In the tournements I've played the guy with the least money loses the all-in 9 out of ten times. Often ahead in the hand, yet loses. Very interesting!

i look and read what people are saying about bad players and beats being part of the game-i agree that sometimes you may have a more inexperinced or loose player getting a few chips here and there but people the fact is that you cant survive a 2500 person tourney and take 5 bad beats nevermind taking 5 bad beats every single 18 person tourney-if you read differently theyre playing high stakes and not 10-100 dollar tourneys or thay work for the site-full tilt stands by the integrity-lol-ill tell you what put some pros into the average tourney and they wont come close to the money 9 out of 10 times-fact of the matter is this if the pros took beats like the average joe does in these tourneys they would find a new line of work-lets face it people-when youre a 4-1 favorite and you lose 9 out of 10 of those hands (all ins of course) somethings wrong in pokerville- name is ironic FULL TILT by the way look at the site ratings and see why this one ranks where it does-hmmmm?

You are wildly saying 9 out of 10 times. These things happen in live play. They are the nature of poker. You have no proof or statistics. This is just how you feel. It helps that you forget the times you win. I have actually played here enough and I don't feel the that it is "rigged". I have put in a ton of hands and done well in many tournaments. You are either just running in a bad streak due to variance, or you are a bad player looking for an excuse. Either way the site is not rigged and you are jumping to conclusions because you lost.

Lol, Fish again blaming there losses on the site being "Rigged."
That cracks me up. At least this thread was good for a laugh I guess

I have put in many hands in tournaments on Full Tilt. And times I even have the worst of it and win as the shorstack. Over a long period of time I have never once felt it was rigged, or that small stacks where being punished. You are speaking from an extremely limited sample size, and you are conveniently forgetting the times small stacks win, so you can help support your 9/10 claim that has no basis.

Oh great great first post.

I have played a lot on this site and I feel that it is not rigged but sometimes I wonder if the cards are totally "random". lol

I would like, just once, to see somebody support one of these conspiracy theories with actual statistics. Not just saying 9/10 times, but show at least 1000 hand histories/analises (spelling?). Show some proof, don't just pick a number that sounds good, like 9/10. PROOF IS KING!!! Also, please stop making these threads - there's far too many of them as it is.

And another thing: of course the all-in tends to lose. By the time a short stack has to go all in, they're usually getting desperate, playing hands that they normally would not play as strongly as they need to when they have <10 BB left. They have to go all in with hands that normally they'd make a small raise (or even limp) with and often fold on the flop. That's why being short-stacked is a disadvantage - you tend to lose!

Not to mention that there's usually a reason this person has so few chips in the first place.... maybe it's because they suck, and that's why lose. Smile
