Another conspiracy theory thread (Don't open if you don't know the secret handshake)

[Penguinfan]

If you look around the internet on various poker forums it's no secret that the higher volume MTT players hate the payout structure on Stars these days. They pay out too many places, in one of the recent Sunday $215's the last group to cash got $187, WTF? How do you make the money and still lose money.

The theory is they want to keep as many people with money in their accounts as possible so more tables/tourneys are being played and thus, more rake.

Another example:

A $20 180 man game pays out $1080 for first place, recentlly an early morning $20 MTT got 210 players and first place got $997, WTF??

So OBVIOUSLY Stars wants to keep more people with money in their accounts despite numerous complaints from the players.

If they are willing to do this, don't you think it MIGHT be possible that the RNG is tweaked just a bit to do the same?

Further, UNDENIABLE PROOF:

Last night at a live 1/2 NL game I had:

AK vs AQ hold up
AA vs KK hold up
AA vs QQ hold up
QQ vs JJ hold up

No way that happens at Stars, ever. I say this is undeniable proof Stars is rigged. You can't argue with the facts!


Seriously though, the payout structure is a joke and needs fixed at Stars.

Many people won't be convinced by your undeniable proof. However, since you are so absolutely convinced, I imagine you have cashed out your Stars account and have moved on to sites more reputable than PS.
