I agree--Stars is rigged or the program runs towards certain players/hand.

Honestly, I never win on there and now play on Fulltilt and Mansion and run very well.

I think the truth will come out on Stars,it has to. The bad beats are just insane, totatally sick. I think they have prop players who can see the cards or something.

I'm going to write a movie about rigged poker and the fact that an evil kabal of hot lesbians is behind it. They own all the sites and control the doom/boom switches and are secretly plotting against us. Think a mix of rounders, enemy of the state, and where the boys aren't 6,8, and 13.

I know all about running bad on Stars.

I recently moved there but I've already played about 150 k hands there.

10 k hands means very little.

I'd say that even 50 k hands doesn't anything close to accurately indicate your true winrate.

My 150 k hands there started with a stretch of about 60 k hands break-even, followed by about 40 k hands of nice results, followed by 20 k hands of suckiness, followed by 25 k hands of greatness, followed by 5 k hands of crap.

Overall my winrate sucks, but at least I'm making a little money.

Hmm. I think I had a point. Yup, I sent Stars an email after my 60 k losing streak asking them to turn off the doomswitch, and got a similar reply. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Thinking logically I refuse to believe it's rigged, but I know very well that feeling of running so incredibly bad that you kinda have to wonder...

I still play there, though - and my plan for 2007 is to make the biggest 1-year samplesize in the world (Meaning, I think I'm possibly going to play more hands than anyone else in the world next year), so if it's rigged I should have a database of 2 million+ hands to use to prove/disprove it [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

(Well, if I still run bad after another 50-100 k hands, I'll probably move my play to the other sites where I have a history of winning more)

Anyway, I love the site in general. Great fpp deal as a supernova, quick and reliable software, great support, etc

The only bad thing about it is the way I run there.

I guess what I'm trying to say is: Don't let a 10 k losing streak get you down, because then what will you do when you have a losing streak lasting 60 k hands, which I recently had [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
