thanks 4 the tip, i play on williamhill poker, which i find a total con! skilled players have absolutly no advantage. also i find is that if you have a made hand, it will give you cards to make your hand better so you think u are nearly a certain winner, but the other player will have needed that card to beat u!! basically to make u lose your money quicker. a total con!!

1. If you believe William Hill to be a con, then why are you still playing there?
2. I doubt very much that it is a con.
Since the Absolute Poker scandal nobody can deny that unscrupulous behaviour can occur. But this was one of the site's owners playing against people whose hole cards he could see. And he was found out by the statistical analysis of several professional players.
This is one of the main reasons that all 'on-line poker is rigged!' claims are not true. Almost all professional players use Poker Tracker, Poker Office, Hold 'Em Manager or another piece of software doing the same job. I use Poker Tracker (although I'm certainly not a professional player). These applications record every hand that the player plays. Their cards, the cards on the flop, turn, and river, and their opponents cards if the hand goes to showdown. Pros have hundreds of thousands of hands saved. I'm an occasional player and I've only had Poker Tracker for a couple of months, but even I've got about 5,000 hands saved. If the software was rigged, if the cards were coming down due to any reason beyond blind chance, it would be immediately obvious to the dozens (hundreds?) of people playing 30, 40, 50 hours a week.
If you really believe that it's rigged then get one of these programs (they all have free trials and you can download a keygen or crack easily enough if you don't want to pay after that), record all of your results, and check it out. I'm positive you'll find that it all averages out, and you were just remembering the times when you had a bad beat.
I have to ask why the sites would even want to do this? The players are playing against each other, not the poker room. The poker room has no reason to care who wins or loses, they get their money from the rake no matter what.
In other words, don't worry about it being rigged, 'cause it ain't. Just shuffle up and deal!
(Heads off to play a few more of the $7.50 super turbos on Full Tilt. Man I love those things)
