For the record Chip, I don't think it's rigged, just that you do see some awful funny things happen.

I agree, for the most part with what TP has to say on the matter. I think the biggest reason you don't have those things go your way is you don't donk off all your chips with bottom pair and a 3 kicker in the first place.

I felt the same way recently as the original poster so I honestly got the entire hand history from a SNG I had just played and finished 2nd and felt like I should have won if it weren't for the bad beats, including the last hand where I had AK against 56 that made a straight. Anyway, I went back through and looked at all the hands I played and I honestly thought I got a TON of tough breaks that game, as it turned out I went to a coin flip as the slight favorite 5 times that game when the chips went in the pot (I was big chip leader most of the way at 5-handed) I lost all 4 of those 5 coin flips and won the only one where I went in as the dog (small stack all-in and I was BB and pot committed).

The way I see it I should have won 3 of those coin flips instead of 1 and should have lost the one I went in behind.

All things considered I remember this game as being FULL of tough beats when in reality it was probably pretty normal, if anything I got the short end of it by a tiny bit, but not nearly as much as I thought.

This is partly a brag HH and it does have somewhat to do with this thread.
I would imagine that this poker_24h guy may join the ranks of

And just to add to the "rigged" thread...
I personally think "Live Poker" is rigged.
I witnessed 5 yes, 5 sets of QUADS over a span of 10 hrs at the 5/10 table yesterday.
YIKES!
Guess who started it off?
I hold 6-6 Flop is J-J-4
I being the wonderful idiot that I am decide now is a perfect time to put a move on this asian chick.
so I raise the flop after she bets it.
Turn is a rag she bets I raise she calls.
I guess I had better quit with this stupid move of mine....
River is a six... oh a wonderful six.
She leads out I reraise she reraises. I think oh crap. she has a full house with Jacks over so I call.
She flips over the Jacks.
I pout.
