I don't believe any sites are rigged, however the things on pokerstars get sick sometimes.

I usually play the multitable sit n go's, and all can't count how many times my 10 to 1 favorites get burned. I don't really mind the bad beats as opposed to really poor play.

For instance a guy is all in for barely any chips - this is on the bubble, I"m in the small blind and flat call, the BB raises 4BB on me. I fold, only to have him show K 5 off. They spilt the pot, which I would have won. And I end up busting out on the bubble after the small stacked tripled and doubled up.

And then there's situations where people call 5xBB raises preflop with really ugly hands. Eg. Me 10 10, villian K 6. Flops K 10 3. We end up all in. Turn K. River 3.

The thing that gets me shaking my head the most is when a huge stack decides it's time to double up everyone on the table. They make some of the most insane calls...and you can only hope to pick up a hand in time and finally don't get cold decked for the hand.

Maybe I should start going to the higher buy in tourneys...maybe I will be able to read wth they're doing. =P
