OK, so I don't believe any of that "online poker is rigged crap." This was pretty amazing though. It's pretty much a dream hand, turning a straight flush when you're up against the Ace-high and King-high flush. I'm not sure what the King-high guy was thinking, but the Ace guy got the picture and didn't cap the river. Earning bonuses sure is fun!
