Pair in the hole, then you can pretty much guarantee that you are not the only person at the table who has one.

Often 3 PP's are out etc. Is this to generate action between players and increase pots etc? I don't think that it is fixed in anyones favour or anything, I just believe it heklps to increase profits.

This is not nearly as common in the live games I have been playing and at times online it becomes frustrating.

What do you guys think? Have you any opinions on it?

Lol, your going crazy. Play more hands.

This is truly ground breaking work. Kudos to you, sir.

[BurnleyMik]

thanks guys....just an opinion. I play everyday online and at different sites and I still believe the above statement I made.

I definately believe its to generate action and create bigger pots, thus bigger rakes etc.

threads like this pop up every couple weaks. The people posting are usually ridiculed. Online poker is not fixed.

(but I do a code to see everyone's hole cards......PM me for details)

LOLOLOLOLOL. Ok ok. Like I say, I do not believe its fixed in any players favour, I just believe its used to get more action at the tables. I expected to be ridiculed by the narrow minded, but just wanted opinions, not insults or pointless comments. I could be way off the mark, its just my experience thats all.
