Default Re: Am I being rigged by Full Tilt Poker or is this normal variance?

I have a gut shot straight, need a 6. Small bet on the turn from villain, I call as it's cheap and may be a pop at the pot with nothing. Turn a blank, another small bet from villain. I call. River a 6. I've made a straight! Great. Villain bets $100 into pot, I re-raise him all in.....he flips over a full boat (he needed the 6 to make a boat).

Yeah, Full Tilt rigs big draws vs. big hands all the time. That was a gutshot on a paired board, right?

Villain had 56. He had trip 5s before I hit my straight. When the 6 came, it gave him a full boat but it also gave me the straight. I put him on an overpair or trips but not the boat. I mean, he could have had 45?!?! Or A5. He was also a donkey so that could mean K5 too.

I am bemused by the whole FT thing....I see players like BlueOceans winning $5K in one session or $5K over the weekend. Cheeeaat took 3.5K the other day (he also made that AAA88 to take $1200 out of my stack). These guys are regulars...do they lose?
