but there members here at po that have made mad cash at carbon, i dot think any poker would cheat liek that or they would be closed by now. i know two or three members that have over 200 bucks and climbing. so maybe it is all in your heads and you guys are just ruing bad. but conclusion no way or they wouldnt be here.

because online poker is slightly manipulated, its not completely random. it is designed to induce ACTION. live poker is so much better its ridiculous in my opinion. i just play online to waste time really, but it still angers me when i get rivered or coolered because i am a competitor and i like winning. yea i can be a sore loser, as many can be, but i try not to get too worked up about online poker (esp micro stakes and freerolls) because i know it is wired to induce action, a lot of times at the expense of the better hand and/or the better player

I challenge you to a question. How often do you play a hand online that you wouldnt play in a live casino. Now take the number of hands you play in a casino vs the number of hands online. Online a raised pot preflop has at most 3 maybe 4 people see the flop. IN a live casino it is atleast 4 most likely more. Of course a flop is going to have cards that induce action. Just step back a second and think about it logically.

im not old enough to play in a casino, but i do play at charity events where you only have to be 18 and i know at even the lowest levels of sng's, ppl know what they are doing and in a raised pot you see 2-3 guys max on most occasions (there are, of course, a few exceptions). just look at the wsop... 75% of the pots were won prior to the flop. i also think that is why you run into badbeats in freerolls and low stakes tourneys/cash tables so much, you got dumb donkeys who play any 2 and end up rivering a miracle - but to me it jsut seems like it happens way too much, and it is too predictable. i know when im getting sucked out, b/c the suckouts come in bunches... cant say the same about live on a personal level... i have run bad but not where every pot i play no matter what cards i have i am getting rivered or coolered (for days on end)... i understand where you are coming from prawney, but i believe online is manipulated slightly
